Based off a comic book character I made up as a kid.
What do you guys think?
Basically, he's a human who can use the entirety of his brain, since regular people only use like 15%, or some number like that. The longer he fights, the stronger and more superhuman he gets. He has superhuman strength, speed, and stamina. But the more the brain allows him to use his powers, the more animalistic he gets. So when he reaches his 100%, he is no longer in control and only relies on his primal instincts. Once he regains control he forgets everything he's done while not in control.Does he have any supervillains?
He's meant to have the fighting style of an unmotivated teenager, until he reaches 100%, then it's just predator like.
adding Rock to one of the bases. I am now working off of Rouga, Yamazaki, K', and Rock.
Aaaand, for an winpose/intro/taunt should Apex take off the hood? Or should it stay a mystery?
Yea he looks like a char i would like and naw i think you should let it stay a mystery in till you come up with a villain char then for a special intro you let him take off the hood after he defeats his foe
Btw he looks like he would be a good feud for BlueStreak
lol ya know how it is bro. great minds think alike son! no matter cause we all connected bro. lolThanks man, I just started working on the comic. He will be a more combo savy character that also balances between his abilities.
I like the way you doing this dude Panda. Not many people use BBB sprites to make stuff either into something totally new. I just started dipping into using some of their characters for some of my own characters i am creating. I happen to be a cool fan of Big Bang Beat. I also like the backstory on this guy. puts a whole different spin on people having super abilities. SO i really looking forward to all the specials and hypers you gonna have in mind as well checking out all the basic flow. Will he have a fast tight combo chaining system, or will he keep it minimum chains and alot of focus on using his abilities moreso than combo's? @-) @-)
keep up the good work Panda dude. ::salute::
I think his villain should be a polar opposite. A big, strong, man with an INCREDIBLE intellect, and is highly motivated. Won't end the fight until the opponent dies. He can think through every move his opponent will do, and is a master strategist.That's what I had thought of too, but right now, finishing Apex is first on my list.
That's what I had thought of too, but right now, finishing Apex is first on my list.I can help with that one too. :thumbsup:
I'm gonna guess it was Ren Idagawa?
lol yep. well he would have to be the only guess anyway. no one else looks like him in BBB. lol. yeah but i added a different head and hat and goggles and well some other details. The version i am working on now....only uses a portion of Ren. :thumbsup:I already i have a semi-full move set planned out in my head. They are very, whats the word, high schoolish?
I am still trying to get ideas myself to what kind of crazy moves Apex can have with those abilites..other than what you stated. moreso...in my mind what they will look like. I like original stuff big time. love aiduzzi's works to death and some of SeanAtly's characters i just keep in my mugen cause they rock. I def will look forward to your comic too bro. I am amazed at the cool people diving into their own market in comics. thats a great thing. ^:)^
The originality thing is what made me so excited to help out on him with you. And I was wondering; do you have a voice for him yet?I do, but feel free to try and voice some too if you want, heres the list of voices I'd need.
Thanks, i can definetely use the second one. Some of the guys over at Guild made me some too, so this will be the third portrait.
I do, but feel free to try and voice some too if you want, heres the list of voices I'd need.Lol I didn't mean I would do the voice. I mean, I can try, and send you something, but I was going to say I know of someone who would want too, AND might be a good choice.
"C'mon lets go."
"Stop staring at me, it's weird."
"God, this is such a pain in the @ss!"
"Hmph!"
"Come at me, bro!"
"I'll let you take a hit."
"Over here!"
"WWWAAAACCCHHHAWWW!!!"
"Crap..."
"Not done yet!"
"C'mon, get up, I'm not done with you yet."
"Sigh*"
And several grunts or hmphs, as if you're being hit.
You'll make for a good warmup.
Stop now, you don't know what you're getting yourself into.
Turn Around and Walk away. This won't end well for you.
Let's make this quick, i have places i need to be.
OP OP GANGNAM STYLE, bee-otch.
What did you expect?
This was expected.
Maybe next time?
Screaming and Yelling, like they do in Dragon Ball Z.
And that should be it for now

Heres the walk, what do you guys think? The legs were done by CROM Zaxis, i edited the shading a little and then did the upper body.
pretty cool man. his walk reminds me of Kof K kinda walk., i def would take a look at how he moves and work that into this animation ( especially top half too) and edit real good so the top half flows well with the walking animation in timing of the legs and its a wrap. :thumbsup:lol The ONLY instruction I had was to make it look like K's walk! Good eye bro!
