Thor's Original Gladiator Armor Design in THOR: RAGNAROK Was Super Different! Here's Some Concept Art
I really liked the design of Thor’s Gladiator armor in Thor: Ragnarok, but it could have been a completely different design! As you’ll see it makes Thor look completely unrecognizable.
The concept art below comes from concept artist Aleksi Briclot, who said on Instagram that the design was an "early exploration" of the costume design and says that it was meant to pay tribute to the work of legendary comic book artist Jack Kirby, who created some pretty crazy and epic visuals.
This is definitely a departure from the classic Thor look, but I like the design! It’s very different and I understand why they didn’t go with the design because you gotta see Thor’s face, but it’s still cool looking! What do you think of this early alternate armor design for Gladiator Thor?
