Alright, here is my attempt at redesigning Spider-Man. Much like Superman, I think Spidey's costume is perfection plain and simple. The overall design of his suit is simple, but works perfectly for his character. This is just my idea for a 'what if' with Spider-Man. I'm not sure if I'm 100% satisfied with this design, I might give it another go but Spidey's suit is a tough one to design. Here are a few notes of what I wanted to do with the suit...

- The lenses would be dark to give more of an insect appearance

- The spider emblem and webbing on the costume would be the same color as the dark blue bodysuit so they would 'blend' in seamlessly with the rest of the costume

- There would be an open hole on his wrist so he can shoot webbing (which would be organic)

- The web pattern on his chest would mimic an actual spider web in the sense that the center of the spider web would be behind the emblem....the web pattern would essentially flow outward instead of straight down like the traditional version does

- There would be a patch on his palm where he presses down on to shoot webbing (no reason I just added it)

- The gloves would come to a point slightly below his elbom

- The red area around his abdomen would raise to his mid-ribs on both sides

Anyway here it is...

Get rid of the blue collar (let the red webbed material continue up into the mask) and you've got a winner.
Good design!

Thanks, I would do the same effect with the webbing I just didn't have the time to sit there and color it as so. Glad you guys like it for the most part, maybe I'll go home and adjust the webbing so it flows up the neck.

If it were red and black it would be too close to Ross' design for the film. I think using a darker blue gives him a better sense of 'mystery' but can also keep him fun loving and wisecracking like he normally is. Usually people dressed in black aren't the nicest pepople (Batman, Punisher...etc).

I think dark blue is hard to pull off when combined with other colours like red, it just ends up looking like it was just filled in with paint, which I know is definitely not the case. That's why I think it should be Red and Black, but I see your point.

I really like the black and white costume design. The characters look to me like a very hanna barbera style of animation. Human torch looks a lot like Jonny Quest and invisble woman looks like a blonde Daphne from scooby doo.

That's the downside to sketching in pens, if you have an idea AFTER you've sketched something out then you're kinda stuck. I thought the darker eyes gave him a more mysterious appearance, and they also made him look more like an insect.

So I think I'm going to take someone's suggestion and tackle the Hulk as my next redesign. I am going to avoid the ripped clothing look and go for something more 'heroic' but nothing spandex and no big 'H's across his chest. I like the way they're going with the Hulk in Young Avengers so maybe I'll try something like that.

This is something I did while I was watching Smallville today. It's a redesign I've been wanting to do for awhile now. Since there are 4 main characters to do I thought I'd start off with my favorite of the 4....

Raphael from the TMNT

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v78/OneDisturbedSOB/Sketchbook/Raphael01.jpg

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v78/OneDisturbedSOB/Sketchbook/Raphael-color01.jpg

-I gave him a full head scarf like I've seen some ninjas wear to give more of a mysterious look to him. The entire head/face would be wrapped so only the eyes would be visible.

-I ditched the elbow pads and wrist wraps and went for the entire forearm/hand wrap. Personally I think it gives them that 'tough' look.

-Since Raphael has the smallest weapons (sais) I made them easily concealable. Instead of having them in the front like he always has, I put them in the back at a horizontal angle. The handles of each would come out either side of his belt so he could just reach behind and grab them quickly.

-The belt would be just a basic piece of leather with 4 slots in the back to support the angle of his sais. I also got rid of the stupid letters they used to have on their belts...that was really lame.

I've been wanting to do the TMNT for awhile so I figured I'd start now. I'm not going to go through the entire cast of characters. I'll probably only do the turtles and The Shredder, no April, Casey or Splinter.

Hope you guys like.

Sage, I like what you did with the turtles. It is nice to see the four of them have different looks, after all, they all have different personalities. The variation in the sizes is a nice idea too, they probably wouldn't have mutated to the same "exact" size. Nice work.

While I think the Spider-Man costume is neat....I think it totally takes away what makes Spider-Man's original suit so perfect. The balance between light and dark. Plus...I'm not too fond of the 3 color scheme. Blue, Red, AND Black? He looks a bit TOO colorful.

not a bad idea... maybe make the white spider red or blue though. the one on teh front red, the one on teh back blue. that way you have teh stealth aspect of it.

what i don't get is, if they all know each other's secret identities, and the only purpose of wearing the costumes at all is for stealth... why bother with distinctive costumes? wouldn't they just wear all black?

i'm not contesting Gabrielle's work, he's amazing... people should check out his website... it's just the idea of it puzzles me.

