Re: Matt's new suit

[(Anonymous)]

The more I look at it the more I appreciate tiny attention to details, like holes on the side of his cowl so he can hear. Charlie bulked up and the armor added to that. I do wish they'd slimmed it down, his lithe frame and tiny waist were the highlights of Man in the Mask, c'mon. Overall it's lovingly done but kinda... scattered. There's no central point that draws the eye, no smooth line, no cohesive whole. It distracts from his body, which is the last thing any superhero costume should do.

I hope the department listens to feedback and gives him a new design in Defenders. Steve's Commander Rogers look was proof that you can do both reallistic and fanservicey, as long as visible armory are concentrated only where it counts (i.e. shoulders, knees) and not where they interfere with body line (i.e. hip, waist, ass, thighs). Come on Marvel, I know you can do it!
