Minor/Major Project - Honing in on a final idea

Another post about an exciting new development of ideas! The idea stems from my interest in supporting the LGBT community - and creating a good/fun representation of them; perhaps making diverse individuals who proudly display their sexuality, for example:

A set of superhero's who could be advertised on a poster, the side of a bus, a billboard, inside the Tube station etc, with unique designs.

I do also want to dabble in how women are usually heavily sexualised and turn it on its head; perhaps make a sexy man who appeals to the female gaze for once ( as well as gay men) but not make him camp; the moodboard below shows roughly what i'm talking about with some examples of sexy men that are rarely seen in todays media:

Also seen here is Wonder Woman more covered up than usual; more fierce, and more dominant. This is something I would like to consider; but also, the hero's can be of a different race to show diversity, as well as different body types such as: more thick, more muscular, taller, shorter, so that it relates more to us as real humans. I also need to take my level of realism down a notch to make things easier for myself. 

As for the style, there are a few options; when talking to Alan, we questioned how the "Top Trumps" style cards, advertisements/posters would be in the 70's/80's/90's: at a time when things were not as accepting, and it would be strange to see.

Another style could be that of a Reniassance style painting; showing elegance; there is a painting done by Sam Spratt for the promotion of rapper "Logic's" song, which looks like an elegant renaissance style painting, but is in face full of modern people, with a statue of a robot in the background laying in the traditional style. This would be interesting to do, however the level of realism needed would be challenging.

I do like the idea of an 80's theme: I enjoy the style and culture of the decade, and could make something really unique and bold.

"Anyway - I can imagine a series of posters featuring heroic kickass LGBTQ characters - essentially, turning bullied scared school kids into heroes - or giving them some heroic archetypes of their own to admire."
