This was my first pass at Razorfist for Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. As always when approaching a character, my first instinct is to reference as much of the original character as possible. In the comics Razorfist wears simple black pants and tank-top, a black wresting mask, and has two blade arms. I tried to reinterpret that silhouette as a hybrid of traditional chinese armor and modern tactical wear, and produced a range of layers toward a more traditional silhouette.
The blade arms were fun. I tried to come up with hands and forearms that could fold up into blades, with the fingers having a sharp V cross-section so they could nest over each other. It would have required a lot of VFX sleight-of-hand to make believable, but I think this concept makes it plausible enough for movie design.
