Marvel Studios concept artist Jared Marantz posted some of his designs on ArtStation that emblazoned alternate versions of the Ten Rings used by Simu Liu who was the lead in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.
“I got a chance to work on the rings for Shang Chi,” he wrote in the caption. “Was surprised that my buddy Andy Park put me on these. I usually don’t get the opportunity to work on props, but these were some pretty important props so I was excited to take a stab at it. My good friend Jackson Sze ended up getting the final design. He did an incredible job on that show.”
The color of the ten rings is Lime green which seems to have been Marantz’s color of choice, though it’s unclear if that was something mandated by Marvel Studios or by his own creative mind.
