I’m still unsure if my idea fits the theme. I’d like to do a re-design of Frankenstein’s Monster based on the original novel with some extra sci-fyish bits added to him. I figured it should fit because frankenstein is the original sci fi icon, but I wasn’t sure because it’s not a recreation of an existing film/tv version of him. What say thee, oh wise Roberto?

Do it, as RECAST this role.
I would recommend to base the model on a actor, of the past or the present.
Good luck.

I want to make Cristopher Walker like Bounty Hunter from Star Wars…and to make some renders without the helmet…what do you thing?
Can i do scarlett-johansson from IRON MAN 2, and should be the same fashion and the same poses from the movie or can i use different cloths and poses,
And can we get two characters from different movies and put them together in one seen , or two from the same movie like Tom Cruise and his daughter in WAR of the WORLDS
and thank’s Roberto alot …
You can do Scarlett in the same way you saw her in the film.
If yo uwant ot change her look you might want to try to recast another classic SCIFI role with Scarlett.
And I like your idea of doing a collage of different characters, so go ahead.
Good luck!
How far can we go in terms of changing the original design? Can we change around the character features to more suit our taste but still have the character recognizable?
Yo can do that if you wish, just state on the WIP thread that you are doing a modification on the character.
