EDIT EDIT: Redrawn in 2015!:
EDIT: For all you creature art peeps, I'm working on an Ollow concept right this very second and I love it. I'm hoping it'll be done super-soon!
I keep saying I'd draw somebody else. OMG I'M SUCH A LIAR I'M SORREH.
Yeah, I'm not a big fan of Superman's New 52 design. Jim Lee, I love you, and you're a fantastic artist - one of the best out there... but you might want to work on those costume design muscles o' yours, or give the conceptualizing to somebody who can.
Not that I'm saying I have what's necessary to design a costume for Superman that is both different and respectable to the character. I tried though. :/ I wanted to see if I could chalk something out that's better than the high collar v-neck, armor boot concept that is personified in the New 52. Unlike Jim Lee's version, I was trying to keep in mind that he hides the freakin' costume under his civilian clothes, so as usual, I kept the cloth close-fitting and simple (no armor/padding, yo!).
At least it's a little better than Henry Cavill's costume... maybe. I dunno, maybe I like a few things on that version. I can take it in small doses. :T
I forced myself to leave the briefs off, but it was HARD, because I'm sure you all know how much I love his trunks. Dx But you know, there's a sizable crowd out there that is yearning for a more contemporary costume for the Man of Steel. I gave it a shot, trying to make it as streamline as I could and spreading the color around equally without turning it into a complete mess. Don't know if I succeeded though.
I still like the original way more. Yup. :]
Opinions? Does it look bad? Should I try again sometime? I'm not much of a designer myself. xD Tear it up if you want. I appreciate feedback.
