Modeling orthographic of an Iron Man redesign. The most difficult thing was trying to come up with an Iron Man design that was differnet. It's pretty near impossible, since Iron Man's been around for so long, there's already been so many different permutations. After a bunch of weird and off the wall versions, I finally decided to come back to a more conventional design. I knew I needed to keep his face and power source on his chest, as they are iconic elements.

There was a scene in the movie that bothered me enough to remove me from my suspension of disbelief, and that was when Tony escapes the cave and crash lands head first from maybe a mile up, unhurt. So I decided to make an Iron Man with a reinforced neck area. There are also wing stabilizers on his wrists (not in ortho) that I plan on making a close up of. During non-flight, the top portion of his armor shifts downward and his neck unlocks, allowing for freedom of head movement (present in plan sketches).

Thanks for stopping by!

edit: I changed the layout. It's difficult presenting orthographics well.

I like his upper body a lot, it has very well defined shapes and shows in the silhoette. I think his legs might be lacking some of that definition though. If you were just looking at the silhoette of his legs you wouldnt even know he was wearing armor. I think you can push some of those cuts in it and armor plates a bit more to match the style of his upper body better. I can only see one of his forearms but I think those could use a small bit of plating too for where he would be hiding his weapons. Such as that missle he fired off in the movie at the tank. I know yours is a different design of course, but I'm assuming he would still have some kind of mechanism under/on that forearm to use a weapon he is concealing. So yeah good design overall and the chest/head is lookin pretty sweet for sure. Good work
