Here is an idea I've been toying with lately...a medieval Superman. I've been quite caught up lately in this whole Steampunk movement, the incorporating of turn-of-the-century design styles (Jules Verne, H.G. Wells, Victorian-era type stuff) into modern-day apparel, technology, costumes, etc....but since I'm such a fan of Renaissance-era costuming I thought it would be really neat to go back even further and conceptualize what Superman would have looked like had his father, Jor-El, made a time-error and sent his infant son to Shakespearean England instead of 1940s midwestern America. What would Sup's costume look like? What would he look like? Well, here's my take on the idea, complete with Elizabethan mustache and goatee. I'm also working on two medieval Batman costume drawings as well as a medieval Wonder Woman. What an impressive thing for a medieval Justice League to be able to show up at a Renaissance faire! I would love to make this costume someday soon but I'd have to make it for someone else to wear since my physique is more aptly suited for Henry the VIII! :-)
