I ran across an artist website that had a Gatchaman Redesign contest...thought you guys might get a kick out of the concepts... Gatchaman Redesign This one cracked me up!

Wow, great find Springie. I see some nice work over there. Although they all have the Owl as too much of a "fatty"

excellent artwork, although I find the characters a bit too "robotic" for my liking.

I agree...and I didn't like the fatty comment, either...poor Ryu never gets any respect!

LOL, that has always been my feeling about the poor Owl, always the least respected. I am not sure if I would say the characters were robotic, but the suits appear to be much more "armour" looking than the style I am use to.

I think that more 'armored'/'robotic' style is considered to be more modern, and less '60s superhero'. Neat find, Springie! It's interesting to see what the different artists did! One of them has Jun looking like a Halo girl!

A lot of creativity there! Cool find, Springie! Has me wondering now how I'd redesign them, if I ever had to...

Nice find, Springie! The artist is very creative, even though I would have to get used to such heavy armour! Wonder what kind of civvies they would have had in order to turn into these!

I find that Angry Bird Ryu very disturbing - it looks like he's having an allergic reaction to something that's swelling him up and turning him lobster red. I liked some of the others, but not all. Thanks for sharing, Springie!
