I?ve asked so times in so many ways. I also have the light blue on order because the original dark blue was too purple/indigo in my opinion.

Jay posted this picture in his Facebook stories. I asked him and he confirmed it is the light blue version. I?m happy how it looks so I will stick to my original order.

Where is the piece of cape that wraps around his left leg?

Thanks for posting that. I'm going to stick with my order, as well.

Great, that's helpful. Funny how the yellow parts on the light blue piece look orange on the dark blue.

Honestly, this comparison still doesn?t help. These photos are taken in completely different lighting conditions, which you can see in the skin tones. Also, probably why the yellow looks orange on the dark blue suit image. We either need a true side by side under studio lights (non strobing, no fluorescents), or individual shots with the same conditions with the white balance correctly adjusted (use a 50% Grey card).

These still aren?t accurate, but it?s closer in my opinion. I adjusted according to the grey backdrop, which I assume was the same for both shots. I don’t think they’re using a grey card to adjust white balance though. Again you can see the difference in the skin tones. The dark blue Superman is noticeably lighter so I would expect the actual suit to be darker. Something else to consider is that the shadowing is much more pronounced on the lighter blue.

Maybe it’s just camera angles, but the younger portrait seems to have a longer neck than the older portrait, making the statue a bit taller.

I asked Jay about this. He said they're working with a semi-flexible material for the cape and they're working with the factory on the best kind.
