The "cloak" is what's being worn in the Seifer and Tylor costumes on my site. I agree there really ought to be a real cape.

SueDenim, just so you know, I have pictures up of your designs for Wonder Woman (modeled by one of the cantina dancers), Robin (I used Sneakers so I could wear it), and Green Lantern (I added gloves since about 70+ of the GL pictures I saw had white gloves).




You're right - I somehow forgot about the White gloves. Probably Long Uniform Gloves would be best here. I think I was able to get the boots a bit greener too, but not sure about that. I just got Tailoring II, so I need to try this outfit again with the bright green that comes with it!

Looks good, though - the sneakers work well for Robin.

Trying to figure out some others.. Haven't tried putting it together yet, but the Golden Age Flash looks pretty doable - some sort of long sleeved shirt in red, Striped Slacks in Blue with yellow stripe, red Standard Boots, and a light grey-colored Swoop Helm to suggest his "Mercury" helmet.

Interesting. Interesting and amusing, although I much rather prefer the look of Star Wars... but well, this game could use a bit of color and more "loud" characters so why the heck not.

Well, that was the best green I could manage on the boots, but if you find a way to get better I'd be glad to hear about it! As for the gloves, I'm only at 4-2-2-3, and I'm currently debating whether to go for Field (for dusters to selland eventually cart belts to grind, and long uniform gloves) or Formal (I've had a request for a Selphie outfit, which needs the slip dress, plus the better skirts in that line, which I've also had requests for).


Back to the original topic , I have some ideas for Superman, I'll try to play around with them when I get on tonight and I'll post here if they work.

I hadn't thought of Superman, good idea. So far I've done:


Wolverine (Black tactical skinsuit with the Wolverine hairstyle you get with Master Hairstylist and long sideburns)


Elvis (I couldn't afford the suit but someone said a white flightsuit is the closest to Rhinestone you can get with adn Elvis like hairstyle)


And my latest attempt is Spiderman. I have a red tactical skinsuit with blue stripes. I'm looking for some kind of helmet that would work but the only thing that seems close is the Ubese helmet and I've only seen it in blue.


Oh, and if anyone is interested in looking like the characters in the face and body as well as costume, let me know. I've only really tried the Elvis look on myself and it was pretty close.

I just got Field Wear IV today, which gives a couple of nice superhero-potential items in Infiltrator Suit and Leggings.

Figured out another decent Green Lantern look: Black Infiltrator Suit with a Green Pullover on top, White Uniform Boots, and white gloves. Unfortunately, it turns out that the infiltrator suit goes *over* Long Uniform Gloves, or they'd be perfect....

Oh yeah, forgot another discovery: the Pullover doesn't layer well or something with the Striped Pendant. But for these purposes, that's a good thing - basically, you see the gem sticking out, but not the necklace part, so the gem becomes the closest facsimile we're going to get for a superhero insignia....

Pity blue doesnt come out too well on ubese, but you can try it anyway:


Blue ubese helmet.


Yellow gloves/boots


Blue bodysuit, possibly tactical with yellow markings.

I've been specializin gin superhero wear for along time, on Chilastra! Only had one taker tho, But she is a twi-lek, in my favorite WW costume that as soon as hit bustier lvl months ago, I started wearing the WW costume alot! Looks rather nice on a deep purple rodian . . .lol! BUT seeing the outfit on a twilek, I also came up with a gold bone crest, to serve as WW's tiara. Made me wish I was a twi-lek then lol. Also, I find yellow boots, the 2nd box, looks a tich more goldy, and goes better with the outfit than pink boots, even tho WW's boots are usually red. Sometimes wear long uniform gloves to sub for the bracelets, OR chitin forearm pieces work nicely too. We don't have a golden lasso option, but sometimes I make necklaces with yellow ropey parts to wear around the neck, or name my droid Lasso to follow along after me . . .ok so I love superheroes! Lol.
