Make Me a Superhero: Challenge #4

[pryde15]

http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k303/cpsm1092/Superhero.png


First and foremost, welcome to Make Me a Superhero! This will be a weekly challenge of sorts. In which all posters are welcomed to post a design for the challenge. There really aren’t all that many rules for this thread.

- The picture of your design should be cropped to 550x800.
- Criticisms are welcomed, but in a polite and civil way. We don’t want to put anyone down, but help to improve their work.
- On every other Wednesday I will post the challenge. If you are interested in participating in the challenge of question, post the picture (via photobucket, imageshack, etc.) and a brief description of the characters back story, powers, and how your character ties into the challenge. You have until 11:59 p.m (CST) on Sunday to post your entry.
- That following Monday, I will post a voting thread, in which everyone is free to vote for which character they liked the most.
- The winner of that challenge get’s to choose the next challenge.
- After a competitor has entered their entry, please pm me with your idea for the next challenge, before the voting period ends.
- Once again this is just a friendly design contest. So no eliminations. Furthermore, there is no commitment involved with Make Me a Superhero. So if you feel like playing one week and not the next, which is perfectly fine.

And to end it off… have fun!

Isn't No-Girl, Martha Johannson?!!??!

[escapegoat]

Awesome challenge Josef. I actually suggested the same idea to MattB during Project CBRunway earlier this year. I'll be making time this weekend to get something in.

Pryde15 - can any character be chosen once for this round, or can more than one person work on te same character?

I would imagine just one person can work on a character, but it's Josef's challenge, so we'll just have to wait to see what he says.

[Come To Deathstrike]

LOL, No-Girl is the invisible character that Ernst talks about who may or may not be real.
And no!
One character per designer!
Ooh, I'm strict.

LOL EPIC COMPUTER EFF UP.

[Kid Icarus]

[pryde15]

Ok I added No-Girl. But if someone enters a blank page I'm not taking it. lol.


I updated the first post to show who Kid Icarus chose, and the One designer per character.

[lockerogue]

I'll take Wallflower.

[Kid Icarus]

martha is no-girl...

[Hi-Fi]

[pryde15]

STOP CHANGING.


and that's what I thought as well.

[Come To Deathstrike]

No-girl is not martha.
Ernst said that she exists on another Light spectrum, so we cannot see her.
And wouldn't start calss until Mister Xorn called out her name on the register.

And GIMME GIMME ANGEL SALVADORE.

Oh, and Renaming the characters is cool, if y'wanna do that.

[escapegoat]

I want Loa.

I almost was gonna take her, but I couldn't think of anything to design for her. I woulda liked to have taken Trance, but NOOOOOOOO..... Mr event co-ordinator Pryde15 snatched her up as soon as he could.....


.....I'm not bitter....


j/k :smile:

[Come To Deathstrike]

If Aforementioned X-Student were to become a fully fledged X-man, like Storm.
What would they wear?
The days of School uniform are OVER M'boy.

P.S. I dunno what you intend to do with Dust, lol.

LOL THANKS!

I feel like I'm Simple Jack and you guys are catering to my instabilities and for that, I greatly appreciate you all. :redface:

BUT it would be much more beneficial to my condition if someone choice my girl W.D. :wink::wink::wink:

I already said I will be doing multiple characters, and I have thought about Wind Dancer's costume before.

I might try. Oh and I just finished scanning, and I will be posting them in the New X-Men Discussion Thread soon.

You're so sexy. :)

OMFG if you do Wind Dancer it'll be just like if Chris Bachalo did Wind Dancer and then I think I would die.

Also, she needs to GTFO with the multisyllabic codenames. Its very tiring to type when you mention them constantly.

IZE NOES. I am just calling her Sofia from now on.


Oh and I am all of them stylized so it should be fun. :smile:

[AnkaleRa]

I'm definitely joining... but I'm not sure who I'm going to pick just yet.

EDIT: Nevermind, I want Pixie. I didn't realize she hadn't been taken.

[AnkaleRa]

Question:

About what age should they be? Late teens/early twentys? Or is it more open to when we feel they graduated? Anywhere from 14 to 20?

