Alan Scott Green Lantern

Just wondering if anyone has ever worked on this Green lantern character costume... I'm looking for a version for any mike bodysuit or painted texture. The design is very simple, but I'm not sure what props I should use for the cape or the boots (are there any boots like that for Poser)

I"d appreciate any info about the best way to go working on this character. thanks!

If you have the M3 morphing hooded cape, you could put a transmap on it that would hide the top half of the hood. Not sure a bodysuit texture would look good for his outfit, though, since his top is always drawn as fairly loose-fitting, especially in the sleeves.

I want to say there's a morphing shirt for M2, or maybe a sweater, may have to morph it for a tucked in look

You're right, there aren't any pointed boot top morphs for any of the Mike boots out there.

I remember making pointy boot transparency maps for Immortal's Mike boots. I think they're in my Batman file. I was thinking of recycling that trans map for an Allan Scott figure. I have some other goodies like Hal's mask and ring, and Mephisto's cape and hood that could be recycled.

I have an image of my Allen Scott GL posted in the gallery now.

There is a freebie boot set like those around. I remember downloading it when I first started using Poser. It's called Rogue Boot for Mike.

I think I got it at renderosity.

Now that you mention it, I remember those boots on Grey Bro's Poser City site. The site is down for renovation.

It would be nice if there were some hero boots with pointed top geometry, but it's not that hard to use transmapping and magnets on Immortal and Gerry's boots to achieve the same look.

Don't the Superman boots in free stuff have pointed tops? They go down at the middle, of course, but that should be simple to morph.

It seems like the whole issue of different conforming boot and glove styles is what holds back many projects with Millenium 2 and 3 figures. I like what DAZ has done with the variations in V3 mask morphs, but their boot and glove offerings are geared more towards fashion characters instead of comics characters.

It's often a good idea to use the older free boots and gloves and parent them to the new figures instead conforming them. It's funny that old gloves and boots will sometimes conform to more advanced figures without modification.

It would be cool if there was a common set of boots with morphs for flat tops(Hal Jordan style), pointed tops(Batman style), indented pointed tops(Superman style), and flaired V-shaped tops (Wolverine style).

You might check some of the older Daz stuff. Wynter had a pair of michel boots that had a front/top similar to that at Daz.

I also have a pair in my Runtime that came from freestuff, that're for Michael 1/2 that look similar - but I can't remember who they're made by atm. I'll have to look.
They came from Renderosity freestuff a couple of years ago... might still be there in the older freebies.

I think I've probably got all the older Mike and Vicky boots somewhere, but none of them are the morphing "God Shoes" that only Al Bundy could dream up.
.....Hope someone else remembers that particular Married with Children show.

I remember it. Mainly because I was a teenager when it was on and it featured Christina Applegate :twisted:

I have this old Poser 3 version still. I'm sure it used to be here before the dissappearance of 3DCC.
