Palatinus' OverPower Forum

So I'm working on a new character right now who isn't that mainstream so getting images for her is hard, but what delays the search process even worse is that I end up reading whole arcs of comics because I got sucked into the story...lol

Anyways, here's Artemis, she was Wonder Woman's Successor for a time, then died as Woman Woman, Diana went to hell and got her back...

Artemis has been added above

Glad to see you back at it, chuu!  Congrats on winning Peace Bridge 2015, BTW.

Nice take on Artemis.  Different from the one I found years ago - 1765 with IA to play Wonder Woman non-OPD specials.  While that IA is the same as your "Wonder Woman" special (ignoring all other homemade cards), but it makes it easier to use Artemis without Wonder Woman on the team.  (I would not use the "WW" special otherwise.)   Nice pics, mostly good card effects - a great job.

Let us know if you're looking for suggestions/ideas for more babes.

It was nice to put out a new characters, it's been quite a while since i've been able to sit down and work on one.  I gave Artemis 8 Fighting since she's beaten Wonder Woman in hand to hand fighting several times.  She's more aggressive, doesn't hold back like Wonder Woman does.  I kind of gave Artemis some mediocre cards because of comments I've gotten saying that all the cards that I give characters are good so it's hard to choose...lol.

Next on the list is Raven since I already have most of the images I need for her...after that i'm not sure since i've pretty much done every Comic Babe that was missing.  Maybe Gamora..

Well, you have Raven & Gamora on tap.  I don't know if Big Barda (never seen done) & Oracle (some have done this one) as single characters would be up your alley.  How far you want to go with this??  I thumbed through my collection of homemades & came up with quite a list of potential candidates for a babe set (almost 80).  I'm sure you've already considered & rejected many for not being "babe" enough or not having sufficient good art work or whatever.  And that's not counting what you've already done or any legacy characters that have specials like Voodoo, who needed a little anyways (although Crystal may be worth it). 

If you're looking for ideas, I could work up a list & message it to you in a couple of days.  Or should I just fill up a bunch of board space and post it here?
The definition of "babe" rests solely in your court!  :-)  Love your work so far, hoping to see more.

I have tried to find enough images for big barda, i usually need 10-12 images per character to come up with the hero card and 7 specials.  I wasn't able to find enough for Big Barda because it's not enough just looking hot, they gotta be in some action shots as well.  I can maybe only use one image where they are just posing...I was going to work on Vampirella, Lady Death and Tarot, but in all the good images they are just posing

Just post up any requests that you might have and i'll let you know if i will or won't do a set for them based on images that I find

I actually had Vamp & Lady Death on my list! 
I'll try to review comic vine for pics for each character before I suggest them.
A question - Is skin mandatory, or is spandex OK?  That alone would shorten the list immensely.

hahaha, spandex is fine, i'm not some kind of smut peddler...

HA-HA-HA!    That wasn't quite what I meant at all.  I just don't consider total spandex to be as "sexy" as a costume.  I'm finding the 10-12 "action" shots to be a more restrictive criteria.
A few that I will submit for your consideration:
Jessica Drew (original Spider Woman)
Red She Hulk (Betty Ross)
Cassandra Sandsmark (2nd Wonder Girl)
Donna Troy (aka 1st Wonder Girl, Darkstar, Troia)
and my list is shrinking fast......

Awesome work as always, Chuu.

I would love to see your take on the Gotham City Sirens: Catwoman, Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn.

We've discussed Big Barda when you helped me with my custom character cards. I really love the job you did fusing two images for the character card itself, but Barda is seriously in dire need of better images to be used for her special cards.

Ya, it's not as easy finding images as you initially think it's going to be.  I'm in agreement with all those ladies if you can find images...from a quick look i can tell Wonder Girl, Donna Troy will ok but iffy on Jessica Drew and Betty Ross...

Based on comic vine alone, I couldn't find enough action pics of any of the characters on my list to recommend.  Obviously comic vine isn't that good of a source, because I didn't find any of the Essense pics you used, either.  I must bow to your opinion, chuu, that you've done most of the doable ones.

So I whittled my list down to 6 characters that I will suggest because I like them, and because I've rarely (if ever) seen them done before.

Sif (Asgard warrior)
Jade (from GL: Kyle Rainer era)
Spoiler (Stephanie Brown, aka Batgirl, Robin)
Magdalena (Image version of Azrael)
Dawn (goddess of birth & rebirth, and of all witches)
last but not least:  Lara Croft (tomb raider)

good luck in whatever you choose!

Now you understand my plight...lol.  Ya, it's pretty hard finding images, and my standard for images is at a whole other level   I spend alot of time looking for images, if don't find much that I need from google i look through comics, all the Essence images came from Red Hood and the outlaws.  I would say that for the following characters 80%-90% of the images that I used came from comics:

Red Hood, Starfire, Aphrodite IX, Fathom, The Angelus, Voodoo, Spartan, Birds of Prey and Artemis

The following are approved (LOL)
Lara Croft - Michael Turner did a run so I know i'll be able to get alot of images
Magdalena - in my Image Comics researching I came across alot of good image with her

To be determined:
Sif
Spoiler
Dawn - I know Dawn and she's very posey as well...lol
Jade

Dawn -

Yes, Dawn was not an action-oriented character.  They can't all be (such as Oracle).  But what poses! 

So it's been a while since i've posted any new characters.  I've been really busy with some not so fun stuff but it's settled down for now.  I'm posting some of the Raven cards i've made so far and will post the other three specials tomorrow.  I haven't made them yet, so after having seen these if anyone has suggestions on how to round her out i'd consider them.  I think her core specials are done, so I need some not so good specials to finish her off..lol
