Partly inspired by Darwyn Cooke's design of the Amazonian in New Frontier (probably my favourite comic book). Obviously my work is nothing compared to Darwyn's work. The sword and shield are based on real greek designs. What I wanted was a design that could be used in the city setting and back on Themyscira (country of the Amazons). Something that Darwyn Cooke did that truly is inspired in New Frontier was making Wondie actually taller than Superman. He illustrates her as muscly, but feminine at the same time and I have no idea how he does it.
Oh, by the way. Don't you think Olivia Wilde should play Wonder Woman. To me she doesn't look like someone pretending to be an Amazonian Warrior. I also think she looks slightly mediterranean, because, what people seem to forget is Wonder Woman is greek!
