Black Cat Results - Part VI

New entries! First up, a SHotM newcomer! Welcome!
Kiddy
"I tried to go with a very simple design of Felicia, like her current costume, but still give her a bit of different look. I didn't want any sort of head gear to make her look like a cat (like Catwoman), it would be too similar. Instead I  styled her hair as it is. I based her mask on Spidey's."

Next is Lee Chen Fang, who came this close to nabbing last month's contest:
Lee Chen Fang
"The basic concept of my Black Cat derives from French maid cosplay costume. I want to make Felicia more girly compared to her current costume design. However I didn't entirely want to make Felicia overly feminine and 'sugary' to the point of being soft. Therefore I downplay the the French Maid costume and merging the idea with Felicia's original black spandex costume. The fusion makes fun-loving, thrill-seeking Felicia rather girly and cute, yet naughty and dangerous."

Finally, a completely ineligible entry from the Superhero of the Month showrunner!
Alex Getts
"Yes, occasionally I'd like to submit some work here too, just for fun. With my redesign, I wanted to eliminate the 'fur' entirely from the costume. I always liked the black/white contrast, though, so I wanted to incorporate that as much as I could. I liked the idea of thigh-high boots for that reason, since it included more white. The gloves are inspired by the Dick Grayson Batman and Damian Wayne Robin. I love those gloves. The black leather bodysuit stays. One of my favorite elements are the cat earrings."

Give your thoughts in the comments below, and stay tuned for more Black Cats as the deadline approaches! Be sure to check out past Black Cat Results - Parts I, II, III, IV, and V, our Official Contest Announcement, and the Sponsor Spotlight on Dan's Comics!

  4. Kiddy: Love the simplicity and vibrate color of the design. No doubt simple but the execution is top notch. Like the swimsuit, long glove and legging combination. Another winning design for me. Nice!

    Alex Getts: I suppose all girls like Hello Kitty. haha I think even when you are the owner of the site, you should take part for the fun of it.

    Héctor Barros: You are just been modest. I think this round of contest, all bets are off! I haven't the slightest clue who will win... Just too many good designs.

  5. Héctor - Yeah, I'd just updated and decided to check the inbox when that one came in. It was funny to me since I'd just updated, but I was happy to update again.

    In any case, I have no idea how this one's going to turn out. There's been such a show of talent, it's going to be hard to narrow this one down.

    Lee Chen Fang: I think the thing that got me with the Hello Kitty clip was not only how subtle it was, but how, especially with the style, how effectively appropriate it was. I think it's humorous, but it doesn't detract from the redesign in any way. It works in the best way!

    Something else I found funny in this post is that all three Felicia's are decked out in thigh-highs. There's been a couple of thigh-high entries so far (see Kevin Prieto and Ernest Quek's designs), but I found it funny that the three here are all wearing white thigh-highs.

  6. Tight high legging seems to be in fashion this time round. I can't help but to notice many similarities in Kitty's entry and mine... haha
