CROSSPOSTED FROM THE ARTIST CHALLENGE - GO CHECK OUT THE OTHER ENTRIES

Ta-daaaa!

Behold the glory of Ultimate Stilt-Man!

Okay, so it looks a lot like regular Stilt-Man - you can't mess with the classics, man!!!!
The only real changes I made were to get rid of the antennae on his earpieces, swap the wrist blaster for a heavier firearm, and change how the stilts work.

In regular continuity the stilts look to be solid metal, presumably sliding inside each other somehow when not extended (which makes no sense considering they all appear to be the same diameter). In this version, Wilbur Day has lost his legs due to (let your imagination run rampant), and while developing prosthetic replacements, he kinda went a little overboard and made a full suit of armour.

The stilts themselves are individual sections held together (or extended) via magnetic force, which of course means that dear old Wilbur shouldn't stand too close to Magneto, Polaris, or a computer monitor.

BONUS: Gdaygirl wanted to colour in, so I gave her the original drawing to work on. Next thing you know we have a beautifully coloured Stilt-Man hanging out with his good buddy, Spider-Man.
