I think this is it for Rachel.
Did as much cleaning as I could, fixed her boot, and added the Hound tattoos I forgot.
I have a little time to go back and reply to comments.

Oh thank you very much! I wanted to keep them, but I thought it might have been a little too excessive with the Phoenix earrings.Originally Posted by Blackphoenix
OMG, YES, YES, YES, YES PLEASE! <3 Although I totally understand if you couldn't because of the weather, you have my condolences.Originally Posted by Zhaxra
I thought you'd totally make a new costume for Revanche, but she's coming together very, very beautifully. Get crackin', only ONE entry for this X-Jam so far? I am disappoint.
Thanks! I think the submissions have all been great. I think it's pretty rad that people are making their own take on their chosen characters.Originally Posted by Panic
Thanks! I really hope I brought justice to Abby.Originally Posted by Art School Dropout
Thanks! :> It was the first time I've ever used those markers and I kept accidentally making them bleed. I'm glad it sorta worked out in the end.Originally Posted by Beezzi
Wow, thank you very much. Abby is one of my favorite characters so I'm glad you thought I did great (space) justice.Originally Posted by EternalSiryn

If only... I need to see a live action Abby, stat!Originally Posted by Friendly Belligerent
Balthier: I doubt we'll find her wanting in valor, being such an upstanding member of the insurgence.
Ashe: Resistance.
I really love what you did to her face, she's gorgeous.Originally Posted by JudicatorPrime
Marrow! <3 I'm one of those odd people that really like her, so thank you for making her looking awesome.
Way too cute.
Oh she's so pretty. The costume reminds of something Bachalo-y.
I really like that dim-light Deodato coloring you've got going on.
Yum, Bishop has always been a favorite.
I like the detail you put into the armor, that coloring is pretty rad.
I really like her anatomy in this. She's got an interesting combination of voluptuousness and daintiness.
I really like what's going on with her hair, though I'm sad her face is obscured.
HAHAHAHA! This is genius, I love it.

Will do (I had already started it actually). Hope to have her and Revanche done this weekend.
Query: Is Rachel's boots completely yellow or just the middle with red on the outside like her top?
See, that was my error in judgement. I thought it was draw a X-Person in anyone of their costumes, not a re-design jam. So all the re-designs, as wonderful as they are have been throwing me off.
I was actually waiting so Lily's Psylocke first so i could play off it, but scrapped that idea early on. So went with a standard 'female power pose' pioneered by Lynda Carter.
My magique will be finished by Thursday.
Here's the base B&W, along wiht the flat colors from Photohop. Will be adding more detail and color overlays over next couple days.
That's looking great, Tazirai.
Friendly Belligerent, you've knocked it out of the park once more. I'm loving your style.
Same here. I've tried to stay as close to the original concept as possible, but it's hard not to veer off into your own design. Truth is, some of the costumes here are far and away better than the original comic book versions.
Great homage. She was one of my first movie star crushes. As a kid my parents thought I watched Wonder Woman because I read comics and liked the super heroics, but it was to see Ms. Carter. Blue eyed brunettes have been my weakness ever since.So went with a standard 'female power pose' pioneered by Lynda Carter.
Thanks for all the kind words folks. When I was sketching him initially my goal was to "modernize" him by losing the blades and ponytails, and generally giving him a sleek clean leather look. You know, making him relevant.
Then it occurred to me that without all the bells and whistles Adam X doesn't really have his own look.
