New game, new main! Wanted to celebrate my choice of character to play competitively with in Marvel Rivals: Mantis, by designing a skin/costume for her, a ''legacy'' skin that would gave a homage to her ever first debut design - Redesigning it slightly to fit ''today's graphics.
Researching all about her origin, I found out her origin was quite terrible, unlikable by any Marvel comics fan and in today's time, VERY ''outdated'' to put it lightly.
Due to this, she went through many many revisions, ...however we basically have to thank MCU for giving us a cutesy, likable version of Mantis everybody knows and adores... a version so good that is used in any entertainment media (including Marvel Rivals now) ever since.
That's why I kept her alien look despite this fan-costume was fully inspired by her first design... Originally a human, a prost*tute (maybe that's why the outfit is so skimpy)... Reserving that ''fully faithful adaptation to her origin'' for an alternative version of this idea for a skin.
And I'm very happy with this! ;)
