Title: Help with X-Men Vectorization
Post by: DeLuSioNal29 on June 14, 2009, 10:04:09 pm: Hi all,

I'm looking for some help with a 6-player X-men restoration project I am working on. I must admit, I'm still learning Adobe's Illustrator, so I'm looking for someone who can help me at a much more expert level. Colossus is proving difficult since he's rather detailed. A few of the other characters are already done.

Here's the thread:

Any help would be fantastic!

Thanks in advance!

If so, I'll scan it at work and email it to you so you'll have a good base to start with.

sorry man.

I downloaded all the old X-men Cartoons and have been watching them recently. They are great! (In their own way) ;•)

That's probably why she's tolerated the huge monstrosity of a cabinet known as X-men that I am working on. ;D

Post by: DeLuSioNal29 on June 16, 2009, 06:02:45 pm: I did some more research. It turns out the EXACT episode this game was based on was:

"Pryde of The X-Men". It was supposed to serve as a pilot, but it was never picked up so it's just a one-shot

You can see it on Youtube here:
