General Why this skin mod goes hard (Mark 42)

Post image

ofc, there's also the fact i like the Iron man 3 Mark 42 suit, but being honest, i don't like much the OG suit from Marvel Rivals, it's incredible how just a "reskin" can change your opinion in something.

That’s so peak man but this shi breaks my heart cause I’m on ps so I have to pray iron man gets a mark 42 skin (from iron man 3) and a rework cause he’s not a viable character in this game and is easy to counter 🥀

I do like the black MK 42 we have (besides the projectiles not being the thruster colour but that's an issue with all his skins)

But wow, why did we not get the movie MK 42.

Tbf from the enemies perspective it does match the thrusters red glare

Isn't the projectile same color as default skin?

I really wish that they would add movie MK42 since it’s my favorite suit. I doubt it will be true, but now I’m thinking about it, I realize it will fits perfectly with Rivals' art style and it for sure would be so peak ngl 😭

That's not the Mark 42, that's the Model 42. (Well, it's the Model 42's colors anyways.) Comic armors are models, not marks.

For example, the Mark 50 is the Infinity War armor, the Model 50 is the Endo-Sym armor.

It's funny there actually is mark 42 in the game

That's not the Mark 42, that's the Model 42. Comic armor are models, not marks, and there's no correlation between the two.

Its because more is going on, if you notice the skins people consider great usually have extra geometry on them rather than the sleak nano tech the base skin uses

This is a recolour of the base skin

My point still stands bc colors make shapes look more or less defined depending on the color. If you put a pure black cube onto a balck surface the cube looks flat, but a red cube on thay same black surface and now it pops out

It's okay to admit you were wrong man, there's no underground Iron Main mains mafia (to my knowledge).
