Props for the stories

Wednesday, February 20th, 2008

Hey,

I just wanted to see whether you guys had any thoughts on how to make some pretty realistic props.

We have superheroines bending metal bars, lifting heavy objects, bending guns and knives in half, etc. But I’m always on the look out on how to do it better.

Metal bar bending

I was watching Greatest American Heroine at h and I really liked the way that the metal bar they used looks real when she twisted it round that guy:

I’ve also seen on the Powerbeauties site a girl bends a real bar:

Oh, and on Astro Girl:

Bar bells

Then I started looking at realistic looking really heavy dumbells, and again Powerbeauties looked good:

I also like the dumbbells at Powerbeauties: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxdseG0uYKs

Other effects

I guess there are loads of special effects that are possible. Gun bending, bending the tip of a knife, crushing objects, etc, etc. Would really love to hear what would interest you guys, and how you think it could be done.

Wonder Babe update

Monday, February 18th, 2008

Hi guys,

Sorry about the lack of an update this week, but we’re right back on track with the third and final chapter of Wonder Babe: Interception.

Wonder Woman pictures

Following on from chapter 2, this latest chapter sees the stunning blonde assassin trying to take down Wonder Babe, but failing to do so as the dark haired girl realises her power and domination over her attacker and shows her who’s boss.

As I’m sure you’ll agree, both super women in this chapter are absolutely stunning!
