Enhanced Walls II

Hmm - I like X-Men (Dark Phoenix, anyone?) I don't like what has happened to the franchise of late (the movies are nice, though).

Wouldn't be too difficult to make icons for heroes - since they are basically naked (i.e. no need to draw clothes).

You made Juggernaut? Wow! That is a big icon...

Edit: Instant Dark Phoenix icon... (Recoloring, etc...)

X-Men That is a very nice icon.

There was a cool FRUA design by Nol Drek about the Dark Phoenix Saga. I think it would be fun to do a Marvel design.

I don't have an icon for Juggernaut yet, but I do have a model to work with.

Here's some icons I did a while ago (not quite the way I'd do them now, or as high of quality as I'd like). Some of these are using images from video games.

I can't change out that flippin' Rhino icon to put the unmasked (alpha that is) version in. Arghh!
So, here he is by his lonesome.

Hey, nice stuff! That is a nice collection of Marvel icons I would make Cyclops taller, though, and Wolvie shorter! (He was what, 5'3", right? I hate how the movies made him all tall now...)

Why is the Rhino's icon so big? (He being smaller...)

I guess Hugh Jackman was used to make Wolverine look somewhat attractive to women. My wife saw the movie first and then was disappointed when I showed her some pictures of Wolverine from the comics...

[Uatu]

Whaat?! Wolverine was a STUD, even as short as he was, right? (My theory is that there just aren't any short macho actors in Hollywood... The only short actors are comedy (Danny Devito?))

[Dinonykos]

There are a lot of short actors in Hollywood, but they are all afraid of taking the inlays out of there shoes...

Yeah, Cyke could be a couple of pixels taller and Logan a couple of pixels shorter. Like I said, some of these are good and some are old.

According to Marvel, Rhino is 6'5" (not including the horn) and weighs in at 710 lbs. I think he's about the right height, but he should be stockier for sure.

The problem is Hugh Jackman is 6'4" and James Marsden is only 5'9"; where Wolverine should be 5'3" and Cyke should be 6'1". Brian Singer had said that he would use 'tricks' to make Hugh look shorter and James look taller, but only b/c he wanted Cyke to be taller than Jean and Wolvie to be the same height or slightly shorter. Famke Janssen is 5'11".
Singer said from the beginning that he was 're-interpreting' the X-men.
