This is great! Nice design. Superboy was one of my favorite shows growing up.

I gotta say, I really love your Superman models here. I can't wait to see Cain, Routh, and Cavill's (I assume it'll be both MOS and BvS/JL since you did multiples for Superboy '88/89-92) to be done by you.

I gotta ask: if you do, how will you approach Tom Welling? Because he never actually wore the suit (unless you count the CGI Superman Returns suit with minor differences). The closest was both the black trenchcoat from Season 9, and the red jacket from Season 10. But because he didn't wear the suit itself, will he be added?

P.S. Have you considered doing the Superman Lives concept/close to final suits? Maybe the Superman: Flyby and Justice League Mortal concept suits as well?

Hi friend, thanks, I just copy and do digital draw, is not a big deal,
but thanks again. I can't find a good picture of the suit (the little
view) of Tom Welling, but yes, my plans are will do two versions:
the black trenchcoat and the red jacket with jeans XD, I don't
know if I'll do the real final suit.

And I don't find the Superman Lives concept, from where? Smallville?
if do show me maybe I'll do.

PS: I'm sorry for my bad english XD

Okay cool, can't wait to see all of the Supermen.

I understood what you were saying, no worries.

Superman Lives was the canceled Superman film from the late '90s, that was suppose to be directed by Tim Burton and star Nicolas Cage as Superman. With the exception of various concept art, no one knew what the suits actually were until recently. The Superman Lives suits, worn by Cage himself, were revealed in The Death of Superman Lives documentary, which is a very good documentary. Out of the three suits they showed, the third one is the best. While I can see what they were going for, and we have to keep in mind that they were early tests: the first one would've looked better if more “completed” (and I think that was the one he was going to wear at the end of the film and in sequels if Lives was made), while the second one looks like an action figure, and I think “classic '90s superhero” was the direction of that one.

You should really see the documentary, it is very good and we see what Superman Lives was going to be about, and why it never got made.

Anyway, here is the suit that I said was the best out of the three. Cage was going to wear this, so you know. Don't worry about the other suits.

Thanks for the info, I knew something, but a little, I'll search this documentary, and I saw some pictures of Welling's suit, the emblem is the same of Superman Returns (2007).

According to what was shown, Welling's "suit" was the Superman Returns suit. But the colors were a bit brighter, and the yellow "S" was on a more cloth-like cape:

SR vs SV

There does exists a Season 11 comic where the costume was redesigned as this:

Thanks, I think I'll do the comic version, but de "S" with the same texture from Routh, or what do you think?

I decide it, I'll do only two suits: Superman Returns style (but with little changes) and the comic version.
