Looks fine to me. She's not naked, but wearing a bodice. Clothes will do that to you.

I'm loving everything I'm seeing so far. Scarlet Witch is my favorite Avenger, so I'm truly excited to see the full piece painted.

Just gonna copy and paste my comment from the sneaks thread....

Witchie poo! Please let her be pink and red!!

I know, I know, it’s just a render....but really hope that is not a scarf around her neck. And I can deal with the uncessary paneling on her boots, but that lacing is too much. She’s not a hooker (ala Emma). And I hope they make her base less odd, machine shop and more broken asphalt to match Iron Man.

I do love that the ultron bot looks like a mouser from TMNT. Two licenses in one!

Oh, I should say that the only lacing I want on Wanda are on her vintage gypsy look which is not what we have here.

I often wondered about some of the liberties with costumes on XM statues. Would these designs have been approved by Marvel. And I am surprised that Marvel would allow such changes to be made.

I like the details XM adds to the costumes. They look updated and more realistic.

Again I am concerned about the portrait (s). They will make or break it.

Not sure if you understood what I meant. I'm talking about the curve from her waist to her left hip to her left thigh. That curve (or transition) needs to be more like this:



That curve needs to be smoother like how Roberto did with his sculpt ...except Roberto's sculpt is from her waist to her right hip to her right thigh. Wanda's bodice only touches a small part of that curve, so it has little affect on it.

I think I do, and I still think the same. The bodice is tight, so it presses against Wanda's flesh. And as for the other 'bump' down the leg, well, she's got her leg bent higher than in Roberto's sculpt.

Like I said, it looks fine to me.

Also, Roberto’s sculpt has a VERY hourglass shape to the woman, Wanda isn’t sculpted that dramatcly. And this piece has multiple layers, the unitard, the leggings, and the boots. It’s not a bikini.
