First time writing an article here, so please, don't expect too much.
As some of you may know or will have seen from some of my comments on other articles here at CBM, I am one of the people that is very strongly behind & believe in Wolverine having a comic accurate costume used or portrayed on the big screen. Then you have the nay sayers who are against it who will swear blind in their opinion that it just can't be done or will look too stupid / silly for the big screen and then of course the discussion of Spandex being used is always brought up.
I however have always been a believer that with the right creative mind, vision & tailor that an accurate looking Wolverine costume CAN be done & I've always used the example that if Bat In The Sun can do cool looking Wolverine costumes & cowls on a relatively small budget then why can't a big studio like Fox finally get a proper looking Wolverine costume off the ground?
Well, I stumbled across this little gem over at movieweb that I thought would have surely had one of the regular CBM posters here would have done an article by now & in my opinion, I believe this is absolutely amazing!
Moulded & created by Legacy Effects digital modelor & sculptor Adam Ross, who has worked on films such as Iron Man 3, Pacific Rim, Robocop & Oblivion.
This was made for the recent The Wolverine movie this past Summer but was never used in the final cut.
Hopefully it may be brought back out for DOFP or perhaps another Wolverine appearance as it seems such a waste to not use something so perfectly crafted.
It just goes to show that Mr. Ross is the kind of person I was thinking of when mentioning somebody with a creative mind because everything in that box is a beauty!
So, do the usual and sound off below whether you think this costume would or wouldn't work on the big screen!
I think you already know which camp I'm in!

Avid fan & reader of comic books & superheroes & love superhero movies & TV Shows.
I'm more Marvel than D.C. but that doesn't mean I'm going to bash one or the other & I will give fair criticism of both whether that be about the comics or the movies, both have their pros & cons & neither is better than the other in my opinion & both offer characters or stories that I like & can get into. I will however quite often bash Bryan Singer, Shane Black, Fox, Sony & Warner Brothers for stupid ideas & decisions & the exact same goes for Marvel Studios except they don't make AS many mistakes in my opinion & I'll always give valid reasons or points for the bashing & not just do it for the sake of it. You've been warned so expect some debates with me in threads & topics.
Also love my console gaming (Sorry, just can't get into or find enjoyment in playing games on a PC).
