Cypher Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 Found this out on the wild plains of the Internet. Didn't know which forum this belonged in, but Fan Works seemed appropriate. Did a search and it seems this hasn't been posted, best I can determine. Costumer's name is Sean of SMP Designs. He came up with a Macross flight suit from the TV series, but put an original design twist on it based on real flight suits. He shares his How It Was Made on his website. http://goo.gl/pL6nj I attached some photos from his gallery that are really great. Enjoy!
frothymug Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 I hated the flightsuit design from SDFM, but this guy's adaptation actually looks pretty good!
coronadlux Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 Nice. Looks a little funny in the lower torso area. Makes his legs look short.
mechaninac Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 Neat, but for some reason that flight suit screams Star Wars, to me, than it does Macross...
Zinjo Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 Pretty cool, but I think the composited image of the flight bay is what really makes it stand out...
chillyche Posted September 26, 2012 Posted September 26, 2012 I think it looks sort of Star Warsish because it's a bit baggy, and has the additional harness straps for the chute. Also because it's suddenly been realized in live action, versus stylized animation. The almost skin-tight SDFM flight suit just doesn't really lend itself well to real-world aesthetics, unless one goes the Prometheus veined pressure suit route (which is based on actual emerging, though not deployed technology).
