Lady Nilstria: I told you. The challenge

Lady Nilstria submitted:

I told you. The challenge is *on*. With that said, I think Kanthara’s is better just because she used the word “egregious.”

Anyway, I originally didn’t want to do this one since Kanthara did do such a thorough job, but hey, what else do I have to do other than study for three exams? XD

I tilted Rogue’s hip the opposite of Kanthara. This is because when I stood in both positions, I found mine to be more natural, but I think this depends on several factors. I moved her left hand because there was such a disconnect between what the hand was actually doing it took me awhile to realize she’s dropping her glove. (Though, I did notice the dropped glove is actually posing like there’s still a hand in it, which I find hilarious.)

I changed her facial expression because she looks like she’s high on cocaine. I also changed the way her cape works because like someone mentioned before, it’s like there are two different winds at work on the cloth, and that makes no sense. I wanted to preserve the line though, so I messed with it a little.

Lastly, I changed Gambit’s hand because quite frankly, men don’t touch things like that. He’d have his entire hand going for her buttock and we all know it. I moved his hand up her hip towards her waist as if he’s using it to pull her closer, which makes my decision of her stance have more sense. The original gives no real purpose to what his right hand is doing. But I’m horrible at drawing hands around waists, so you’ll have to forgive me for that.

Need I mention how MASSIVE their hands are?

I like that you made his hand pulling her closer, because as you said, his hand wasn’t doing anything before, and it makes the picture look like he’s in the middle of drawing her closer for a kiss.  I think the cape was a good catch too.  Not a big thing, but a nice little attention to detail. :)