[Come To Deathstrike]

Question:

I'd say like 18-21?
That's when I have always ASSUMED people graduated from Xavier's.
But I could be as wrong as Kevin Grievoux's interpretation of Chamber.
LOLOMGBITCHY.

[Affinity]

ERNST, please and thank you.

[Shade101]

I have a great design sketched out, and I'm planning on tweaking it a little bit. BUT it may be too much of a stretch from Dust's traditional attire. I hope what I designed for her won't be offensive or looked at the wrong way.

Omg this is difficult...

...not to mention the color I have in mind is WAY different than the color she wears most.

[Aljira]

http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w159/psiwar/surgexx.jpg


i kept the x-men colors, but i added a few reds to make it a bit more interesting. gave her a skirt that goes over a pair of tights, made of, what Forge affectionately refers to as mutant threads...and the hair! i gave her a nice, sharp and short assymetrical cut (kinda like what selma blair was wearing on hellboy 2...only straight-er and longer...and everybody is sporting shorter hair nowadays) and a hot pink highlight, for more attitude...not that she needs it anyway, but a next generation x-men leader should not be afraid to try different hairstlyes. (e.g. HRH Storm)

[Shade101]

That's great Aljira!

OOH THAT IS TOO COOL!:cool:

but id lose the purple stripe

Just constructive criticism.

[Aljira]

That's great Aljira!


thank you Shade. now hurry up with Sooraya...i wanna see her...hehehe


OOH THAT IS TOO COOL!:cool:

but id lose the purple stripe

Just constructive criticism.

awww. you don't like it? why? i really think it's pretty. i thought, the stripe was a great contrast to her dull hair color. i saw a similar stripe on an almost similar haircut, on a local show that featured precision haircutting just earlier today...and she's japanese...and you know how crazy the japanese (and koreans) are sometimes with hairstyles. i just thought it's about time she lived up to it.

har har. mwah!

If its too slutty you could always call it Wind Dancer and that'd be that. :cool:

[AnkaleRa]

That does seem very "older Surge" to me. Definitely in her 20s. It looks good.

And here's my Pixie. I went all out on her!

http://fc08.deviantart.com/fs31/f/2008/230/5/e/Pixie___Graduation_by_jelloconcoction.jpg

So I'm putting her at either 17 or 18. She's still the same hyperactive, playful girl, but she's got a sexy side. She needs something that shows skin, but is still has that fairy touch to it. So she's got a nice, short skirt. Tons of tulle. And she's got nearly knee-high boots, with high platforms. Plus, her shirt allows for some reasonable cleavage, nothing too slutty, but still adventurous. The gloves give her that tie to a childish feel, along with her patented gold head band.

Colorwise, I went with a palette of green, black, and yellow. The green ties her not only to her original uniform, but also the fairy aspect of her character. The black and yellow are tied to her second uniform. Plus, the black ties nicely to the "Dark Pixie" idea with part of her soul missing. The entire ensemble even gives off a modern/young witch aura.

The back. The back is situated so that putting on the costume is relatively easy. Even with her wings. The black top has cut-outs in the back to cover the top of the wing connection, and the green top has cut-outs to cover the bottom of the wing connection. This way, Megan can easily get dressed without having to crunch her wings or anything.

[La Fea]

I love the cut, but I'm unsure of the stripe. I like it, but the blue is already so in-your-face.

The outfit is great and I really like how the gauntlets look.

[La Fea]

That does seem very "older Surge" to me. Definitely in her 20s. It looks good.

And here's my Pixie. I went all out and her!

Omg...if I were a woman, you'd be my baby's daddy. That costume is perfect for her. Great job!

[Shade101]

Lol well she's not slutty, but there's a "bit" of cleavage. And I know how conservative Sooraya is, so I don't know if that was a good choice. But oh well, it looks HOT!

She mainly wears black. So I think neutral tones would be the colors to go with. Maybe with alittle bright color so it pops?

But neutral overall.

Ankale....I haveta say that is one of your best designs ever! Excellent thought on the color scheme. And the design elements combined the dark Pixie and fun Pixie very well. I love it. I had thought about picking her this round, but I'm glad I didn't cause you rocked her out.

