DJ's HM WIPs-Codename suggestions needed UPDATE 5/21

DarkJedi · **Posted:** Tue Jan 20, 2015 12:19 am

OK, I'm gonna keep posting my finished characters in the other thread in the JOE section, but I am gonna post my WIPs in here.

These will be ones with no names or specialties or in need of some work.

These ones I would like to hear any suggestions on what direction to go with them.

This one I need help on.

I've wanted to do a 'Day of the Dead' style female Dreadnok for some time, but wasn't sure how I could actually do it using HeroMachine.

Well, this is as far as I got.

At this point I have no idea about a codename, or rather, a nickname she can go by.

I'd like something that is more formal. Something with 'La' at the front.

I'm thinking she is from Mexico, got involved with a gang, then met up with the Dreadnoks. Not an active Dreadnok, but more a recruit or prospect.

As I do not speak Spanish, I need some help with a name. I'm just typing words into a translator and seeing what sounds interesting.

La Cuchilla?
La Corazon?
La Luna en Sangre?

I love that design! Quick wiki search on Day of the Dead leads to:
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Calavera_Catrina

Which translates to the dapper skeleton... Might not be a bad place to start for a name.

Ooh, many possibilities. Thanx.

I showed J_man some WIPs of her last night and he let me bounce some ideas off him. Wanna say thanks to him for getting to this design.

Started to do some Corps characters as JOEs and such.

Cross off Gunner O'Grady and Whispering Willie...

28 more characters to do, before I even consider doing any of the new recruits.

Anyone have a favorite color scheme from a Lanard release?

Should I just go with the initial card art?

Mixture of both?

Still need to add the striped shirt. More of a special agent than regular Airborne Trooper.

Saw some foreign comic book covers that had a group of troops dressed similar to Duke.

I like the attitude she has, looking over the sunglasses with a smirk on her face. Could see her crewing the APC, or operating the HAL/Whirlwind/FLAK/MMS, riding around on the RAM, or slapping Clutch in the VAMP, or operating out of the Headquarters.
