Description
I have never been too happy with the Black Panther costume so i decided to try my hands at redesigning it. These are just coloured sketches but i think they look quite good.
I basically redesigned his headpiece, added a few adornments like the gold neck rings and ankle bracelets and loincloth. i might darken up the grey undergarment to give it a stronger association to an actual panther.
The sleeveless costume was inspired by The Ultimate Avengers 2 animated movie.
I kept the grey lined sleeves and legs as a tribute to the original costume but it also links back to ancient Benin's body markings.
The helmet/mask has a different feel about it when compared to other comic book masks. The Black Panther never needed to hide his face so i designed it with that in mind but I still cannot decide on the ears. I am getting attached to the up-pointing ears because it's Egyptian-ish look which works because the panther god of Wakada is the cat god of Ancient Egypt. The ancient Benin neck-ring I turned into a retractable face-guard, when raised, tends to remind me of Scorpion from MK but it might just be the angle of the drawing and colour choice, I'll tweak it and see how it turns out.

this is really, REALLY great... have you ever considered taking the gold belt and neckwear and making them black, but outlining them in gold? I think it would give a more stealthy look while still being a bit ornamental/royal.
