The new 52 superman armour

[Jimgito]

Hey

Dies anyone know if anyone is making the new superman armour costume?
I have an idea of how to make one but its finding the resources and how to make them.
Or if anyone has made one themselves and have any tips of how they did it,that would be appreciated

I saw a picture of a guy at a convention who made a Nu52 Superman costume. It looked like a shiney blue spandex with the red trim elements sewn into it. The armor is pretty form fitting. So you can get away with something like that and "draw" in the details with something. Perhaps screen print in some of those armor seams. I tried to search for the picture I saw, so I could share it, but I can't seem to find it. It looked pretty good from what I can remember. I'm guessing it was some kind of track or racing uniform that was customized into a Superman costume.

Hmm form fitting might nt be good for me ATM lol
I was thinking of a blue overall, and either stitching in the details or something.
Then figuring out the symbol, cape ... Belt would be easy and then finding boots :/

That's actually amazing ... I think looks a lot like a costume then armour but yeah I'd be happy with that but a bit baggier lol and then add the detail

That's a better 1 ... I would maybe use black to highlight the detail ... Self conscious about my idea now haha

This is the one I was thinking of. It's a pretty good version of the costume. Must have taken him some time to get the details in the suit.
