Here's the first from a while back. (Hey, Dan! Note the date when you slip
these into the Gallery!)

I feel the same way about this costume as Logan!

Great face -- he looks very 'real'. I also like the way you have captured the shape of the teeth on the costume -- very easy when drawing this sort of thing to fail to capture the solidity of the items and instead they come across as 2-D. But here they have volume and 'sit-up' on the costume, especially on the left shoulder.

I've told before the story of how Dave handed me a sketch of the Fang outfit, saying "Here's Wolverine's new costume. It's a bear to draw!"

Those teeth were the number one reason I got rid of the thing immediately. Dave drew it for a few panels in one issue. No way was I going to be stuck with it for page after page after page after page after page after page after page after page after page after page after page after page after page after page after page after page after page after page after page after page!!!

Did the customer specify which costume to use for each piece?

Very nice!

It's like entering another world where Hugh Jackman isn't Wolverine.

I've often wondered if that was an unused Timber Wolf costume design that
he resurrected.

Wow!  Great!  Love the face and the tugging at the collar.  Wolverine is your character, JB.

Congrats, Atilla! That's a nice looking Wolverine, though I'm not a fan of the
costume he's wearing either. (X23 shouldn't exist, but Alan Davis did an
excellent job job of drawing her in those threads.)

Looks like it itches.  I recommend a nice fabric softener Logan.

Compared to the stuff he´s wearing nowadays, the Fang costume rocks.
