I like everything but the portraits. I would have liked the hooded head to be looking down to give it that ominous dark feeling similar to the Moore statue.
Also that little piece of hair on her face drives me nuts.

I like the torso, legs, costume, but everything else is meh. I hate being force to pay for two statues when I only want one. The pose is unnatural, she is over equipped, holding too much and we all agree the portraits are ok. I think they are slowly improving their portraits, like on Dark Phoenix.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Looking at the studio photos done by XM. I see statue is very disproportionate. 1. Neck is too long. 2. Body too long. 3. Legs too short. 4. Portraits are so-so.

I do like Witchblade quite a bit and LOVE Darkness, but Magdalena is an enormous fail to me. Both portraits are awful, both in the blank deer-in-headlights stare, but also in how the hair is done. The pose is rather dull, and I cannot stand the enormous angel statue that comes with her - not only because I hate the color it's painted, but it also adds hundreds of extra dollars on to the statue cost for no reason.
I really hope if they do Angelus, she is not done by the person who did Magdalena.

I actually don't mind the change in body type here (except both stoner, dead eye portraits). There are people with all of those features. We are just so used to leggy, statuesque, perfect representations of super models as comic book characters that Magdelena looks regular.
I don't remember the character being super leggy. I do recall her having a larger chest and being way more exposed in the midsection. Being so covered could be lending a shrinking look to this.

They need to put whomever did Batgirl, Ivy, and/or Dark Phoenix on this. I'd prefer whomever did Ivy and Batgirl -- those portraits are stunning.

I was hoping for whoever did Storm. Whoever sculpted Storm knows how to sculpt a gorgeous face and body.
