Well, I guess “cryptic” or “blatantly obvious” depends on how well you know me. :lol:

So what if the Ghostbusters of the new reboot looked slightly more classic? I thought the actual 2016 look was just fine, but I have to play every now and then.

[http://ectozone.deviantart.com/art/Ghostbusters-2016-1984-Style-607830067](http://ectozone.deviantart.com/art/Ghostbusters-2016-1984-Style-607830067)

It’s the same profile pictures I’ve been posting the last couple weeks; it’s slightly more than a recolor of those, as I plugged in the classic [proton packs](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack) and adjusted the nametags (where applicable). The shin guards are still there, but without the reflective stripe the dark color obscures the details and makes it easy to imagine they’re just work boots.

So I had that recolor of the GB2016 cast that had them in uniforms looking closer to the ones in the 1984 and 1989 movies, right? Did anyone who knows me think I’d leave it at that, and not try something a little more colorful?

[http://ectozone.deviantart.com/art/Ghostbusters-2016-Get-Real-608236210](http://ectozone.deviantart.com/art/Ghostbusters-2016-Get-Real-608236210)

Really, the big question became “Which colors with with Ghostbuster”? Patty was easiest–like Winston, she’s the tough, “street wise” member of the team. The others were a little rougher…I could find ways to justify just about any combination of Abby, Erin, and Holtzmann in Ray, Egon, and Venkman’s colors. So here’s what I went with:

Abby is the committed believer. So, Ray’s uniform, the one closest to the (original) movie standard. (As McCarthy is seen as the “star” of the movie, I could have easily justified using Venkman instead)

Erin is Abby’s old friend but something of a skeptic at first. I went with Venkman (though as the physics genius Egon could have worked just as well).

[Jillian Holtzmann](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/characters/jillian-holtzmann) looks too much like Egon to not get his colors, though as the enthusiastic tinkerer I could have easily justified Ray’s as well.

I may try recoloring the more accurate 2016 uniforms, but I’m not sure how well the colors would work with all that orange reflective striping. If I do like the results, expect another variant I guess :lol:

I can’t fault the logic of your choices, and they look pretty cool in the RGB colours. 🙂

I said I might try it, and I did–the GB2016 crew recolored like the RGB characters, but with the more accurate GB2016 orange reflective striping and PP-16 packs.

Not as garish as I feared, I admit.

(Probably the last group picture for the forseeable future, though)

Hah!

And somehow, Louis’s awful jumpsuit actually works on him. It’d work with his character if he were actually colourblind. 😛

(Blows dust off old thread)

Due to having [Separated At Rebirth](http://www.ectozone.com/ff/xgbsar1.php) now hosted at [the Ectozone](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/fans/websites/the-ectozone), I did some updates to the [Anti-Ghostbusters](http://www.ectozone.com/images/anti-gb.php) page.

Now you can see the Ghost Clones as they would have appeared in the 2003 story, having been created from a set of old 1991 [flight suits](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/uniform). (As [Rover once suggested](http://www.ectozone.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=463), they could have come from the 1991 episode “Not Now, [Slimer](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/characters/slimer)”, which matches the time period whether Ben did that on purpose or not). Sure, yeah, they’re just another bunch of crummy recolors, but it’s something.

Also, I’ve been putting up “covers” to my stories fairly regularly at [Deviantart](https://www.deviantart.com/ectozone); the two pictures for “Picture Imperfect” were two of the best ones I’ve done, I think.

Just noticed that both Ghost Clone Rays have the same style of [Proton Pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack).

The picture of “[Citizen Ghost](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/real-ghostbusters/citizen-ghost)” Ray is actually new (well, a new recolor) so I did the pack in the same lighter dark grey shade I’ve been using lately to stand out against the black background. I keep thinking about going back and recoloring just about all of the older pictures with the slightly lighter shade, but that would take a lot of work. (The previous pictures still on the server [here](http://www.ectozone.com/images/antiray-830.gif))

The main reason I redid it is that the older picture had Ray with his ecto-visor and work gloves, and he didn’t in “Citizen Ghost”.

