He’s Our Hero.

I am extremely pleased with how this design came out, and might just start developing a prototype immediately so that I can have it in time for Earth Day.

The green on the inside of the collar and lining is designed to keep the earth close to you while also referencing Planet’s green mullet.

EDIT: April Fools. Captain Planet is probably not going to happen any time soon.

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 Demon Killer.

New trench coat design based on Dante from Devil May Cry. I’ve always wanted to design a Dante coat, as I’ve been playing the series since the first game came out. With the newest installment coming out soon, I thought the time was right.

Simple, straightforward, but with pinch of ostentatious thrown in and a Volante twist. The hood will be sewn in to the collar so that when the hood is raised, the collar goes with it, referencing the old Dante tall collar look. [read: DMC2]

It will also be water resistant, with wide-based shoulder epaulettes to help give extra protection from the elements to the tops of your shoulders.

I will be posting detailed sketches about how I see the rest of the jacket being constructed at some point.

I don’t usually like to post sketches that are this rough, because the final design often ends up looking very different. Nonetheless, here are some ideas I’ve been throwing around for Nightwing, Phoenix, and Thor.

Enjoy!

Spider-Man Rework.

Decided to go back into my Webhead design, even though the other one was well loved. This one feels better to me because it is significantly different, structurally, from any of my other designs, and I think that instead of being a normal hoodie with a spider on the chest, this will wear more like a thing Spider-man might don on an off day… or something.

Also, I infused a little of the costume concepts from the new movie, just for fun.

Enjoy,

Your friendly neighborhood tailor.

Storm.

She’s always been one of the more badass characters in my mind. Detail sketches to come.

Sweet JP!

I watched Redline for the first time last month. And then I watched it again. It was so good. I assume most of my followers have not seen this movie, but I loved it so much, I had to do a redesign. That red line goes around the front of the leg, and down along the inside of the calf to the bottom hem.

Seriously, go watch the trailer for Redline (2007), and then find yourself a copy of the movie, and sit back (you might also want to strap in).

EDIT: I just want to say, drawing pompadours is fucking fun.

Speed Racer Jacket.

Designed for forward mobility with the arms. I’ve driven a total of about 8 hours in this jacket, and it’s super comfortable. Doesn’t have pockets on the outside, to preserve that streamlined look, but instead has an inside breast pocket on either side. I’m going to offer it with or without the quilting on the blue sections of fabric, so there is a deluxe version, and an economy version.

Like all of my other jackets, this one is available in any color scheme you ask for, assuming I can find the fabric.

Economy - $250

Deluxe - $300

Modern Assassin Armor

This is the one I made for Hank. I tried to color correct the photo to closely match the actual colors. It’s intended to be the darker colors of Ezio from Revelations, which had a more burgundy red, and blueish/grey. I also included an image of the internal of the jacket, showing the full lining, with a panel of stretch cotton in the back so that the lining never gets in the way of your mobility.

When you order one, be sure to challenge my original vision with your own input on color choice.

Lined - $350 USD

Unlined - $240 USD

In Progress: Mohawk Storm.

I’m still working on some of the exact details, and cleaning up the sketch, but I think it’s pretty cool already.

I’ve got plans to make some things that are a little more wearable in the Summer, because, it’s too hot to wear most of my jackets through the summer. So this’ll have a vest, and sleeveless shirt.

Ancestors: Kenway

Detail shots. It’ll have a removable hood, and functional turnback facings and tails.

Ancestors: Kenway

Here’s a sketch of the first of a set of 3 modern reinterpretations of the ancestors of Desmond Miles, of the Assassin’s Creed series. It’s a reimagining of the American Revolution era garb of Connor. I tried to design it closely after the character design, while shortening the tails and implementing zippers instead of buttons, to make it slightly more appropriate for street wear.

Detail sketches are on their way. Pricing TBD.

Speed Racer.

Some detail shots of the jacket and shirt.

This’ll be my costume at Anime Boston, come say hi.

Color Choices for Beaked Hoodie.

Had a few requests for a visualization of some of the other color options. When you order one, you will be able to specify a main color, alt color, and thread color, chosen from white, black, red, and grey.

In the third image, there’s an version that’s mostly white, with red inside the hood and as the pocket lining; I’m calling that the Desmond color scheme, because it is closest to Desmond’s hoodie from the games.

Men’s and Women’s sizes - 90 USD

With Zipper - 105 USD
