Bruce,
Thanks a lot for bringing this to the forefront (although it's been kinda
lost in the shuffle now). I saw this the Friday you posted it and went
through the galleries you highlighted but I did not have time to respond and
I forgot about this until yesterday. Anyway...

Yes, going to have to use that. ;] I think the simple, bold colors work
well for that costume too.

I do too. Question in regards to that "power" though: I can comprehend how
that can "work" but I don't understand how garments and stuff can as well
(like the girl's bookbag in X-Men--she was not even wearing it)??!!? I
know, I know it is just fictional but I would like some help. Anybody???

Yes, neat effect there. I also like the guy with the claws--I'm assuming he
directs them and if so Robert did a good job of portraying that.

very COOL! I also love that water character. I had not looked through the
rest of the gallery last time...I think this pic
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=396242 is AWESOME! It's
just an excellent setup! All he needs now is for all the plates of lava guy
to be translucent *malicious grin...Swipe!*

Yea, great idea there. I also like Gambit, even though his costume seems
more goofy.

Another thing: The DragonMan (?)
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=396250 works very well. But
do you have any idea what that trans piece is he's standing on?
I really enjoy seeing this type of creations. I guess had considered
creating my own superheros before but never put ideas into actions. It's
really neat to think about different uses of parts and work from there.
Thanks again.
