Justice League - Vixen Redesign

Published:

Description

When I asked you all to pick your top five or top ten favourite DC Comics characters that you'd like to see me redesign as part of my revamp of the DCU, the biggest and most pleasant surprise was that Vixen landed in the top tier of the selections. She was one of the more popular characters amongst you all, receiving just as more votes than Cyborg and fan-favourite Black Bat. TristanDavis, ChazH101, Leumasy, justinator119 and TylerMusselman all included her in their lists, so this redesign is for them.

Once a popular supermodel hailing from Nigeria, Mari McCabe traded in the catwalk for the boardroom when she became the editor-in-chief for a prominent fashion magazine in France. It was around this time that Mari inherited a mystical totem from her grandfather, one which enables her to channel the abilities and traits of any animal on Earth. With this new gift, she has taken to fighting injustice as the heroine known as Vixen, with a special focus on diminishing drug and sex trafficking in Africa and Europe. She has since become a valued member of the Justice League, taking part in their International division.

Like most heroes who have one iconic look, it was a challenge to take on Vixen for a redesign. I decided to give her a two-piece suit that references her namesake in its colour scheme. Her hairstyle further refers to this, with it being like a tail. The fun thing with Mari is that you can vamp her up while also showing how strong she is, due to her fashion background and since her abilities make her fairly impervious to harm. I was really happy to add her to my growing cast of characters though, since I think she came out really well.

As always, I love hearing from you guys so feel free to drop a comment below letting me know what you think of the art and of Vixen herself. Of course, if you'd like to see more redesigns head on over to my gallery.

Enjoy! :)

nice, i think the chain-belt thing around her waist is a nice touch. Also agree with you on the colors front
