Assassin’s Creed Modern Armor (Batman Edition) by Enzo Volante.

I love Assassin’s Creed, and always been a fan of Batman. Given the amount of similarities in some of the ways the stories played out, I liked the concept of mixing the two together and Enzo managed to create a wonderful result out of it. I’m so glad he managed to bring something like this to life and his work definitely deserves credit and praise. If I could recommend anyone for Assassin’s Creed based clothing, Enzo is your man.

The Redcoat.

Here’s the womens version of the Redcoat design I posted yesterday. The two designs are based on the same principles, except that this one has a more feminine shape. The mens version will not have the pleats, but will have similar lines, albeit more masculine.

Playing around with some ideas for the Volante Assassin line. Not sure how I feel about it just yet, although I think I like Option C best, or possibly Option D.

I guess the whole reason for this is that I feel like whoever buys an assassin jacket from Volante Design becomes a part of the Volante Assassin brotherhood. I don’t know if that means I am the maestro of this brotherhood, or just it’s exclusive tailor. Possible implications aside, if you buy a Volante Assassin jacket, welcome to the brotherhood.

If this turns out to be a thing people like, I may put it on a tshirt and offer it as a perk on our indiegogo fundraising campaign.

We are quickly nearing our 15k goal, but that’s just the beginning, the more money we raise, the more benefit there will be for you as a Volante customer. So help out if you can, pass the word around. Keep us going!

Anyone has any thoughts? They’d have to be changed more so that I don’t get into copyright problems, but I’m trying to get a basic idea.

EDIT: I added a submission link to volanteinspiration, feel free to submit ideas over there and I will gladly take a look.

Assassin Jacket.

This is the evolved form of the black/yellow beaked jacket from a few weeks ago. The design has been adjusted to increase range of motion so that it is more suitable for parkour and stunting. It also now has zipper pockets, so that you don’t lose your things while jumping from rooftop to rooftop.

This is the third and final Volante jacket to be used as a costume is Assassin’s Creed: Artefact 2

Shown in the Practical Assassin color scheme: grey main, red secondary.

Women’s Modern Assassin Armor.

This is the denim Modern Assassin Armor, women’s style, in black/red. This particular version is intended for use as costuming in Assassin’s Creed: Artefact 2 as well, for the 2nd of the 3 main characters.

Since the characters will be active in martial arts and acrobatic stunts, we designed special gussets for increased range of motion in the arms.

Special Edition Kenway Vest.

This is planned to be used as the main character’s costume for Assassin’s Creed: Artefact 2, which was plugged in an earlier post.

They are still trying to raise funds for the project, so please consider helping out. The project is really growing, Cas Anvar, the voice of Altaïr ibn La-Ahad in AC:Revelations has even joined the project. There are also several new trailers for the project on the indiegogo page, including this one:

Check out the site and rewards for contributing, every little bit helps.

EDIT: Color scheme shown would be the Practical Assassin colors: off-white main, grey secondary, red accent..

So, we hit 5k followers over the weekend, which is pretty amazing. I wasn’t expecting it, so I didn’t have a special post planned, unfortunately.

But then my sister sent me an email. She had finally gotten Cosplayfly to send her a picture of the actual Kenway jacket they are making and selling on ebay using my photography as marketing material. So here they are, with my original photos, without background exclusion or touchups.

I leave the comparison up to you, I think the disparity in quality of material and craftsmanship is fairly clear, but I would like to draw attention to a few points in particular.

Please note:

- In the top picture, the seams in the white fabric on the tails of Cosplayfly’s piece are clearly visible as being more white. This is a sign of a thin fabric which can be seen through.

- The difference of design in the shape of the blue waistband. This isn’t a question of quality, because it is a matter of opinion what the shape of the waistband should be, but the difference makes it clear that these cosplay sites are not using the official pattern, and therefore are using my photos not only illegally but also as false advertising.

- The hood.

Thanks for reading. Thank you all for your support, we love you all.

Pass it on.

-Enzo

EDIT: Changed images to clarify which is Volante-made and which is not.

Assassin Beaked Jacket: Daniel Cross color scheme.

I would like to introduce this new design. It is an upgraded version of the Beaked pullover/zipper hoodie seen here: http://blog.volantedesign.us/post/18382002708

It will be available in two versions, un-lined and lined. At this point it doen’t have a concrete price point, but expect around ~$125-$150.

The jacket is designed with a higher range of motion than that of the Modern Armor, but has the sturdiness of denim that the sweatshirts don’t quite provide. There will be an option to order the jacket with ‘gauntlet cuffs’ as pictured here, or the standard cuffs of the Modern Armor. In future incarnations of the jacket, I will probably change the pockets to zippered pockets, so that the jacket can be worn for high-activity sports like parkour.

I have had tons of requests to see what it looks like with an ‘actual person’ wearing the Kenway jacket. Now you can see why I photoshop them. I don’t have a photo studio, so this is my driveway, and I don’t want to always be posting pictures of myself.

But here you go, an un-shooped photo of me in the Kenway jacket, which is also to show what it looks like with the hood down, but still attached.

Enjoy.

EDIT: I hate watermarks.
