The Savage Sub-Mariner: Prince Namor Wishes You and Yours a Very Merry Christmas!

[Spyweb007]

The printed muscles is a great idea, I tried that trick on a Wolverine suit. I wonder how a Tarzan body suit would look with the muscles printed onto it, maybe using a necklace and some wristbands to hide the neck and sleeve ends?

Love it!

They all look amazing, but the Rhino looks very cool.

Luv the printed muscles! That is the first time I've ever seen such a thing. It really works. Very inspiring.

The muscle pattern was designed by my dear friend Paul "Daremo" Kuhr some years back. I believe we originally used it to show depth in a Silver Surfer suit, but since then I have used it for Wolverine, Namor, and a few others where I felt I needed to highlight muscle definition. Here are a few:

[mjaycox]

Looks awesome!!

Savage Sub Mariner was one of the first customs I ever did. It's cool to see another one! I like the wings under her arms

[PNGwynne]

Originally, I had aspirations to sew them into the seams of the under-arms, but then I would not be able to get the belt around the waist. I could also have sewn them on in a similar fashion to the Mego Falcon (which was the premise for the design of the wings), but I chose the tape route instead.

Thanks for asking!

Hmmm. I was thinking about Aqua-Foes and your cool Human Flying Fish--but with wings as above and attached Falcon-style. After seeing Namor, seems doable.

Awesome work.

[TrekStar]

Excellent custom, beautiful work, Namor never looked better.

[Grimjohn]

Fantastic job sir! This version of Subby is on my to-do list!

[noelani72]

neat realization - the wings really set him apart.

I'm not familiar w/ Savage Sub Mariner, (just Prince Namor from the 60s cartoons), but you made him look just like the comics. Good job!

That's a wonderful Sub Mariner custom, Austin. I particularly loved his costume (although I know a lot of people rank it right up there with Iron Man's faceplate that had the nose. I know they do now and again bring that costume out of mothballs and I would bet, dollars to donuts, that if they ever do put Namor on the big screen, you would likely see a version of this outfit since the studios would likely deem his green swim trunks as looking too cartoony...