Ok well the color is definitely a neutral color. But I'll give you a hint. It's the COMPLETE opposite of black. :eek:

Good things come to those who wait....


....therefore, my waiting to see it will make your design even more good when you reveal it to all. Not that it isn't good right now...it'll just be made more good when the time comes.

My power to do such is awesome within itself......I better stop before I explode from awesomeness

It will be an awesome explosion though, if it happens....

[escapegoat]

I just finally read Scott Pilgrim a couple o' weeks ago....does it show?

Don't worry. I already have a college fund started. Will $400,000 be enough for our precious angel?

Ankale....I haveta say that is one of your best designs ever! Excellent thought on the color scheme. And the design elements combined the dark Pixie and fun Pixie very well. I love it. I had thought about picking her this round, but I'm glad I didn't cause you rocked her out.

Thanks, escapegoat! That means a lot coming from you! :biggrin: And I'm sure you would've done just as well in your own way! :wink: Just as you'll do with the Cuckoos!

AnkaleRa, that's one of the best Pixies I've ever seen. Right there with Young's. I absolutely LOVE the design.

Thanks Hi-Fi! I'm anxious to see your Loa as well! She's never really had much of a costume before!

I plan on doing multiple characters.

Sah-WEET! That's good. Because I started an Anole on my own. :tongue:

[Meathawg]

Can I change mine from Rockslide to Beak? Started doodling rockslide, no costume really struck me so started dabblin with Beak and im happy so far :D

[AnkaleRa]

I was so excited with my Anole costume, that I pumped out the coloring and everything! Fortunately, no had picked him.

http://fc07.deviantart.com/fs31/f/2008/230/f/e/Anole___Graduation_by_jelloconcoction.jpg

Let's see... I envisioned Anole becoming an X-Man earlier than most of the students, somewhere around the age of 16 or 17. By this time he's showed he can hold his own and lead time after time.

So, for one, he needs a costume that doesn't constrict is massive right arm. Hence, the right side is sleeveless. And, to make wall/ceiling crawling easier, no boots, shoes, or other foot coverings.

While designing, I looked at his original uniform. From there, I took some of the basic elements (layout, color scheme) and adapted from there. This time, however, I gave him a high neck collar, a long left sleeve, calf long pants, and a belt.

For the color scheme, I stole the red, black, and gray from his original. However, I didn't feel that was good enough. So, I added the purple piping to add another color that partially complements his green skin and looks good with the black and red.

[AnkaleRa]

Hmmm... why do I always screw up the thread somehow...

[Meathawg]

Wooo hooo Beak is mine! Mwahahah...

thank god as Im almost done with it hehe...

Firstly, HAIRCUT.
The top is designed to look almost thorax-like, as she is . . .a bug.
The top comes underneath the wings, as I've never understood how Archangel /Icarus /Angel put these clothes on with these gigantic wings.
Logic prevails!

I couldn't take away the signiature hoops, but I gave her a bunch of braclets to go with it awell, aswell as a Wedding ring.
Barnell & Angel 4eva.

The stiletto boots are because more heroes need stilettos.
And the little gold bit at the end is a metal spike at the end of the boot.
This girl's from the ghetto, she's not going out under-eqipped

I thought a simple 2-piece 2-colour costume would be best, as she's already got these ridiulous wings to really set her apart.

And angel was around in the time where Leather was in, so needless to say, that's what it's made of.

Finally, I didn't want too much flesh on show.
She's sexy, but she's a mother first.
She doesn't want her kids seeing her in a ninja thong.

This Wallflower is around 18-19 years old. As you can see her arm has been healed thanks to Josh. And she's become a master at her powers. I just couldn't take away Laurie's jacket that had to stay. So I changed the color scheme to orange and white. Which is the color scheme for the overall costume also. Laurie is always deemed as the cute girl next door. So to sex her up a bit I exposed her midriff. I also continued the trend of the freckles.

So this is my DJ. I always pictured him as being thinner, or not as overtly muscular or whatever so I went with a more stream-lined look, suc as trying to incorporate straight lines in his jacket. Also I tried to stay true to his original colors, but updated it a bit. Also, because of his unique powers his belt is outfitted with ipod holders, each one filled with a specific music genre so that he can quickly tap into a different power set.

