I feel that a mixture of Frank Quitely Clark Kent and Cris Reeve's portrayal of him in the Superman films to be the best disguise. When you mix that up you get a clumsy, head sunked between the shoulders, Bowlegged, slightly stuttering, might of been a nerd in highschool, cowardly Clark. I not only see the confident exterior when he puts on the red, blue and yellow tights but sort of a exhale. The chance for him to breath and be himself. To me Superman is truly who he is.
I could be wrong though...tell me what your thoughts are guys and what ya think.
Dude you gave some great motivation and references good job, but why make him so big he's almost borderline husky instead of an adonis like body ya know.
I always assumed Clark Kent was always who he was, a bumbling but very kind fellow from humble Smallville. When he dons the costume to save the day, it's like how any other person is when they're in a tight situation: we put aside our fears and doubts and we do what we think is right.
I see it as neither Superman or Clark is the disguise. For one, I think that would be incredibly exhausting for him to pretend to be this Clark Kent character for so much of his time. I like to think of Clark Kent as who he really is; he's shy, not very confident, and just overall not very sure of himself or his place in the world. As Superman, he doesn't have to hide his abilities, so he feels much more confident. Plus, Superman gets all the praise and accolades, so of course he's going to feel more confident about himself as Superman. When he's Clark Kent, he feels he has nothing to offer to make people like him or be impressed by him, so he becomes more introverted. So neither is a disguise, it's just that being Superman gives him confidence.
I like seeing pictures like this as they show quite a thought in character design.
what about adding your own twist to Superman's suit like you have with the others?
