Some costume ideas I had for Roxanne in @setepenre-set’s Temptress AU
The series is here!
And this is really FANTASTIC; I will reblog with more specific praise in a moment but I LOVE THIS.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH
OH GOD I LOVE THIS
Okay, so this is F A N T A S T I C
I love all of her expressions and body language in these! Her sassy sneer and hip pop in the first one; and her smug smirk and graceful walk in the second one; and the way she’s smirking even more wickedly and waving in the third–like she’s walking up to someone, or in the middle of escaping! And her glare and her hand on her hip in the last one–the Temptress is ready for battle!
You’ve made her so wonderfully expressive; she has such personality in all of these, as well as looking absolutely gorgeous in all of them!
And her outfits!! AAaaaahhh!!! Yes! Roxanne definitely does have multiple Temptress outfits; there’s a reference to her picking out a specific outfit to go see Megamind in the Lair. So I’m really excited that you drew her in multiple outfits! And I love all of them! You note in your tags that the first two are based off of her dress in the opening of the movie, and I can definitely see the inspiration, there!
The first one is wonderfully practical, as well as sexy; very streamlined and full-coverage. I imagine she wears that for her more active plots, the ones that involve a lot of hand-to-hand fighting.
The second one is also practical, although it shows a bit more skin–she probably gets this outfit when she and Megamind reach the point in their nemesis relationship where she realizes he’s not going to seriously injure her on purpose. And she wears it during plots that require a little less physical activity. (also! hear-shaped earrings oh my god I love the heart shaped earrings)
And the third outfit is for plots where she’s using her powers more than doing anything physical, when it’s summer and very hot out, and for when she’s feeling like being extra flirtatious with Megamind. I love that the red on the bodice of this one is heart shaped! And that she has heart shaped earrings on again, but dangly ones this time–yes, she definitely wears this when she’s less worried about physical fights and about Megamind hurting her on purpose. I quite like, too, the way that this outfit seems to be made of a different material than the other two. It’s shinier, fancier–like silk, maybe, or vinyl.
I also love that she has different boots–shorter, practical ones, and taller, more visually stunning ones. I really love that all of these outfits look like parts of them could be changed out and matched with parts from different outfits–she could wear the tall boots with the first outfit, the short boots with the second and third outfit; the capes look removable on all of these (very practical; superhero or supervillain, capes look impressive, but you want to be able to remove them if needed!)
It really fits Roxanne’s character that her costumes would be versatile for re-wearing in slightly different styles–the super-costume version of her buying the same dress in multiple colors!
And these are really wonderfully thought-out super-costumes; I am so impressed with the design of all of them!
Thank you so much for this; I really love it a lot!!
