As a self-proclaimed creative, Micro Heroes have always intrigued me. You know, those little pixel-drawn renditions of super-heroes fans make themselves and post around the Internet based on various templates? While I liked them, the urge to dive in and make my own never hit me. Something else else about the proportions never appealed to me. Then I found template bodies based on Bruce Timm's designs from the DC Animated Universe. I love that style an unhealthy amount. Consider me converted! I've been working on these on and off for a few years and decided to start posting them to motivate myself to finish more. I'd like to one day have made a representation of every Legion character in every costume ever depicted. Below are my first offerings. I've got dozens more done but I'm waiting until I either have an entire team finished or every variation of a character finished before I post more sets. Disclaimers: I don't own the Legion. I recognize that not every costume variation or Elseworlds is included yet. While I designed the costumes myself, most of the faces/heads were kitbashed together using other people's work. Total Micros: 1324

Thanks guys!
Now the question is: do I appease my OCD and keep posting them in order of joining or go ahead and post ones I've already completed?

Thanks everyone for the continued compliments! Originally posted by Candlelight:

Thanks for sharing these! There's so much interesting trivia when you sit down and look over the history of these outfits. They all have so many repeating motifs, usually based off the Adventure and Cockrum eras. And it's interesting to see who ends up with more costume variations depending on the continuity.

oh yes ... and in order! I love costume doodling as well and these are a fun excuse for me to really scrutinize and enjoy the different details other artists have put into their own designs and interpretations. A big perk to taking on an overwhelming project like this is to have a handy resource to see all the different costumes a Legionnaire has worn. I enjoy that stuff so much when other sites do it for the X-Men and other heroes.

These are all kind of fun to see!
Don't forget Lu's yellow number she wore in the Pain Plague issue in the low numbers of SUPERBOY AND THE LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES!

I love that you've included the Emerald Legion nd Arthian Legions in the looks.
Have you thought about the 1,000,000 AD Annual that came out?
I ask because I just saw a Batman/Superman about them that came out recently.

I definitely have plans to get to them, as well as the other future Legions glimpsed in the Adult Legion stories and the Dead Earth annuals. Probably once I exhaust the core Legionnaires I plan to start doing series of teams (like 1,000,000) and also going back and doing civilian clothes and more minor costume variations (the kind which are more artist to artist and less creative intent).
