I agree, horrible.
SS is better than this one. Much better.

That is from Xionart...aka Syco... I wouldn't buy from them if they were the last company on the planet. I think the head on this is 10-15% to small, and the whole piece is just the Superman they did with breasts

There is NO bigger scammer in this hobby than Xionart... full stop ... the end. He stole thousands from collectors and left artists unpaid. If you are buying from them you are supporting the worst of the worst in this hobby.

Geez ...apparently companies can't get Supergirl right if its in a scale bigger than 1/6 scale. That Xion Supergirl is terrible.
I guess the wait continues......

The normal portrait looks a lot better... but it still has the issue of scale (head vs body)... Even with that issue, the pose is 100% better then SS whacky take on Supergirl in space.

Started thinking about what you said, girl next door. I started this last night, just a work in progress with only a few hours on it but...I don't know maybe it'll work when I'm done.

Yeah, I finally caved and got it too.

I'm just not a fan at all. I don't like the Sideshow version either, but I would take it over this anyday.

We need a DP like the one in your Avatar. John Byrne did it the best!

I went back and forth about getting the Xionart one. The more I looked at it though the more I just didn't like how small her head looked compared to the body.
