elhonez Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 (edited) To whom it may concern: Is it too late to shift gears on Angel's S31 deco? When Angel originally wore his blue/white costume, beginning in the Neal Adams era, his boots were also blue. Please see below: Cheers, elH Edited July 22, 2009 by elhonez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Maybe you should contact DST through the Art Asylum Q&A blog. They might be able to address it there better than here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not a bad idea, thanks! As for here, let's discuss it -- anyone else prefer to see the version I linked above? I figure we already have a blue/white body with the white boots, from Wave 19.

elhonez Posted August 3, 2009 Author Share Posted August 3, 2009 Does anyone else agree about this proposed change? I think it's much more comic accurate... anyone else want to weigh in? I see the image got "nuked," here's a link: http://uncannyxmen.net/db/spotlight/showqu...=100&page=9 DST seems to using the half-mask and dark blue of #4 with the boots of #10. They already released #10 as a variant to Archangel, btw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirymate Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 I'm 99% sure that the dark blue, #4 costume appeared with white boots on occasion. Seems like it even had the white boots when Magneto took it back to attack to the Avengers. (but this is going from groggy, too tired to research it right this minute memory) It also could be one of those cases where it appeared in a Handbook and nowhere else. Small price to pay for multiple Multiple Men. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The GrumbleGrumbles Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I don't know, I think it's too late to do anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but if one of those erred instances happened to be the reference pic that the designers were handed, then there you go. It's one of those thing. I pity DST when it comes time to design someone like the Living Laser, who's costume details have rarely stayed the same appearance to appearance, heck even within a single issue. Now if you want to complain, I could point out that the upcoming Kree is not so much an army builder as a officer corps, as they will all hold Captains' rank, but that's a rant for another day.
