I had the extreme pleasure of getting one of Leslee's Man of Steel suits yesterday. I have all the individual armor pieces as well as the full suit, cape, etc... I'm doing some travelling currently so I'm not available to do much more this week. But by Sunday, I plan to put most of this suit together and I'll be posting up my review... close-ups, etc. If anyone has any pic requests or questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
As stated earlier, I received the shipment of all the individual pieces yesterday and had to immediately try on the blue suit. The blue suit is actually sewn over a (subtle) silver dyesub suit created by my good friend and collaborator, Brulafu Disguises. (www.facebook.com/BrulafuDisguises). He created the subtle muscle shading on the silver suit to mimic the muscle suit used for the film suits.
Later last night, after getting the kids to bed, I tried on a few more pieces.. I apologize for the lighting in this room, it really cranks up the blue color. The fabric isnt this vibrant. It's more accurate in the suit pic above. On the left side of the photos, is the suit without use of a camera flash. And on the right is when a flash is in use:
Here are a couple of more:
Folks, the quality of this suit and armor pieces are stellar. As someone who actually owned an Eldonatty suit...or whatever you want to call that 'project', Masked Rider's suit is off the charts great... you will not be disappointed. I will do my best to archive the steps we use to put this suit together so you all can keep track.
Feel free to comment on anything you see here. The suit (the blue oversuit) does need to be tightened up at the abs, behind the needs, and just under the calves to get a better form fitting...so we're addresing those issues at the moment. In the meantime, enjoy, and if you had any reservations about ordering this suit, DONT!