Lol alright. And about intros, you are going to need to send me that comic you're working on before I can really start working on some like you asked for. I'm kinda drawing blanks. Oh, and that guy I said might be able to help with the voices is unavailable.I'm still in the basic stages of the comic. (basic outlines and character designing)
First time I've seen this thread, and it's a nifty progression, but I wanted to say something about the backstory. It's an old chestnut that gets passed around that we only use 10-15% of our brain, but that isn't the case. We use all of it, just not all at once. Well, some people do, but that's when somebody's having a seizure. Some food for thought on that end.:-??

Just finished the new heavy kick, made 2 versions: slow and fast.
Which one looks better?
2ed one looks better IMOBecause it's faster?
Because it's faster?
I'm probably gonna add another frame towards the end and make it so the right hand stays down near the belt.
(http://i.imgur.com/R2Ryeg3.gif) Here's the fall I've made now
(http://i.imgur.com/h9RxPzT.gif) And here's what it should look like when its done.
I always am checking this one man!
<----- always comes in to check it out... Pimp hobo semi lurker or whatever yall call it. lol
nice work man. :thumbsup:
1st one of course for the simple fact that it actually looks like a legit launcher lol^^(PM)^ what he just said! d@mn you Skorp for thinkin of and postin it first! \-/o lol
Would this be fair? If during the blur anim Apex would be able to get hit, but it doesn't cost energy?
Or is it better that he can't get hit but it costs energy?
I think that's the question.
And the backstory goes like this, I'll give you the long one. My writing skills are pretty bad btw.
5 Robbers have a bank at gunpoint. They've secured the exits with explosives so no one gets out until they leave. 3 of them are taking and piling money into bags inside the safe of the bank. The other 2 keep their guns pointed at the crowd of people on the ground. Grant Uhlir has his hands on his head and lies right next to the door. He thinks of running outside the bank and yelling for help, but decides against it as it isn't worth being potentially blown to pieces. Anyway, the robbers aren't stealing his money. Their stealing his parents'. And that's okay.
One of the robbers holding the gun tell the other 3 to start finishing up. The second robber starts moving towards the door slowly until the other 4 arrive with the money. Guns aimed at the crowd they leave the building towards a van at the other side of the street. "Stay on the ground for 3 more minutes or the banks coming down!" one of the robbers yells as he leaves the door. Once they're all out and heading towards the van, one unsung hero (idiot), dashes outside and tries to get the money back. "I'll be hero-" he thinks as his body is incinerated by the explosion. A large ka-boom is felt around the area, and a large piece of debris impales young Grant Uhlir through the chest and another knocks his head hard.
Grant is rushed to a hospital, but the trauma from the explosion is almost too great. Through some miracle of god however he lasts long enough to make it to the operating table. The Doctors go to work, but the debris has left it's mark in the spinal cord and cerebellum. The debris has been embedded into Grant's body. The Doctors don't give up though. Little by little they remove the shards in his spine and brain. Finally they finish removing everything from the teenagers body.
Fast Forward 10 weeks.
Grant Uhlir's trauma from the explosion is still in effect, and the doctors had to replace the damaged parts of his body with artificial parts to fill in the gaps in the spine, but not the brain. They can't touch the brain. They still don't know how much damage it sustained from the blast.
Grant has been showing signs of waking up from the coma, but finally he awakes. He can't move, he doesn't know where he is. The last thing he remembers are the Nike sneakers of the man dashing towards the door trying to get his money back. The Nurses try to restrain him but it's of no use.
You see, the part of Grant's brain and spinal cord were struck in just the right positions so the brain and spine would be able to heal themselves up, but not completely. The part of the brain that limits the body so it doesn't hurt itself has been erased from Grant. A normal human can use 15% of the body, but Grant now is able to use his body to the full extent without limitations. His muscles can last longer and are stronger. His mind can process things quicker. He is faster than ever. These abilities of his come with a downside though. Because he no longer has the part of the brain that limits himself, he is now more subject to the feral instincts of any other predator animal. The longer he continues to use his body to it's fullest extent, the more he loses control until he is relying on pure instinct and rage. When he gets to this state he forgets all fighting technique and is more reminiscent to an angry predator (so his abilities are like a double-edged sword) . Once he stops fighting in this predator-animal state will he go back to normal, but forgetting everything he's done during the time.
Once Grant leaves the hospital he becomes aware of his abilities and dons a black hoodie, gray jeans, and Adidas sneakers from Target and becomes the Apex.
Meaning of Apex (taken from Wikipedia): Apex predators (also known as alpha, super, top or top-level predators) are predators with few to no predators of their own, residing at the top of their food chain.
The name Apex refers to Grant being the most advance human who has full control over his body, in contrast to all other people who don't and are regular. Also refers to the predatorial state he takes on when fighting for too long.
What do you guys think? I'm not good at writing well but hopefully this gives you enough of an idea of what he's like.
