I'm actually glad they nixed the blue star on her face, and happy to see her back in her 80's blue and yellow. Not really feeling the pink hair though, should have left it that light blonde.

Agreed. Gotta love that star. :D
Yeah, I'm all about the star. And Heroine Addict, those are my 2 fave modern looks for her too!!

Clay Mann's designs for Age of X were just amazing (aside from the half-naked ones, those were a bit excessive LOL) and his Ali in particular was a stand-out. Too bad the X-office seems to always go for the weaker designs when it comes to the regular looks.

These are some amazing pics, love the way she’s drawn, and the Star looks much better here.
Echo all the praise heaped on those 2 mod Dazz designs, fellow Ali fans, from AoX & X-Treme!! So I need your thoughts & advise, I'm sure y'all remember [I]this:[/I]

But what do you think, yay or nay, or in between? Tryin' to get an idea from her fans, what they think a good, updated look would be for her, to use as a sort of guide & source of reference. Oh, and this might've been/probably has been shown already, but from rumored upcoming Storm solo artist Jen Bartel:

I manipped that a few years ago. Someone grabbed it and slapped the gun back on to use as a trading card roleplay game thingie.
No disrespect to Bachalo - of whom I am a fan - but I just did not like the Future Foundation look to it. I had to take the gun away because she [I]IS[/I] the gun and from there it kinda snowballed. :)

Crap, that's right! I should've known that... [I]I think I did know that[/I] [SIZE=1](as I regularly check your latest, @Deviant)[/SIZE], lol, and just forgot probably. The ol' gray matter ain't what it used to be, I guess. MANY reasons for that, I'm sure. ;)
But seriously, Lightengale, yours is WAY better & I think it roX! I LOVE it, and don't think it's too busy at all: the addition of more black; the silver, disco ball, mirrored chain side-rails; the silver, one-eye-star; the darker, more natural amber-colored hair; and of course, no gun, but instead her signature [B]hand[/B]gun pose COMPLETE... [I]with lit fingertip[/I] - just [U]STELLAR[/U]!
Between AoX, X-Treme, and now your new & MUCH improved reduX of her original, MUCH less inspired S.H.I.E.L.D. redesign, I think we got ourselves some REAL good eXamples of what an eXcellent, updated, modern take [I]CAN[/I] & [B]SHOULD[/B] look like... and it SURE as hell AIN'T THIS:

I didn't like this version, since it's once again a copy/paste from Bachalo. This is basically Lady Mastermind. Shame. Dazzler would never be caught dead in a villain's old duds.

To be fair, the design was worn by her first (in AOA)

Hehe. No prob. I didn't post it on DeviantArt. It's not a fully realized piece and was just done for fun. Think I only shared it on my FB and maybe Tumblr. I tried staying within the realm of what it was while keeping it distinctly Dazzler. It's certainly less busy than the original, so... Yeah. ;)
It's unfortunate that successfully redesigning Dazz seems difficult for the pros when so many fans have been doing it for ages, but it does seem like a genuine affection for the character often makes the difference.

Yes, agreed, their must be an inherent passion present. Like with all [I]your work,[/I] where it [I]SHOWS,[/I] what [I]TRUE[/I] love of Dazzler looks like! 8)

?... Speakin' of AoA, what did fans think of that look?

I like it. Gives me a very Jem (of the Holograms) vibe :).
Although I imagine it would probably raise some eyebrows, for a variety of reasons :p.
