Why do I like that Superman suit so much?

Super Kal · 02-09-2007, 07:57 PM

because... it's something you've never seen before?...

I like to know why you like it to? No offense but I'd definitely take the SR over that anyday! Smallville reeks of *****tieness!

Super Kal · 02-10-2007, 06:21 PM

don't bash Smallville in here...

Try this suit:

I know different actor but:

And this is what i feel about the current suit:

Super Kal · 02-10-2007, 07:26 PM

thought I'd post this...

TheBat812 · 02-11-2007, 04:50 AM

Here's what I'd like to see. No, or minimal (like Spiderman), design changes (loved it), but these are the ideal colors I'd like to see:

Super Kal · 02-11-2007, 09:53 AM

eh, outside is still too dark for my tastes... fooling with the blue doesn't make the red an brighter.

Because it looks like something a normal-seeming male might select for himself if trying to look heroic (ie. good & powerful) yet unusual (ie. has actual superpowers) and put-together (ie. not sloppy) but NOT trying to draw attention to his crotch???

Good colors; good proportions; only one visible \S/ on the front; nice neckline; nice color/feel/drape for cape; briefs don't look quite as tiny.

it makes for darker but more regal colors, which i like. Of course, the terrible lighting of that shot is one reason that doesnt truly come across. It does more in this one:

okay then... I can give that a try...

Super Kal · 02-11-2007, 03:25 PM

any better, TheBat812?

TheBat812 · 02-11-2007, 04:48 PM

That red is definitely better, but this is more like it. With this lighting it looks dull though, with cinematic lighting, it would look more like the manip of the promo:

I think the colors like this in Singer's "feel" would have been much better. Now just get rid of the plastic shield and ad a bigger printed/screened/airbrushed shield, open the neck and cape attachment, change the hair and it would have worked well for the "feel" of that movie.

oopes, I meant to post that last suit posted by TheBat

Super Kal · 02-12-2007, 07:06 PM

you do know how dark that shade of blue would look at night, right?

I think it's original and I've always liked Wilde's art. Just like I always enjoy Kak's art and Shamik's art.

Smallville reeking of anything is your opinion, and in my opinion, it's a good show. Just another version of a character I know and love.

Super Kal · 02-13-2007, 01:17 AM

yea, it worked out just fine for me.

Super Kal · 02-13-2007, 11:49 AM

that's just an opinion... and judging from the poll, you're in the minority...

TheBat812 · 02-13-2007, 05:32 PM

my opinion matters just as much as any others on here: not at all, when it comes to what will actually happen. What matters first and foremost is how the suit looks in daylight. That's how i like the colors, very regal and heroic, not ridiculously bright or muted. Now, I'm in film school, and i know how to light so that it looks like night, but can still keep the same colors at night (look at STM, the colors look just as bright at night as in the day, and same is true for SR, it's basically the same at night as it is in the day, and I'm not talking about up in the atmosphere near the sun like in the plane scene in which there is much more like than regular).
IE. This is the exact same colors as in teh day, for the most part. IMO it looks great, not ridiculously bright but easily discernable as red, blue and yellow.

It would work, and though it might not be everybody's favorite take, it's mine.

my colors would look like this:

DAY:

NIGHT:

wtf? I am entitled to my opinion whether you agree or don't! Smallville started strong, but then took a bat***** snowdive from there. Lois Lane and Jimmy Olsen in Smallville, please!! Again it sucks badly!
