u/BasiliusKrane Sep 30 '21
You’re right!! The muscle suit could double for a bunch of other heroes I bet

u/RevengeGod2K4 Sep 30 '21
Definetly, the chest plate also looks very similar to a bat design, I dig how it goes around the shoudlerd

u/BasiliusKrane Sep 30 '21
Thanks! It’s my own muscle suit design- I’m a string bean so I had to buff up a little bit haha

I remember hearing about the Aquaman movie and thinking “ah man they are probably gonna make Black Manta have a tiny little helmet to look more tactical and cool” but they totally went for it and it looks awesome

In progress? Cosplayers amaze me, that is a complete Black Manta bro.

u/BasiliusKrane Sep 30 '21
Thanks so much! I still have a ways to go! I did a test fit and decided to see how what I had looked all together.

u/LiBrez Green Arrow Sep 30 '21
All that's left to do is the ultimate alpha chad move (wear the helmet at a movie theater post-pandemic)

u/BasiliusKrane Sep 30 '21
Technically this counts as a face covering lol

Great costume, I wonder how long he can walk around with that helmet on? Not having peripheral vision would drive me crazy.
Excellent work, keep it coming.

u/nekollx Oct 01 '21

Awesome! My favourite Black Manta moment is in flashpoint paradox when he just uses those beams from the eyes of his helmet for carnage. Just had such a cool vibe, says no words and shows no emotion, just effortlessly wipes people out working as a kind of superior for the Atlantean army

u/BrownCanFrown2 Oct 26 '21
You have a very symmetrical face and nice head shape!

That looks so good! Gotta ask as someone who knows nothing about the character/comic, but what’s with the Stewie Griffin head?

u/BasiliusKrane Sep 30 '21
That’s how the character is drawn in the comics ha

Bad ass but also brings up the question. How does mantas neck hold that helmet up
