project rooftop
Project Rooftop is an initiative by artist Dean Trippe - "where cartoonists and illustrators bring their costume design skills to task in tribute to the superheroes and villains we’ve grown up with" [via WarrenEllis] - sorta like an upgraded/modern/fashion-iconic-versions of their costumes and look (*work it baby*) and the submissions so far look pretty spiffy ...
< (left-to-right): Dean Trippe's The Spectre / Stuart Immonen's The Black Widow / Bannister's Iron Man.
lurving both Spectre and Black Widow ... and ima thinking Bannister's Iron Man would make a pretty funky-toy, innit? verily Iron-Giant-ish - but with a meaner-disposition, by way of manga-mechas (IMHO) ... really can't wait to see the (full) range of illos and designs! *heh*
