Hey all,
Ive been working on some ideas for a new Robyn costume.
Im going to show you some ideas that I liked and what the final version looks like, but I'd like to hear what you guys think...
Here are a few pictures I have gathered from the web..
And this is the final rendition that I went with. Thank you to Scribbler and to Domi666 for the artistic help!
I wanted Robin to show a little more skin. I also like how the sneakers elongate the leg. Before a few years ago, it was hard to find Robin boots that weren't too clunky looking. There are better options out there now, but I think the sneakers would be a good first look.
Anyway, let me know what you all think!
I realize we have to move the "R" badge a little lower, onto the breast area, but use your imagination for now

I have only seen one Robyn costume I'd actually care to see in a video, and it was something used for the classic "slutty ______" Halloween type of costume. This is entirely a matter of taste, but the Robyn costume has seemed to be both a terrible costume for the character, and when used for a female it seems as though she looks too much like a guy in that outfit when the female has short hair.
For me to buy a Robyn video, I would want something closer to the last example (the drawing) with a model who looks very feminine. But that's just me and one potential customer is hardly worth basing a costume on.

I agree with the open low neckline being a good option for the larger bosomed ladies to showcase their talents.
I think the red tunic needs to be a little longer or it gets obscured by the belt.
My personal preference would be elbow length or above the elbow gloves.
Key question though - what length is the cape gonna be?
Again my preference would be for a hem length ending just above the base of the ass cheeks.
Green sneakers can work but I was never a fan of those stupid pixie boots in the show.
Just my 2c.

I love the second and third pics with the green tights and leather boots.
Maybe you could use both looks? Have a traditional "rookie" Robyn in the yellow cape in some videos and a darker modern Robyn in others?

Right. The drawing is the style I am looking to go with.
I also like the red leotard idea with green tights and, sure I think we could probably do both looks. along with alternate foot wear...
I also like the idea of having elbow length gloves. That's something I had thought about earlier but neglected to put in the drawing...

Good call on the elbow-length "Opera" gloves. They always look great.
Is there any chance you could put "Granny" boots with the costume?
The Converse sneakers and Burt Ward's pixie slippers both look really asexual to me.

Of these, I like the first one the best, except there's a little too much overhang of the red top over the green shorts.
Also... one thing that a Robin character HAS to get right for me is the mask and hair. The mask and hair in that second photo are just awful.
Robin should have short black hair, maybe shoulder-length and a really sexy mask. None of these masks are really doing it for me. The best one is the drawing of the blond with the ponytail. But even that's not quite right. It needs to be sharp-pointed like Nightwing.

Typically, Robyn is played by a smaller framed female, as she is the younger, more girly sidekick to a more mature, statuesque Knight/Batwoman. So I personally don't mind if the costume isn't designed for an extremely curvaceous woman. I always think of Jade Indica- shorter, not real large up top, but a nice butt, and still very sexy. I do like the concept art, a little more skin isn't a problem! I also like the 2-piece showing the midriff with short shorts, something a little different, but still attractive and a more "girly" look. And the sneakers aren't bad, I think they're an improvement over the pixie slippers.

Haha, yeah we have to use some imagination when looking at this pics.
For example, #2, pay no attention to the hair or mask. And I agree none of the masks are "ideal" but Im leaning towards a batman 66 style mask vs. Nightwing, even though I like that mask, Im thinking about saving it for another character.
So I am guessing you are voting for style #1! And tights you mean flesh, or... ? Green?

I liked the Captive Games costume too. Although the green leather boots could have used some heels. I particularly liked how the red tunic came off to reveal the green leotard underneath. The bob haircut was pretty cute too.DrObiCaffi wrote:Butt wards costume on a girl is PERFECT!!!! Please use tights too! Pretty much the costume used in SHL's robin captive games.Just about perfect!

It's a shame SHL's later Robyn videos made her look so asexual with the boyish haircut and Converse sneakers. Maybe other people liked the changes, but I thought they completely ruined the character's look.

I've seen so many Robin costumes and so far they all miss the mark somehow, I keep waiting for someone to just come up with the perfect one.
If that last drawing is what you are leaning toward, then I would go with hotpants/shorts rather than a high-waisted bottom like that. And the hair is too long. Otherwise, I'm good.

I guess hair length is the one thing that's very difficult to get right for everyone. Unless Robyn is going to wear a decent quality wig, specifying hair of a certain length will severely limit MH's choice of models. Particularly if Robyn also needs to look right alongside whichever model is playing KnightWoman.TIEnTEEZ wrote: If that last drawing is what you are leaning toward, then I would go with hotpants/shorts rather than a high-waisted bottom like that.

Do we really want the female Robin looking like Burt Ward!? That would be kind of.....weird. I mean, as I'm looking at the spunky little female crime fighter in her revealing costume, the last thing I want to visualize is Burt Ward! No offense to the man, but when you're developing a new persona, we shouldn't be seeing Burt Ward. That's just my thought....I would find it hard to be turned on by a female who looks too much like Burt Ward, and I guess herein lies the problem when you're dealing with such a specific costume and color scheme. Too much green and red and yellow makes me think of Burt Ward. Deviate from the usual colors and it might work.

