    The aspects we want to change will be:
    • Colour of suit (it's a one-piece suit)
    • Colour of gloves
    • Colour of underwear (UK definition of pants)
    • Colour of Cape
    • Colour of Mask
    There will be some hats added to the design, but we'll communicate with the contest winner once the main graphic has been completed as additional work.

    Your contest entries must include 1 variations of the items and colours above. e.g. Yellow suit, red cape, blue mask, green gloves, black underwear. You can include other variations if you wish.

    Thank you for the submission. Client feedback:


    The right leg needs to be brought in so he is standing straight
    The belt needs to be removed and the pants need a white waistband and Y-front details
    A plain white oval logo needs to be added to the chest

    The Head needs to be bigger and face needs to look MUCH more masculine; bigger jaw line and chin, frowning, bigger hair and thicker side burns, some facial stubble.


    Currently the eye mask looks like sun glasses - they need to be altered to look like a superhero mask

    3) The mask needs to be rounded - please see pic below.

    4) Face - The face needs to be more a lot more handsome with better styled hair. It also needs to be angled with the chin up slighltly. (See 2 examples Below)

    Client Feedback:
    Thanks for a great design!
    1) CAPE - The cape outlines need to be thinner and the pants need y-front details and shape (see above in picture)
    2) BOOTS - Please - remove the boots.
    3) FACE - we need the mask to be more rounded and also I like the general style of the face but it needs to have a bit more detail/character (please see mask pics and face pics)

    Thank you very much!

    Client feedback:


    - Cape: I like the fact the cape is blowing in the wind but its currently about 45 degress from vertical - can we reduce that to about 20 degrees (so not so far to the left).
    - Pants: Can we have the y front detail to match the pictures provided above.
    - Face: The face looks a little robotic - can we give it a little more character - please see superhero face examples above.
    - Mask: Can the mask be altered to be more like the shape of the mask in the pic provided (above, where it's flatter and more rounded.)-
    - The cape must not be stripey, it can have folds, but it needs to appear that it's just 1 colour of fabric.

    More client feedback!:

    - Getting really close now! Just a few minor revisions for this design.
    - Really like the face and shape of the mask - but could the mask be a bit smaller (probably about 80% of the size it is now)
    - There seems to be a tiny bit of the suit colour overlapping the cape around the neck? Could this be removed please
    - Could you remove the stripped effect of the cape? just make it obvious that they are folds, rather than stripes.

    Thanks

    Great!

    There has been some confusion - we want to keep the cape around the neck please - but there was a bit of the suit colour that had overlapped on to it that we didnt want - please put the cape back on the neck but without the overlap from the suit colour.

    the outside of mask is the correct size but could could the 2 holes be bigger so that we can see his eyes properly - This helps show the character's personality more.

    Thank you!
