BvS The Superman Suit Thread - Part 2

[sf2]

Too generous to let us see the suit in video. Awesome

 

[Bruce Malone]

The suit looks so much brighter!

It's never been about the color of the actual suit but the filter they use once they film it.

We will not know what the finished suit will really look like on screen until we get the first trailer.

In my estimation color wise it probably won't look too different from in MoS.

 

[craigaat]

I prefer the piping on the BvS suit, but everything else about the MoS suit is better.

 

[sf2]

The pipeline color is blue too. More subtle.

I really love how the S looks on this suit. It's just perfect. There were times where the S looked somewhat strange on the MOS suit imho, but this one..looks absolutely perfect.


My only minor complaint is that i miss the yellow Oval that his MOS suit had.

It's ironic; I wanted thicker yellow strand (belt) lines around his waist for his next suit..which we got, but I ended up losing the oval as a result.haha

I really don't care for the different treatment on the S, as compared to the MOS suit. I think it's the thicker border and "flatter" look that causes it, but it looks like it's lost it's definition and shapeliness.

I also strongly preferred the way the musculature was treated on the original suit. I really disapprove of air-brushed muscle.

 

[NoLaNitE007]

The new tweaked suit is an improvement from the MOS suit. Both suits rock...but the lighter blue is just what the new suit needed with some added improvements around the wrists and torso area.

The new S is slightly smaller than the MOS S, but only slightly, so it is just fine by me.

The brighter gold around the S and the belt area is a nice touch also.

Cavill having shorter hair this time around was a good move as well for a more clean cut look.

It seems to me that the "chainmail" pattern in the "S" shield is a bit smaller than on the rest of the suit.

I haven't tweaked the colors, only brightness and contrast because the picture was overexposed.

The blue doesn't seem to be too different after all.

Things I like from the suit
- The S shield. I used to hate how they changed in but from this pic it looks like it's barely changed (in size). I love the detail on the S and the gold.
- The cuffs/wristbands. Looks a lot better being integrated into the suit rather than in MoS.
- The colours
- The buckle. Sure I'd like the old circle but this buckle is just fine.

Things I don't like so much.
- The side piping. It looks painted on like the muscles (I'll get on that later).
- The muscles. Again, looks painted/brushed on. I much prefer the MoS look. Did the MoS suit have painted/brushed muscles on? Or was it just a body suit?

It was brushed as well.

It is a bit brighter, but mostly more vibrant:

Honestly, both costumes are done so well as a whole. I think the muscularity (body suit and or painted) has improved as it looks more anotomically accurate. Something about the midsection of the MOS costume looked a bit odd to me but seems to have been resolved.

Based on the images above, the colors looks almost identical despite what some are aspousing based on a few set photos.

(All of this IMO of course)

EDIT: I will say I prefer MoS hair at this juncture. I like that they've shortened it for BVS but I'm
not a huge fan of the overly gelled style. This ALS photo really shows how drastic that has been done and it just seems overdone.

 

[matt47]

Now, I know this probably wont be the case but, to me it looks like the suit he's wearing is one that's made for action/harness/wire work, as you can see the MoS wire/harness suit isn't as detailed or..good looking as the final product.

Taken out of context this gif is kind of disturbing.

Wet Superman? Why?

Man I have a disgusting mind but even I don't see how that's dirty

 

[STARMAN]

The suit looks good to me without brightening the colors. We'll see how it looks onscreen.

 

[Bran The Man]

Pay attention to the left corner of the gif.

Its all about the arm movement. C'mon guys, if there's anyone who can recognise that, its nerds posting on a message board.

I love this suit now.

Oh, that... odd, I have a dirty mind, but it haven't crossed my mind at all.
Though I'm not really what one would consider to be a "nerd", so maybe that's why. t:

 

[Steyin]

It seems to me that the "chainmail" pattern in the "S" shield is a bit smaller than on the rest of the suit.

The MoS suit had 3 different chainmail sizes: one for the blue, one for the red in the emblem and one for the gold/yellow in the emblem.

Also, the armor doesn't seem to be as thick/raised and/or attached like the MoS suit, but rather seems painted on. While the overall suit design is nice and slightly better (I love the new cuffs with Kryptonian writing), the level of detailing and application is such a drop down honestly that it worries me. Perhaps this is more of a stunt suit...I hope.

We'll find out soon enough.

 

[Gu3ree]

His shoulders look bigger this time. Seems they brought the cape line and and neck line down a smidge and looks good.

I did notice the S was slightly smaller, in addition it looks very different from the MOS S. I'm wondering if this time, it won't have a reflecting shine on it.

 

[Skrilla31]

the new suit is better than the one in MOS.

plus i really like the square buckle because it makes it look more like a belt.

the lack of trunks looked weird on the MOS suit to me but on this one i don't miss them at all. it works fine.
