This is where we say HOLY SH**!  That is some serious rogueage!  I simply love the way the electricity was done on her gloves, really spectacular!

If I had to nitpick it would be on the following:

– There seems to be an extra muscle bulge on the right calf, our right not hers.  It doesn't look very realistc and it also looks like that muscular bulge doesn't belong there.

– Her facial expression doesn't really match what she's doing.  It's more like "Oh… yeah I'm just generating 100,000 gigavolts of electricity."

– Not liking the shape of the boots for aesthetic reasons, seems just too bulky and ugly.  Skintight would be a heck of a lot more interesting to look at than those.  Only an opinion though…

– On the left glove, our left not hers, you missed a spot where the background belongs.  It's all white instead of blue where the sky is and I know it's not a part of the glove because it is a solid white color.

– Lastly, her boobs look a bit too smushed in that robotic strap she's got on there.

Other than that freaking great job!

Thanks for the critiques Collector I'll just throw out a few comments in my defense

1. The bulge on the calf is actually supposed to be there, but I accidentally put it on the wrong side of the leg. The bulge is the tibialis anterior which you can feel if you put your hand on your shin and point your foot upwards.

2. The lightning was kind of a last minute thing out of boredom, so everything else would naturally not match. I'll just make the excuse that generating lightning from her hand is a subtle and insignificant gesture for her, like breathing or blinking. Naturally it would seem so, being that some of the greater abilities she gained from Apocalypse like changing her molecular structure make generating lightning seem like cake walk.

3. I would agree on the boots. The costume is a modified carbon-copy of Apocalypse's costume from the X-Men: Evolution series as a tip-of-the-hat tribute to the original designs. I tried to make the whole costume as sensuous as possible, but there's only so much I could do with what I had.

4. Concerning the white spot at the glove, that was a big blunder on my spot. I saw that every time I worked on the image and I can't believe I never got around to fill in that blank spot before posting the image. I'll fix it up right away and repost the image in the morning.

5. I can never get breasts right for some reason. I guess it's a prime example of what happens to your work if you don't have the proper resources if you know what I mean.  😛
