The Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 modding community has been kicking work into overdrive the past few months now that they can finally import custom character models, and some new blood is also getting in on the action.

Artist and modeler Revan-Bug is currently hard at work on a handful of new UMVC3 mods including X-Men's Colossus and Sabretooth, The Punisher, Star Gladiator's Hayato, and Marvel's / Avengers' Kang the Conqueror, which are all looking pretty slick so far.

Most of the characters Revan-Bug's selected thus far were at one time playable in the series as late as Marvel vs. Capcom 2, but they failed to make the cut for MvC3 for one reason or another — though did at least show up as cards in the game's Heroes and Heralds Mode.

The only exceptions to this are Kang and Frank Castle, who appear to be using / based on Doctor Doom and Chris Redfield respectively, which are certainly fitting choices.

Hayato is clearly copying the style of the Striders while Colossus and Sabretooth appear to both be using Haggar as a starting point.

We don't know how deep Revan-Bug plans to go with putting together custom move sets for these works in progress, but it sounds like they intend to at least give new moves to the big X-Men fighters.

Thus far, the only mod they've released is a Classic Thanos skin for Tabs' own Thanos mod, and the rest aren't currently available to the public yet.

It's going to be very interesting to see how the next wave of Marvel 3 mods turn out with others currently working on fresh fighters like Juri Han and Captain Commando too.
