BvS The Superman Suit Thread - Part 2

I still prefer to MOS shield. The thickness of the "S" puts me off -- it's not quite as elegant. But, as with anything, I will get used to it.
 
I really like the new suit, the square buckle is growing on me!

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.
Nice... :)

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.
Disagree in the last part. this hairstyle is more supermanish... Almost identical to this one. That screams superman.

You have to see the official superman pic and you'll see more or less how the hairstyle is gonna look. But remember the hairstyle on the set pics and the first official pic with the final product.

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.
You sure?

BTW nice find on the different patterns on those three parts on the suit.
 
hmm, maybe this has been addressed, but it seems like amy adams is wearing an outfit she wore in mos in the ice blanket challenge... is this another sign of a flashback to the end of mos events? then again, mr. cavil is in his 'new' costume so perhaps lois just loves those vests...

She was wearing a flight suit at the end of MOS, though. Maybe it's a flashback that goes further back...? Kind of weird to give her the same wardrobe again.
 
I think she just has the same sort of wardrobe which I love. Makes sense that she would wear the same thing for a second time.
 
i don't think they are going to address the new suit if anything they will most likely use it in the flash backs (if thats true) to establish that its been his suit all along

Let's be real they won't have to.

I'm a big fan and even I only barely notice any real differences between the suits which probably means for 99% of the GA they probably won't even know there was a suit change.

Sort of like how I found out that every spider-man suit in the raimi trilogy was different technically but in the end they all pretty much looked the same.

This isn't a Begins suit to TDK transition.

oh, right. been a while since i've seen the movie. guess lois has stale fashion taste :D

That outfit was the best that Lois has worn in MOS.
two things...
Maybe it's just for them to recognize she's as lois
or she'll wearing that again. Thing that I'd be grateful. :D
 
I figured out the only thing that bugs me about the new suit... its that the grey outlines on the MOS are now printed on, instead of glued on...its the only part that looks like a downgrade.
 
Nevermind. Edited.

They look a lot more like solid pieces in the officially released photo. Perhaps that is not the "hero" costume and is one for stunts.
 
I sort of dislike the random line through the middle section of the S. I get that it's "not supposed to be an S" in the first place, but even so, there's a line going through the logo that I love.
 
You sure?

That is why I am assuming/hoping its a stunt suit or something; the detailing looks thicker, applied rather than painted on and much better in the high res Supes photo than in the video.

:up:

Noticed it thanks to a thread dissecting the suit on the RPF from a bunch of high res close ups. Getting a replica suit made and shipped to me in a couple of weeks.

Thats what I've been saying, if you look at the last page I posted a comparison of the stunt suit vs the original 'hero' suit.

I think the pattern is no (not so much) different in the final suit. but we'll see.

Wow. when you have it.. if you don't mind, a few pics would be great! :D

Yeah I feel the same way. I think the perfect suit for me would be the MoS shield on the BvS suit (where my manip-ers at!) But it's just an aesthetic criticism. If this movie turns out as great as I'm hoping it will, I'll completely forget about the minor stuff like this.
 
Never ending demands fr fans...

Interesting the 'buckle' is part of a TDK logo-esque wing shape. Whereas in that promo pic it's seemingly 'floating' and unconnected to the rest of the belt. I like this better.

I don't see what you mean. Are you talking about the wrinkles around the buckle?

It' seems to be in the centre of another shape with like wings coming off each side. Vaguely similar to the TDK logo (not on purpose of course).

Perhaps there will be some reason given for the 'line', but as it is it seems an unnecessary and overly frilly ornamentation.
 
I've made a comparison between MoS and BvS, and under those pics I've put together couple Mos pics from various locations to show how different those colors can be, and how that drives me crazy!! :woot: That suit has no definitive color!
