Description
Note: I'm not currently updating this so I've no idea if it works with WotC, sorry

Adds Facepaints and tattoos themed around X-Men and related comics.
Work in progress and also my first mod so bear with me. Also back up your saves maybe, although I don't think I'll be editing anything too dangerous.

Thanks to Jay and Miles for inspiring me to revisit old X-Men comics! You can enjoy their podcast here at xplainthexmen.com

Current content:

-Tech requirement removed for helmets (cosmetic benefit only)

-Solid arm tattoo (so you can change single arm colours)
-Banded sleeve tattoos (aiming for colossus/cable look)

-Ice facepaint
-Steel Facepaint
-Gambits weird head-sock thing
-Jamie madrox's slightly less weird head sock (hood I guess?)
-2 eyeflashes and a psionic butterfly
-Dystopian future face tattoos (M & Hound lines)

-Extra Real Nations; Cheyenne, Kenya, Vietnam, Unknown (Xcom logo for flag)
-Extra Fictional Nations: Latveria, NovaRoma, Technarchy

Planned:

-Extra Nationalities; considering Genosha, Madripoor, Dystopian Future Hellscape(s). I'd broadly like to keep it within xcom lore though so we'll see.
-More work on the textures to make them look better
-More facepaints & tattoos; feel free to leave ideas in the comments (but bear in mind I'm no artist so keep them simple)
-Maybe domino masks?
-Character Pool full of X-characters with biographies based in the xcom universe

Probably Out of My League:

-3d models. I'd like to add hair and props, plus alter existing armours to allow one armoured arm and one bare. I doubt I'll ever have time to learn how to do that stuff though; I'll link to other mods when I find them.
-Complex textures. I can make simple geometric stuff or broadly alter existing textures, but that's as far as my artistic 'talent' goes. If you want to donate and image for a facepaint or tattoo, let me know inb the comments and I'll credit you appropriately.

Reccomended mods:

-If you're still reading you probably want to check out this mod full of X-Men:
http://www.nexusmods.com/xcom2/mods/14/?
-I'd originally planned to add some skin/hair colours (For Nightcrawler, colossus etc) but it turns out another modder covered this pretty extensively:
More Skin colours by Carmau: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=629368512
More Hair colours by Carmau: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=628668732&searchtext=hair
-Another mod that does something I was planning to try:
All Armour Options by Doodil https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=619230980
-I reccomend making your characters in the character pool and then using this mod to import them; this bypasses the need to level up before your character looks right, and lets you match characters to classes. It also resets your armour choices from the above mod every time you reload.

@Ed583: The fix from reddit is to delete a file that doesn't exist in my installation, so probably not.

A forehead-diamond for Mr. Sinister would be great too!

@brandwmars Good idea! I'll add it to the list.
Working on an update with a couple of facepaints and some Nationality options.

Any chance we could get the Domino eye black?

Thanks! I have read SO MANY X-MEN COMICS in the last year that I've gotten a little obsessive.

I would love "nationalities" that were just like teams instead of counties. A blue-gold X obviously, but something for the New Mutants, Hellions, Reavers, and so on. Because even with accurate ones, like Kenya for Storm, it's still like 80% American.

I'm busy next week and kind of holding off on doing much more until the Anarchy pack comes, but definitely worth talking and seeing what more is needed after that. (New hair!!!!)

@jbfirexcoil: Tried to follow those instructions but it asks me to delete a file that doesn't exist in my installation; I'm hoping this means that my mod doesn't have the extra file size problem but if not I think we might have to wait for a modbuddy fix, sorry.

@arkaeyn Glad you like it, and I love your character pool! I started something similar but you are way ahead of me, and far more organised. If you want any new nationalities let me know and I'll include them, they're pretty easy to do. I like the idea of joining forces, but I won't have much time for modding this week, I'll get back to you on that one.

Hi there, I'm the creator of the X-Men character pool at Nexus Mods. Got about 150 character together now, but have needed some big help with some of these things. If you'd like to talk more or join forces, let me know. This is GREAT and super helpful.
