When The CW Television Network aired The Flash-Arrow crossover event you might have noticed that Oliver Queen's superhero costume had a few upgrades. Conceptual artist Andy Poon (via Film Sketchr) updated his website with concept art of those upgrades. "The strap for the quiver is more like a bandolier now that holds special trick arrow tips," Andy explained. "There are flechette holders added to his left arm, lower back and his thighs. 2 seams were added at the lower front of jacket which makes it feel abit more like the lines of the abs which we all know Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) has, but also for the new jacket belt to loop through that holds 2 side pouches."

Andy also created a fun, "blooper version" of Oliver's costume that included a boxing glove arrow tip, like the one Oliver has used in the comic books. Andy never dreamed that it would actually be used, but producers utilized earlier this year in the  "Guilty" episode.

That clip from Arrow with the boxing glove arrow was pretty cool, never saw it before.

These guys should upgrade to guns. You can carry a lot more bullets than arrows.

i never realized how strapped he was. he has like 6 different pouches with arrows. actually hes even more equipped than that cuz he also has that sash as well as some other pouches on his belt. and i like the idea of the boxing glove just hanging out like that. he could easily put it on the tip of an arrow and fire. perhaps it should hang in the back or something tho so it wont get in the way when moving around

this also makes me realize how much cooler his suit would look if he had some gauntlets or something. it would look better if his sleeves were tucked into something as opposed to them overlapping the gloves

I loved the little nod to the boxing glove arrow when Oliver put down Wildcat. Very nice and subtle touch. It is little things like that which make me believe there are some true comic geeks working on that show.

This show is good, but it needs better fight choreography or a better director

Too bad the actual costume doesn't look like that...

i believe it does look like this now that Cisco gave him an upgrade

RedChaser - 1/16/2015, 3:52 PM
Maybe. The show is way too [frick]ing dark so you can't see the details on the costume LOL
RedChaser
RedChaser - 1/16/2015, 4:06 PM
He has the black straps for the pouches but he hasn't used them yet on the show. Again, I feel like the show could, you know, brighten itself up a little bit. I can't see shit sometimes during fight scenes LOL.

Maybe when Oliver returns he'll get a new, more badass suit, a wise-cracking personality and the hair/beard!

And I like this suit more than the one they went with, but I guess Roy doesn't have the arms for it or they explicitly abide by the "suns out, guns out" rule.

I wish they'll change the costume into the new 52 version.

And that boxing glove scene is the best from season 3. So much for the fan service. Great!

@supes123

impressive!!

I haven't enjoyed this season as much as previous seasons, but seeing how much work Colton and Katie Cassidy are putting in at the gym makes me more optimistic for the rest of the season.
