The guy in New Mutants is Sunspot, slightly different guy. Not that it matters.
So can he turn these powers off? If these armor pieces absorb that much light and heat from him, they’re probably gonna be very hot themselves, afterwards. So, if he were to turn off his powers while still wearing the armor, he might get burnt…
…This is why we shouldn’t think too deeply about superpowers.
@ Suleman – Thank you for the comments! Is that Sunfire that was in the new mutants (I think the group was called) years ago? I am really out of touch on about 80% of the Marvel characters now-a-days. That is a cool design, especially on the fingers.
My original idea of what few armor pieces Sunburst wears is that it was very absorbant of light, which is why it has little to no light reflection (hopefully I described that correctly). That’s actually true more so in the chest piece than the limb pieces. It also helps hold his power levels in check.
Great effects! I like how you essentially made them part of the costume, in a way. Also, nice minimalistic design, both memorable and powerful.
Kinda reminds me of Sunfire’s design in Marvel’s “Age Of Apocalypse”:

Here is a character for our ‘potential’ superhero game. He is made of solar energy which produces some fire as well. This was my first attempt to make fire. I have a ways to go to get better with it as I have seen some really good fire effects on here from other artists.
This character can be used for either good or evil in the game. Here is Sunburst.
ams, I think I’ve finally seen all your characters on here. I have to say when I saw some of you art for the first time about 2 weeks ago now, I was really inspired to step up what I was producing.
I’m very young with the HeroMachine and you are someone that has made a big impression on me, so thank you for that! What else can I say but fantastic job on all these characters.
Both great looking characters, Cliff!
Amazing job on the floating embers around Inferno. The way you used the colors and lighting to make that effect is perfect! Which, BTW, reminds me to remind you to check in on Bolts update with the lightning effect reduced (as per your suggestion) in his background.
Is Cyrus McCloud a character you have made somewhere in your gallery, or is this a new one for the gallery (obviously you said he is an old character)? If he is new to the gallery, are we going to get to see him in ‘solid’ form?
You know, that’s pretty good. (understatement)
Thank you, Magnus!
Another character update. This time for SIR RICHARD, the Brave.

@ Candruth – Thank you kindly! Working on Snow Angel was definitely more fun than usual. Everything seemed to just ‘flow’ when I was creating her.

Entry #1
Inferno
Made him just for the contest, but have no backstory as of yet..

Entry #2
Being an air sign (Aquarius) I decided to go with air as well.
An old time character concept, since high school in the 80s,
Cyrus McCloud aka London Fog
a London PI with the super powers to make any or all of his body into
smoke/fog/cloud
Here London Fog is using his powers to turn his body into fog for infiltration.

Inferno could be a victum of an accident
and not totally in control of his powers,
and he could be a protaganist for London Fog
hmmmmm…
