We all know that Leon and heavy metal music go together like bread and butter. It's just a fact. Playing Bodies by Drowning Pool and unleashing Leon's brutality has become a staple for his character. If you haven't done that, I suggest you try it out before you continue reading. A very satisfying experience.

So I put together what felt like a natural costume for his character, something that we've all (more or less) thought about, but never really put into perspective.

- A Lion head helmet/mask for Leon's namesake, with glowing white/red eyes to showcase his ferocity.

- Brown suede biker jacket with wool fur interior and lapels, for a Lion look.

- Heavy metal baggy pants, black beater shirt, spiked straps, and skull boots.

- Golden crown belt buckle, because Lion's are the king of the jungle.

- As well as some golden Lion leg rings for some added coolness.

- His steel cuffs and chains resemble that of a beast gone loose, and makes use of them by wrapping the chains around his knuckles for that extra hurt.

- And last but not least, his signature "Strongest in the World" symbol, gold chained around his neck. Because Leon is a badass fighter, and he deserves a badass gold chain.

not a fan of the belts restricting his leg movement but besides that, that look is AWESOME. Aslan gonna wreck some shit!

i will say his belt and neck chain should've been silver though. Gold doesn't look right on him.

I understand what you mean, I like a prestine silver look myself. But I found the gold to give him more of a gritty old school biker look, and to blend in more as a royal Lion colour.

As for the spiked straps, I have no justification for them, they just looked cool to me :3

@KnacKrover
Hell yes!! *air guitars*

S/O @Chisa i know you're an artist if you don't submit something this year I'll be very mad. Hope she sees this lol

I most likely won't do anything for this contest. I only have couple ideas and they are so generic they are not worth of drawing.

same problem i've been having. like i tossed out spider noy, wraith leon, kung fu mila, etc.

it doesn't help we aren't allowed to have scary costumes.

Some ideas I had. Correct me if it has been submitted already:

Rig as a yakuza (with new tattoos)
Zack as a surfer (with a cool board)
Momiji as a futakuchi-onna
Matching costumes for Tina, Lisa and Zack as a band (with guitars, headphones)
Honoka and Marie-Rose as cakes (orange and strawberry)
Zack as a frog prince (because of his 66P+K which always made me feel his animal theme was a frog)
Hitomi as the cabbage queen or as a chef (with a cabbage)
Leon as a genie (with a turban and jewels)
Brad as a potion maker/alchimist (with test tubes)
Bayman as a yeti or a knight (with white fur... don't tell WWF it's from a polar bear shhh)
Rig as a firefighter (with a big pipe)

Something simple but i'd love to see Nyotengu as a cute ladybug :)