Thanks for the comment!

Ah, sorry… I meant the other 1st gen clone images all had the blue [Proton Pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack), Ray’s 1st gen however has the grey Pack.

So I decided to have some fun with my small-p photoshop program (TheGimp)

So first, I took the promo pictures of the new [Fright Features](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/toys/kenner/fright-features) figures of the original Ghostbusters, and did what Hasbro didn’t–colored in their elbow pads and t-shirts.

 ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/b/d/bd096611370cf340d88175683f7299024129ebd2.jpeg)

If you have any familiarity with [my web site](http://www.ectozone.com/), you can guess what I tried next:

 ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/1/c/1c1be2a34283762a160d72570cfeea61e6c08676.jpeg)

So then I took the promo picture of the [Afterlife](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/ghostbusters-afterlife) Fright Features figures. I didn’t have to fix their elbow pads and t-shirts because, er, for THOSE Hasbro painted them in.

But imagine a slightly different universe…say the one in the picture two paragraphs before this one:

 ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/1/c/1c3af298a7cb9c07d5bfd5281bb82e6328528906.jpeg)

Version 1

Phoebe is the only one that _had_ to be those colors, because there’s a “Spengler” [nametag](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/gb1-name-tag-patch) on it. I kinda went with the obvious for Lucky; Trevor we gather is mechanically inclined, and Podcast is the relatively media-savvy one, so this set reflects that.

 ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/4/b/4bb11d21b22d25f9f10604cb6139d630f66b698b.jpeg)

Version 2

Or maybe since Trevor is played by the “big name” of the GB:A kids, and Podcast is the enthusiastic believer, this way maybe?

Then of course one other idea…

 ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/8/f/8ff430bdfbc614497dec388bb8497f5e0c70a40d.jpeg)

Version 3.

We know they find the [flight suits](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/uniform) in Egon’s house…what if they’re all wearing former Spengler flight suits?

Just a little bit of something I did to amuse myself, and stretch myself with the photoshop program.

🙂

So after actually having seen the movie, it looks like this would be the right one:

 ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/7/c/7caddc596552f5558bcf03b8ca5339ade113e259.jpeg)

Phoebe clearly wear’s Egon’s suit, the others are indeed unmarked “generic” [flight suits](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/uniform).

“Soon” is now “now”

We start with Trevor, the older of Callie’s two children–he was born in February 2006, is a bit of a gearhead (he gets the ECTO-1 going again with some help from the ghost of his grandfather, a guy named Egon), and is played in the movie by [Finn Wolfhard](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/finn-wolfhard) of _Stranger Things_.

I suck at drawing real people, but this didn’t come out too bad. I actually put in a small stylistic touch or two that I also use when drawing Egon (even though my depictions of Egon are more RGB based, and Trevor doesn’t fit into [the Ectozone](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/fans/websites/the-ectozone) universe because that Egon doesn’t have kids until 1999).

[Lucky Domingo](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/characters/lucky-domingo) is the daughter of the Sheriff of Summerville, Oklahoma, and her family’s lived in the town for four generations. Trevor is immediately smitten with her. She eventually realizes that Trevor’s sister Phoebe isn’t nuts, and helps out against the impending supernatural catastrophe–and ends up briefly possessed in the process. She’s played in the movie by [Celeste O’Connor](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/celeste-o-connor).

So next up is the strange young man known only as “Podcast” because, well, he runs a podcast, “Mystical Tales of the Unknown Universe”. It’s devoted to conspiracy theories and other weird things like, um, ghosts, so he becomes invaluable to understanding what’s going on during the unfolding events of _[Ghostbusters: Afterlife](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/ghostbusters-afterlife)_. And at the end of the movie the identity of his one subscriber is revealed–an occult book store owner named [Ray Stantz](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/characters/ray-stantz). He’s portrayed in the movie by young actor [Logan Kim](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/logan-kim) (one of the only people who knows the character’s real name–it wasn’t revealed in the movie).

I’m not totally happy with this one…I keep feeling like I made him look too much like RGB Ray…but it’ll do for now.
