This is my submission for the AFL champ Rocket by :icongenekelly:. Yeah...It's a bit rushed. His head is HUGE, his limbs out of proportion, and the background corny, but it's the thought that counts...right? Right?

Anyway, I wanted to experiment with Rocket's costume design and color scheme a bit (this came off the heels of John Vaugner's Angel Crusher makeover). If Rocket were ever to make his identity public he would no longer need a mask. (Sorry about the hair color. Had no idea what it was so I had to guess. I used the colors from Bounce's wig). I kept the up arrow and stylized rocket, but made it into a T-shirt and gave Rocket a blue and white jacket. His pants have blue markings on the knees, mirroring his knee pads and his shoes have the same blue soles. Yes, his overall costume is similar to John's costume style. Oh, and I thought the R&B (Rocket and Bounce) on the left breast was a nice touch.

AFL brainchild of :iconangelcrusher:

hehe, cool stuff man. Its what Rocket would wear if he revealed his secret identity and made 'rocket' into a brand name and image. Its a cool jacket that would fly off the shelves for sure. ^_^

Heh, thanks. I had a hard time thinking about what rocket's public outfit would look like. This is what I eventually came up with. I tried to have similarities with his old outfit.

Rocket's a blonde [link] so what you did here looks good. :) I really like the outfit. It's a nice blend of super and civilian. Good stuff!

Whew! Got the hair right. And I'm glad you like the outfit. It's a blend of his Rocket uniform with a bit of John Vaugner's outfit. I seem to have this thing for drawing jackets...