OKAY, this is a point where one must think before they post. A bit of an over reaction don't you think tylerscad2003...
It's fine that you are upset, but keep it in perspective. There is NO reason at all to threaten anyone with bodily harm for any reason, joking or not.
Simply pointing out the images was not original and asking Nice Guy to clarify would be more appropriate...

THESE ARE NOT MINE. THEY ARE ALEX ROSS'. I DID NOT DRAW THESE.

I LOVE these designs!! (see my avatar!!)

I always loved the simplicity of the designs, a nice clean uniform, easy for every artist to draw!!

Did you guys ever see the pic of cyclops in costume wearing a trenchcoat with the hood up?? Definition of cool!!!

When everyone else was adding superfluous belts and compartments to costumes Ross went the other way!! I wish they'd run with these designs!! It would have given the X-men a cool uniform look with those individual touches to each costume.

The other redesign I always loved (LOVED I SAY!!) was the Carlos Pacheo redesigns of the FF costumes that appeared in the comics. Those truly were fantastic and I thought they were an improvement!!

Kickass, those would have been better then the costumes we see in the movies, in my opinion. :up:

I agree with some color arrangements those would have been much better than what was in the movies. I mean is it just me or do super hero costumes get the black leather treatment when they go movie?? i mean seriously! All the x-men: Black body suits. Daredevil: Red leather suit. Sure there are exceptions but where's the creativity?!?!

the dare devil movie costume looks infinitely better than the comic book costume. the x-men movie costumes look good too.

it sounds to me like onl two comic book movies got the "leather suit treatment"

Now I know this is a re-design, and Red X is part of DC (I believe) but who exactly is he. The only place I've heard of him is from the Teen Titans television show.

Dr Doom

Umm, thats Kurt Wagner. But in the Munich circus he is known as ze incredible Nightcrawler. The "Red X" is refering to the color of his costume.

The only thing I don't like about Alex Ross's designs is that they look like they're wearing shorts. If he lowered the bottom of the "X" to their upper shin or lower knee, it'd be all gravy.

hahaha. judging by these designs, i agree.

they're basic to the point of stupid. you know what i hated the most about being a kid? all the halloween costumes only had designs on the front.

you know what sucks about legos? all the people's chests only have designs on the front.

you know what sucks about alex ross' designs? i'll let you figure it out.

Ross was only trying to be simplistic so that all artists were able to draw the characters easier using the customs. I kinda like that their simple, plus it's always nice to see something new, something that is different from what has already been done.

Also, by just looking at all of them you get the sense that he was trying to give them some unity but still set all the characters apart. All of them have the same kinda of theme going on, but are different from each other.

Just a thought.

Well it's true that those two movies were the only two that got the "leather suit" dealy. (oh and batman to) But anyways on alex ross he is very simplistic. I did enjoy seeing super heros as though they were "real". or at least what they would look like if they were real. That's not to say that im not a fan of the SUPER animated artists though. My personal style is nothing like ross'. It was nice to see that Ross got away from all that super deformed characters that formed in the 80's and returned to the so called "golden age" style. Again all this is just my opinion, i'm not attacking anyone elses "ideals."

It was nice to see that Ross got away from all that super deformed characters that formed in the 80's and returned to the so called "golden age" style.exactly what i was about to say. nothing boring about simplicity. you don't need millions of added crap to make a costume cool. costumes of the 80s, 90s, and much of today, are much like gothic clothing from Hot Topic... lots of extra, useless junk added. a zipper that opens up to... nothing. a buckle that does... nothing. a strap that does... you guessed it, nothing.

but, this is just my opinion, of course.

i agree that too many suits have that useless crap such as buckles and zippers and straps, but the ross x-men designs are just boring. he really didn't do anything inovative. the suits still closely resemble their original designs except now they're completely flat with no shape to them.

Michealangelo and Da Vinci are better painters overall, the paintings are beautiful. But their proportions are a tad off. Plus, their paintings weren't exactly realistic anyway, while Ross' paintings are. Makes sense he'd have a better grasp on proportion.

But comparing Ross to these is stupid because he is a realism painter, Michaelagelo and da Vinci were not.

um ... michelangelo and da vinci were attempting to achieve an ideal that are respective to their own aims. I dont think any comparison can be made to Ross. ross copys pictures and has created a finite amount of poses that he re hashes continuously at the admiration of those that would that similarly glorify Robert Bateman

Ross makes beautiful paintings, I won't argue that. But the problem I've found with artists who use photo reference that religiously often lose that dynamic quality to the human body, even if the subject is standing still. It's a little hard to explain, I guess. Its just something I've noticed in artists who use photos to get their poses, it ends up looking too stiff and almost unnatural.
