Description For the current Project: Rooftop re-design contest.

I pretty much took a 180 turn from my previous attempt, although I did keep the color scheme and the mask's basic design as I liked those elements.

I realized I wanted to try something a little more "believable", while still keeping him recognizable as Wolverine and integrating some of his common costume elements into the design. This was probably sub-consciously inspired by the Quitely "biker X-Men" outfits from Morrison's New X-Men run more than anything.

I feel a lot better about this design than the other one I did. Hopefully the judges will feel the same...

Cool man. I dig the ensemble. I think it looks like a young wolvie design, something that could be ultimate wolverine. Maybe too much brown is making me think that.

Thanks, man! Yeah, I kinda did a 180 on my first idea. Was going for more of an Ultimate/movie design. Of course, I started looking for other entries after I sent this in, and found some other people had ideas very similar to mine... Still hoping for maybe another mention, though.

Even better! Just thought, I know there's nothing against it in the official rules, but is it okay to post your design before the contest entries are posted?

Thanks, Jamie! I like this one a lot better as well.

Yeah, there doesn't seem to be a problem with showing off your entries elsewhere beforehand. I didn't post my Batman one until after I sent it in - I wish I'd waited, as I got some constructive crits on that one that I could've used....

Hmm... Personally, I think it's quite a worthy contender. Love the jacket especially. But you may have went a bit overboard with the X's on his wrists and ankles, looks almost... Jamaican. But that's just nitpicking on my part. XD

Heh. I hadn't even thought of that. Atleast I didn't add any green to the costume.

Thanks, man! Placing in the last contest kinda raised my hopes a little, but really I'd be super-happy to even just get a mention again. I'm sure there'll be a lot of entries, and I've seen some good ones already on deviantArt...
