I must say i'm honestly surprised to see so much negative feedback regarding this reveal, looks absolute gorgeous, the best of the x-women so far imo.

I think Emma Frost is the best looking portrait so far! I am badly hoping Rogue will change that!

It's really in the eyebrows. Here's my quick shop take. Softened up the jaw and cheekbone a bit too. Lots of beautiful women have very square jaws (Hayley Atwell? Margot Robbie?) but the totality of the makeup, cheekbones, eyebrows and jaw on this add up to something less feminine IMO. Since we're going for an idealized beautiful woman that's not necessarily good. Looking forward to seeing what good custom painters can do with this sculpt.

Those qualities are not reserved for men only.
All very true.

But at the end of the day they still look like women.

I'm not so sure I can say the same about this statue unfortunately. If it wasn't for the body or the long hair......

But again it's great that most on this board seem to be totally on board with the statue.

I agree on the eyebrows. I think fix in the eyebrows will be game changing.

It'll be real funny, if that's all it would take to fix the 'perceived' issue!

But then again some us saw what a repaint did to the facesculpt on Sideshows Gal Gadot premium format.