And then I thought he needed some shades, so yeah.

I like it, and I actually thought about the wing thing for Pixie, too. I have the back all planned out, and I was originally going to add it... but for some reason didn't. I think I'll go back and put that in.

Dust

While I was designing this costume I had black as the color of her costume already in mind. But as I began finishing the costume, I noticed that the black trim around the costume would stand out a lot better with a lighter color. And the color white seemed to be the best option. The contrast of the black and white make for an eye catching design I think.

I also wanted to add a bit of "sensuality" to the costume, but not make it overy sexy to the point that she looks whorish instead of lady like and sophisticated. Which is why I designed a lower neckline with a nice symmetrical design to it in order to accentuate her bosom just a little bit. But I was very careful as to not show too much, because then of course that would go against her culture. I added the thick black lines on her abdomen in order to create the illusion of a longer torso.

I wanted to keep the abaya design, so I improvised on it and created my own style of abaya. Except this time it comes in three pieces. A big flowy sleeved top that connects to a veil that masks her face, a dress-like middle piece with a plunging triangular mid section, and a pair of tights/pants underneath.

Anyways, I was pretty satisfied with this design, but was afraid that the color of the costume would be too much of a risk. But it turned out great I think. :biggrin:

And ditto on the "we as designers are better at making costumes". Because I agree. I actually don't know why comic companies don't employ people like us for character designs and costumes. We're oh so good at it.

So apparently. Coloring a picture predominantly charcoal is NOT fun. So I gave up... about 5 hours ago.

Well anyways. Trance was voted best dressed at the mansion, and has been shown to always be stylin', for comic book standards atleast. Another thing I noticed about Trance. She always manages to catch your eye whilst on panel, without having to shown skin. Which leads me to believe she has a more conservative fashion sense, which I tried to convey in this picture.

I imagine Hope as a budding fashion designer, running her own line: Peace, Love, Hope. Using her inheritance, of course. So with her X-Men uniform, I wanted to make it something she could wear walking down the Fifth Avenue. Or fighting alongside the X-Men. This uniform would be suitable for either enviroment, and functional.

For the colors? Here is what I was thinking.

Dress- Charcoal
Tights- Red
Belt- White
Trimming on Dress- Red
Ballet Flats- Charcoal


That is just what I was thinking. When I have more time I plan to do another sketch of Trance in this costume, I loved this challenge. But I hate coloring. :frown:

Bleh
the whole debacle left me with an unfinished piece
but that's ok!
I kinda made it in time!

so anyways...
This is Indra
I kept his colors similar to his alpha squadron uniform
since that is the only uniform he will probably ever know
But I based its design off of one of Northstar's designs since he was
the X-man that most influenced his life.
I kept his shoes casual so he wouldnt feel all dressy
and I tried to keep the costume bianchi-ish
just slightly less so

[podmark]

Well never managed to get a finished Prodigy done. Was away for most of the last few days. I did do a bunch of sketches, but forgot my sketch pad at my brothers house :frown: I'll post them when I get a chance so you can get an idea.

Good Job!

I don't mind if people are a few minutes late anways. I would still count it.

[escapegoat]

I unfortunately had no time to ink the piece as I had hoped to. I totally scrapped what I had designed up from last night, and restarted three ours ago. I had also planned to make variations within the costume for all three of the Cuckoo sisters, but also ran outta time there too :frown:

Detail-wise, I wanted their outfit to reflect some similiarities to something Emma Frost would wear as a late teen. Even though the Cuckoos are not big fans of their genetic parent, I think they would still display some similiar tastes and fashion senses from Emma, probably on a subconcious level which they would try to deny.

I almost originally trimmed the outfit with black instead of the gray-ish purple, but then realized I may have subconsciously channeled that idea after seeing Shade101's design, so I figured I better alter that.... dammit Shade101! :tongue:

I also may of subconsiously channeled the heels from Ankale's Pixie design, but I believe Emma has worn a similiar style of heels at one time or another, so I'll ignore that Pixie thought and pretend I didn't think that....:tongue:
