If you type in gi joe card and the code name and search google images that seems to be the best bet.
Here's an Altitude from there. It's a little dark. There's a brighter one out there but it has a glare on it. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-mQ29vuljz9...tude%2B001.JPG |

Trazz, the pick you have of Chameleon is actually Ronin from the IDW Cobra series. She had the code name first, but dropped it after she left the Joes temporarily.

Trazz,
Thanks for the graphics! I think there are a few on the 150-200 list who are still either squashed (horizontally) or squeezed (vertically). The worse ones to my eyes squashed are Rampart, Munitia, Topside, Lightfoot, Dee-Jay, Red Star, and S.A.W. Viper. Big Bear, Scoop and Countdown also look slightly squashed. There may be others that aren't so bad. Squeezed, there are two bad ones: Salvo and Overlord. Maybe also Crankcase. Great work, though! And thanks for picking this up!

Stalker, I was suspicious about a lot of those as well.
Also, Nunchuk is definitely squished horizontally compared to his original art. And Red Dog and Taurus are squished vertically. There's a better scan of Taurus's file card on YoJoe.com too: http://www.yojoe.com/images/resize/w...oes/taurus.jpg Aspect ratios are my pet peeve ever since I saw Buckaroo Banzai on TV in the '80s, and they squished the end credits horizontally to fit all the text on the screen. Problem is there were shots of characters walking over the end credits, and they were all turned into super tall, stick-thin figures. Which I found hilarious-looking at the time.

Well wherever you find yourself, there you are...
I will work on finding better pics for these, many of these were smaller than the frame width when cutting out bubble/words/deforms on the card art. If you want to speed it up, post links in here to artwork that is bigger than 320x240 and doesn't have marks, bubbles or wording in the slice. That would help tremendously. |

I replied in the other thread but I'll reply here so you see one of them. I just used that art because I couldn't find art that was distinctively Chameleon and clean. All the pictures were just Baroness since for all intents she was Baroness. Whenever Lifeline answers about whatever was voted I can change it. I will still have to keep modding it to add in the next 6 votes. Thanks for the feedback.

Maybe look up "Erika La Tene," she is the Chameleon.

I think all the changes look great now. The only ones that still need an aspect ratio fix I think are the ones I mentioned after Stalker's post, Nunchuk, Taurus and Red Dog.
I'd also prefer a slightly wider shot on Dragonsky myself to show off more of his two-toned purple. I thought a wider shot showing Appel in a CG uniform would be nicer, but those are hard to find. Someone would probably need to do a new scan from the comic for that. This looks like a clean Nunchuk csrd: http://www.yojoe.com/cardback/92/ima...huknffront.jpg These might be good enough for the Renegades: Counter-X >> G.I. Joe >> G.I. Joe >> Red Dog Counter-X >> G.I. Joe >> G.I. Joe >> Taurus This shows more Dragonsky: http://generalsjoes.com/wp-content/u..._Dragonsky.jpg Also, a wider shot on SAW Viper might be doable from this: https://theleakysuitbrigade.files.wo...016g60_572.jpg You can probably get Barrel Roll more centered using ths club reveal image: http://news.hisstank.com/wp-content/...1322804336.jpg Was thinking Payload V2 might be a better choice for Payload, since the V1 art is so funky: http://www.finalfrontiertoys.com/med...rd_Payload.JPG The problem with Freefall is you'd have to accept discoloration from the bubble to even get as much of the image as you have now from the front of the card. http://images-02.delcampe-static.net...39/275_001.jpg Last edited by JediJones; 07-05-2015 at 03:42 AM.. |