Well Im a spandex guy so I like the costumes to be clingy wherever possible. I always thought the leotard UNDER the tunic was too much fabric, regardless of the chest size of the girl. It's definitely a more faithful look, but I am looking to update it and make it a little sexy at the same time.
What's everyone's opinion on green sleeves? Keep em or get rid of them and use elbow length gloves instead?
What is your opion on keeping a tunic style top or making it a straight leotard? Again, I want this to be a nod to the BW costume, not a re-creation of it.

Best(and sexiest) Robin outfit I have ever seen:
Its the skin tight light green shorts/panties that are the key.

Even though she's recently gone to the dark green shorts,I think the lighter colors show more detail of a woman's body(camel toe,etc..)

Well, how sleeves would look with the gloves depends on the gap between the top of the gloves and the bottom of the sleeves. If there's not enough of a gap, a couple of inches of exposed arm would just look weird.MightyHypnotic wrote:What's everyone's opinion on green sleeves?

If it comes down to an either/or decision, I'll always pick long gloves.
If you're going for a straight leotard, maybe something an acrobat might wear would be appropriate?MightyHypnotic wrote:What is your opion on keeping a tunic style top or making it a straight leotard? Again, I want this to be a nod to the BW costume, not a re-creation of it.

Here's another variation. Looking at it now, I think I should've added more length to the cape, just a bit..

Are you having the cape especially made? If so, maybe it could have the bottom corners at arm-length and the center just above the buttcheeks?
You suggested something similar for KnightWoman's cape in another discussion.

How about a lower neckline or maybe a laced up one that gives a glimpse of the chest.?
Think you are right about the Cape but loving the boots and gloves.

I think the cape is the right length on this one. Although, I think a mask should be optional.

That picture brings up another FANTASTIC character called PRINCESS or JUN THE SWAN from Battle of the Planets/Gathaman.Heroine Addict wrote:Are you having the cape especially made? If so, maybe it could have the bottom corners at arm-length and the center just above the buttcheeks?

I just want to be fair and let you guys know this is Domi666's artwork. I am merely making suggestions and he's bringing it to life.
The cape will be specially made and the same rule as Knightwomans cape will apply. RIght above the butt.
So I think we're pretty close. Im also of the opinion that there can be 2 versions of the costume, and sometimes she could have sneakers and sometimes boots. I'll do my best to find a pair that will do the costume justice. I also have a woman who is willing to make them for me but she is pricey soooooooo that's where I am at with this at the moment.

This would be good for a busty model, but I think if you're casting a more waiflike model, the above high-neck-exposed-shoulders look is more flattering.tallyho wrote:How about a lower neckline or maybe a laced up one that gives a glimpse of the chest.?

So are you going with the concept of the edges hanging down lower than the center? Either in the "wings" style pictured above or in the slightly simpler style pictured below. While the butt remains visible from the back, the longer edges would give Robyn (and Knightwoman) a more graceful look as the cape swishes and flows.MightyHypnotic wrote:I just want to be fair and let you guys know this is Domi666's artwork.

I'm pleased to see the designs so far fasten with the traditional collar and button. String ties always look a bit too "party shop" to be worn by a superheroine.

The hotter the girl, the better looking the costume! All these Robyn costume ideas look pretty decent to me. There's a part of me that wants to see a version with a skirt with slit. I know, it's not easy designing by committee.

This one is OK by me for the young ingénue Robin/Robyn. I agree about the cape length, but allow us her butt cheeks peeping out below.MightyHypnotic wrote:Here's another variation. Looking at it now, I think I should've added more length to the cape, just a bit..
Elbow length opera gloves on heroines are great, but work better for me if they are leather [although the price is probably prohibitive].
The footwear on this version is a good compromise, although I too would like to see the Victoria "granny" boots referred to above.
If this character has been around for a while she might have developed a different style of costume, with armour and less flesh on display. But my personal taste is for the earlier character.

Those pics above with Lois and Clark as BM and Robin, just show more and more why Robin should have been a female character in the 60s show, lol.
The classic costume is a winner on a girl, specially if bare-legs are used
I think the green shorts should be a one piece leotard while the red 'shirt' is buttoned on top of it.
I like the use of green converse instead of boots and a short cape, the short cape gives a more juvenile look. And don't forget the little mask

Yeah thanks for reminding me
I have Shyla Jennings coming in and we are going to be setting up a fitting for her. But I am most likely making 2 of these for our B/G section of the site. I am still deciding who will play our Robyn for the B/G side of things...
Now that I am back full time I'm excited to start working on some great videos again!

So to get back with this, I don't know if I am a fan of the leotard PLUS the tunic look..
The two choices are thong or french cut panties and hose or possible a leo like the 2nd pic. Maybe I'll just create both
