Outfit Redesign - Tumblr Posts
I've been thinking of redesigning Specimen 4's outfit. So far I managed to design how the outfit would look like, I had to look up images of sci-fi, hero, and military suits/attires until I came up with how her new outfit would look like in my head.
Her outfit is stealth and combat-based. It has to be light for her to move around with ease, but also durable enough to not break and tear. The outfit does have secret pockets, up to six, because pockets are Hella important.
The color-picking process was a bit difficult since I had a hard time trying to pick what shade of gray the outfit would have. I experimented with different tones of Gray, using Cold Gray VI and Payne's Gray.
Cold Gray VI, mid.
Payne's Gray, dark.
Payne's Gray, mid.
Payne's Gray, light.
So far, I like 1 and 3, though 3 could be slightly darker.

She could use both 1 and 3.
Like, She uses outfit color 1 for mountains, rocky terrains, forests, etc.
And She uses outfit color 3 for jungles, big cities, etc.
She would still keep in the shadows and be well hidden of course.

I imagine Specimen 4 would have multiple of the same outfits with different shades of colors depending on the environment of the places she goes to. Or she would have one outfit that can change color by a press of a hidden button.
Now that I think about it, she would have an outfit that could switch colors. She would have more than one pair of the same outfit in case the first one tears, breaks, etc.
The Specimens and the semi-humanoid Mutants would possess combat outfits that could change color depending on the environment they're in. The Mutants' tech is highly advanced, far more advanced than human tech, so color-changing outfits would likely exist.
Color-changing outfits aren't new, example the heroes in the Young Justice series have been seen with their outfits changing color by a press of a button if I remember correctly.
But for now, that's all folks!
Suit design
I decided to update Specimen 4's outfit from a complicated to a simpler design, so it's easier to draw.
The outfit has secret pockets, up to six.
Her outfit can change color from cold bluish gray (Polychromus Payne's gray. Left.) to regular grey (Polychromus cold gray VI. Right.) depending on her environment.
For the reason why, well, the Mutants (Specimen 4's kind) do possess advanced tech, so they would create suits that can change colors depending on the environment where the missions take place, plus be highly durable, for their combatants.
The other stuff on the top right of the images is to show her age, height, gender, and nationality.
And why is she flipping off the viewer? Well, it's because we're human, and she despises humans...so yeah.
Body design
How Specimen 4's body looks like.
I went with the pear-shaped/triangle body type.
She has multiple life-threatening scars because of her occupation but survives them like it's nothing.
I changed the spider limb segments from six to seven.
I changed the markings on her eyes since I couldn't get a consistent design for it, so I went with a simpler look by just having four tear marks on each side of her face.
And that's it.
