Yeah, the original one was given chicken arms to account for the bulk of the coat, so she looked quite odd without it.

I heard the faux leather has problems in long term. Does anybody know what causes it and how to prevent it?

Yeah exactly that's what I'm worried about. I would 100% buy this with a sculpted jacket or removable one.

There's a harshness in the eyes I'm seeing, like they're really deep set. Is it me? Is it the lighting/shadow?

I agree. I would literally be sitting here ready to PO if it was a sculpted jacket. But, I'm really not sure at this point.

2018 is the year that SS taking all the pieces to the insanely flying-out pose: Magneto-Supergirl-Thor-Rogue-X23-more to come?!
So like it or not, it is the current trend for SS.

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

I agree that her face doesn’t look “classic” Rogue, but I still think she looks great, incredibly hot, and I’m looking forward to add her to my Gambit PF.

This is the other side of sculpting realistic statues. The realism in these portraits is hit and miss. Sometimes it looks very human and less cartoony, but the price is that face looks like an actress that you saw in a movie that one time but you just can't place it.

Like the sculptor casted somebody to be in your statue and you had no say in it. This attractive woman is playing Rogue. May be not what you had in mind but here you go.
