Black Panther's Costume
On his personal Instagram account Jerad S. Marantz described it as "early [Black Panther concept art]". He said he "tried to incorporate Ryan's Meinerding's design language he established in the original design from [Captain America: Civil War]."
"Back view of a black panther design option. This was an option I did for the film."
"This pass was about using very minimal armor and really just seeing what we could do with fabric alone. The director wanted to see this option. In the early days of the comic Black Panther had a half mask briefly."
Shuri's Gauntlets
Constantine Sekeris is a professional concept artist who's worked on cinema films like Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Thor: The Dark World, and The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.
"Here is an early exploration [of] Shuri costume concept design for her battle scene [at] the end of the film for Black Panther," Constantine said on his personal Instagram account. "I did some early passes at her costume design based on a design language established by Ryan Meinerding and Adi Granov.....for the final design of the film Tully Summers designed her costume."
"Here is the final gauntlet design for Shuri in Black Panther for her battle scene at the end of the film," he said adding "Her gauntlets were a challenge for me. [With] Ryan's art direction I was able to finalize this design for the film...I want to also mention that without my good friend Jerad Marantz showing tips in ZBrush I wouldn't be able to do this complicated layering and [technical] detail for this gauntlet."
