i like them all Cth... i wonder if there isn't a way to make the F look like his lighting bolt?
 
No idea..

I found a blank template online and I've been using it for make costumes via MS Paint and GIMP.

In other words, I drew the details if that's what you were asking :D
 
Here's a crappy MS Paint Aquaman redesign complete with story..

ORIGIN - WALL OF TEXT

Arthur Curry, was rescued at sea, the only survivor of an underwater sea lab. He was born to a pair of scientists whose goal was to test the limits of human endurance for underwater settlement. His father Alan, under pressure for results, began to self-test the formula he was developing in secret. Alan and his assistant Anna began an affair after months of close proximity to one another, which resulted in a surprise pregnancy. They continued to press for results and were determined to give birth in the lab, to see how young Arthur's body would develop.

Soon after Arthur was born, the final pieces slid into place and the pair achieved the scientific breakthrough they sought. Unfortunately, tragedy struck when a nearby whaling vessel's pursuit of a blue whale caused the large mammal to lash out at their underwater station. Alan placed Anna and Arthur into the sole escape pod and jettisoned them to safety as the water rushed into the station.

Due to their rapid ascent, Anna and Arthur had developed the bends, which threatened their lives. The whaling vessel spotted them and attempted to rescue them. The captain was unable to save Anna, but Arthur's unique nature helped him to survive the bends. For the first few years of his life, he had to live in a special bubble.

The captain adopted Arthur as his own, realizing what he had caused. He abandoned whaling and raised Arthur as a deep sea navigator. At 16, he learned the truth about his real parents and swore to use the insurance settlement to find his father's final resting place.

Arthur loved the sea, it was the only place he could feel alone and at ease. He was a moody teenager and preferred the company of dolphins to kids his own age. He'd get cruel nicknames like Water Boy, Sea Man, and Aqua Dork.

Finally, at 18, he went into the trench, finding that he could push further than anyone before him had gone. Upon reaching the wreckage, he was attacked by sharks. A pack of dolphins came to his rescue as he took refuge in the wreckage. Immediately upon opening the laboratory, he was bathed in a mixture of chemicals left behind from the original experiments. Even though his suit was failing and he was surrounded by darkness, he started to notice the outlines of the battle taking place outside of the wreckage. Looking out a nearby porthole, he could see events clearly. The largest dolphin was hurt and being savagely attacked by the remaining shark. Arthur shouted out for the shark to stop, and oddly enough, it did. The dolphin swam slowly over towards the porthole and Arthur clearly hears the dolphin say "Thank you" before it dies.

Terrified, Arthur sits there in the dark contemplating his next move.

Silver Swan-Manga-ed up a bit.

It's for kind of an idea I've been mulling about. I am not quite sure if this is the magic one, the cyborg one, or the other cyborg one. But she's now more of a fencer, even though my fencing sword looks aweful.

Tried to join this board because I thought some of the designs were bloody brilliant and I wanted to comment and they wouldn't let me?!?!?!? Said no one with a free email like yahoo hotmail or gmail could join what the hell is that what email do they want?
 
Sorry, no idea.. I'll see if I can find some alternatives..

In the meantime, this week we're redesigning Wonder Woman.

http://606studios.com/bendisboard/showthread.php?t=189830

Here's mine:

A little background..

I went into this without any planning. In the back of my mind, I had intentions like DGHK did. At one point, she had a belly shirt and low cut bikini -- which clashed with the long sleeves to theoretically protect her arms. I tried covering that area up, rather than go for a belt and moved on. I thought more about protective clothing and remembered it didn't bother the original creator, so why tinker with that aspect more?

Oh, and I went with a shorter haired WW just because. Red hair for the same reason.

I wanted an ambassador that would have guys mesmerized, but still non-girly enough to fit into a militaristic, all woman society.

Also, I toyed with the idea of giving her gauntlets but pulled it back to what they are now.

Like the Flash, I went for a W motif thingy.

Anyways, here ya go..

ww1.JPG


Originally, I was designing something Egyptian.. something Cleopatra would wear (or Promethea :D) with shoulder pads.. I brought the idea back for this version, deciding this would be the formal wear. The cape is an invisibility cloak, since she can't be in the airplane all the time. A decent offensive/defensive item.

haha no, they're seamlines. Imagine a blue onesie (as opposed to red speedos/undies) over blue tights and that's the look I'm kinda going for. I want it to look like the suit is five pieces sewn together, the body, 2 arms and 2 legs.

My submission to Project Rooftop for Black Canary.
Tried to give her a real superhero costume instead of her trademark outfit.
