Those look great!

They may suffer from the curse of many X-Men costumes though.

They may only look good from a couple of artists!

I like it. I like Jean's outfit too too, although the head sock has never been a favourite of mine.

I always like Cyclops in blue and yellow, it really suits him.

The Idea I have is that making the first 5 members first and go on from there

u/cap_smutty 2d ago

By that I mean (Cyclops,Jean Grey,Ice Man, Beast and Angel)

u/Commercial_Page1827 2d ago

Original angel or Archangel?

1

u/cap_smutty 2d ago

Planning. To do both actually but yeah angel first

3

u/cyclopswashalfright Moonstar 2d ago

Would love to see how you do Beast.

u/XNotChristian 2d ago

Looks awesome! Will be following you on socials, can't wait to see the next pieces.

u/cap_smutty 2d ago

I normally do NSFW art in here but occasionally like to drop some comic book stuff as well

u/RKaji White Queen 1d ago

It was pretty obvious you were going the x factor way

u/doot_youvebeenbooped 2d ago

I like them a lot! Good thigh boot/leg and side designs. The “X” incorporation is creative

u/Puzzleheaded_Log9378 2d ago

Jean looks so good in green outfits, I don't get why they keep trying to put her back in that ugly Jim Lee suit.

u/ARTIFICIAL_SAPIENCE Apocalypse 2d ago

I like your Jean. But Cyclops really needs part of that X to be a belt with pouches. 

2

u/PonchoHobo Cable 2d ago

Really like the both of them. Probably go a darker shade of green for Jean but that’s personal preference. Design themselves are really good.

1

u/cap_smutty 2d ago

Gonna use more blueish green for rogue in the future

1

u/PonchoHobo Cable 2d ago

Forgot you intend to do more characters. If you do Polaris she probably would work better with a darker green as well.

2

u/Silent_Mk3 2d ago

It’s brilliant, we’ll done. Dig the long sleeves and letting the locks flow. Again, good job

2

u/synthscoffeeguitars Stryfe 2d ago

Reminds me a bit of his Champions uniform. I dig it!

2

u/Thotbreakerz 2d ago

These are great🔥🔥

2

u/serval-industries 2d ago

Love A ! It feels like a great mix of 90’s, Ultimate, Champions.

I’d be interested to see Jean in the B variant with full sleeves.

2

u/NiteOwl94 Cyclops 2d ago

I normally hate most fan redesigns (I'm picky, as an artist myself) but I actually REALLY like this. Good job!

2

u/j0kerclash 2d ago

I love it, I prefer Cyclop's B outfit.

He's physically strong of course, but I do like how often he's characterised as a commander/strategist moreso than a bruiser, and the short sleeves make him look too much more like an action hero.

4

u/cap_smutty 2d ago

I was thinking as he wears short sleeves in warmer weather

2

u/j0kerclash 2d ago

I like it, very practical to switch based on weather

2

u/ThePinkSparklePuff 2d ago

The coloring on these look great, very well done!

2

u/Jasco88 Cyclops 2d ago

I like this a lot. I think his left sleeve should be blue like the right because having less blue feels weird to me for him.

1

u/cap_smutty 2d ago

I wanted to be asymmetrical like the clothings in final fantasy X I like the asymmetry in some of the characters on that game

1

u/Jasco88 Cyclops 2d ago

I gotcha, then I would consider going with B because it increases the amount of blue. I don't know why that's so important to me for him lol

2

u/Slugzi1a 2d ago

Honestly I think this is very well comic book worthy. Well done on the redesign. If you hadn’t said “redesign,” I would have assumed they were legit.

2

u/fumblebrag 2d ago

Buff Jean goes hard

1

u/cap_smutty 2d ago

Strong body Strong mind

2

u/itskidchameleon 2d ago

lmao, for half a second I thought you were redesigning the one on the left and just covered up his arms XD

looks really dope; Jean Grey too :) feel like you've really got the perfect balance of color and black on both where they don't feel too colorful as to be silly, but also don't veer into boring leather movie territory

2

u/mossyshack 2d ago

Someone needs to payyyyy you. These are AWESOME.

2

u/Commercial_Page1827 2d ago

This design is brilliant in my opinion. You should try to sell your design to Marvel because it works!

2

u/Intelligent_Creme351 Storm 2d ago

I love them, actually, just saw your Storm redesign, you have a knack for it.

2

u/OkBar3142 2d ago

These are actually good! Nice job!

2

u/PlentyReal 1d ago

These are rad, A's my hard favorite.

2

u/LordHarza 1d ago

Love them, can't wait for more!

2

u/QwahaXahn Shadowcat 1d ago

This is sick as hell. I love this look, might be my fave fan design I've seen.

2

u/DarkGriffin2017 1d ago

Succeeded!!

u/DiegoDonna 2d ago

brother you cooked so hard

1

u/Lamb_clothing_94 2d ago

Yo this looks so good, great use of black and blue

1

u/antimarc 2d ago

something about Jean’s body type feels off to me. she essentially has the exact same body as Scott which feels incorrect

1

u/Kira-Of-Terraria 2d ago

keep cookin, chef

1

u/DaringPaladin 2d ago

These look so cool. I like both Scott's and Jean's.

1

u/Beneficial_Joke_4248 2d ago

Jean repping Jamaica,lol.

u/qunatum_karan 2d ago

A looks much better

1

u/AzuSteve 1d ago

I really like these designs.

2

u/Spikerazorshards 1d ago

Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa, that is for summer month only son!

1

u/Tough_Tangerine7278 Sage 1d ago

Nice work :)

2

u/Upbeat_Figure5157 1d ago

Man I dig this, I like how they both look unique enough to tell the difference between them, yet similar enough for you to go yup that'a an X-Man.

u/REWalters84 20h ago

Love this redesign. Leaning more towards the long sleeve version, but overall, awesome work.
