What art piece was this based on??
Basically these all has the younger girl look to them than the sideshow ones that people complain out looking too old. The pics says it all. Same with every time people post pics of the women. For male characters no one cares how old they look for the most part. Guess its typical these days and it's what sells.

Hopefully there will be a swap out arm and head. Not a fan of the blowing a kiss pose.

Since the Adam Hughes line is dead, I'd love to see a classic Storm in the Brooks line.

Watch out. The one legged running pose is about to pass the Captain Morgan in popularity. I'd worry about leans, but SS must be confident in their engineering to use this pose so often. There might be hope for Flash just yet....

This Mark Brooks line has lost a lot of momentum. After a head-scratching Spider-Man base and terrible QC on production pieces, it's hard to give Black Cat a fair shake. I will say the pose looks good and the sculpt is pretty if not sexy - not a fan of the blue eye shadow.

I bet the long SDCC days were the issue. I’ve been lucky to not meet any negative artists. Then again, I’m not pushy or asking for 30 things to be signed.
Wow. Have you posted it here? I'd love a Mark Brooks commission, but figured like many big names he wouldn't do them.

It’s up in my ComicArtFans page After all these years I still haven’t mastered posting bigger images here!

It was dumb luck that he selected request. I think I scored bc he has never drawn her. Social media (Instagram) was the key for me to know he was even taking a list. That is how I scored my STUNNING Yardin too!

She's too cute. I hope she comes with a good ex, I like her current head and arm but wouldn't be opposed to a different look.

She will be 1/5 scale correct? like the Spidey, Silk and Gwen previously released?

This is stunning. One if the best She Ra drawings I've seen. Would love having something of this quality framed behind the statue of her.
