I just uploaded the following new items to the Mouth-Standard set in HM3 (clear your browser cache if you don't see them):
I wanted to make sure I got a good "clenched teeth" one, so I put in three. As well as most of the suggestions in the last thread, so thank you for those.

I just added a Khopesh in three parts -- complete, just the blade, just the hilt -- to the HM3 ItemRight-BladesTwo set. Enjoy! If that's the right word for a weapon of death.

I've just updated Tops-MaleStandard (clear your browser cache if it doesn't show up) with the following items from the Replacement Prize list:
There was only a call for one Lab Coat, but I saw the diagonal one while getting reference and loved it too much not to throw it in.
After the jump I'll post the latest version of that list so you can see where we stand.

Two more prizes from the Great Replacement Prize list, the patchwork coat (with sleeves and without) and the gentleman's waistcoat live in Tops-MaleStandard (clear your browser cache if they don't show):
I'll probably do the Lab Coat and Shirt Tied Under the Bust next since I've already got Tops open.
Enjoy!

Every good organization needs henchmen, those loveably expendable front-line shock troops referred to in times gone by as "cannon fodder". Whether you're talking about "Marked for Death" Star Fleet Red-shirts or the tunic-wearing green-clad losers with giant yellow "H" suspenders Hydra runs out to get their butts kicked by Captain America, these guys and gals put it all on the line every day knowing full well they've got a snowball's chance in Hell of making it through any scrape unscathed. And yet, they strap on their ginormous yellow AIM helmets anyway and gamely soldier on.
Not that all organizations with henchmen are evil. I say nay nay! S.H.I.E.L.D isn't shy about trotting someone's weak-kneed little brother out there in a midnight blue jumpsuit to get blasted to death, either.
Your challenge this week is to create henchmen for some larger comics organization. You could use an established group like A.I.M. or the Justice League, or you can use a group entirely of your own creation. Either way, we're not talking unique one-off heavy hitters, we're talking front-line soldiers who dress in uniforms here. For instance, Back in the Day buddy John and I were involved in a long-running Champions campaign. My criminal organization was "Leviathan", built along nautical themes while taking their motivation from Hobbes' vision of a humanity badly in need of someone to take charge. Their lowest level of front-line goons were called Piranha:
The heavy-hitter units were called Squids:
That's the kind of thing, in general, I'm talking about. Here are a few more henchmen to give you an idea of the kind of thing we're talking about:
The contest rules are the same as usual:
No limit on entries this week, so knock yourselves out. Just make them good!

Thanks to the enthusiastic entries for Caption Contest 91! Apparently nothing gets people pumped like a singing Batman. Who knew?
I've gone through all the ones I thought were best, and am once again opening it up to a vote. Whoever has the most votes by tomorrow morning at 8:00 Mountain Time wins! You can vote for as many as you like, but you only get to vote once overall. Good luck everyone!

The last of Imp's "Four items from the replacement prize list" award for taking top honors in Friday Night Fights 2 was "Facial Wrinkles". It's now done and available in "Head-Male-Faces":
The top image is the set of wrinkles, covering the corners of the eyes; bags under the eyes; cheeks; really big bags under the eyes; mouth to nose crease; jawline; chin / lower lip; upper lip; and forehead. The bottom image is a full-tricked-out old dude face. For the bilateral items like crows' feet and cheeks, I only did half the face, so you can further customize it how you like by turning "Multiples" on for the Head slot and using the Flip button.
Hope you like 'em! This should close out the suite of items for Imp. I think we all owe him thanks for giving up his grand prize for those the community had earlier voted on, very noble of you sir.

I've just added the following legs to Body-Male-Alternate at the very end as Imp's second prize for winning Friday Night Fights:
And here it is with a torso attached:
How you're going do do things like put boots on those legs, I honestly have no idea. But it's there for those of you who voted for it!
