Again I wish XM would stop with all the buckles and straps they put on these characters, 10+ buckles is overkill.

Would also prefer if the Pink and Blues were more vibrant in colour like this -



Other than that it's looking pretty sweet.

Yea, see what you mean about the buckles and vibrant colors. I do agree with you.

I noticed, tho, the buckles are slightly smaller this time. And if they were painted to match, then they'd be less noticeable. They merge well in the second pic.

Nonetheless, this is an awesome rendering of Archangel! So stoked!!

I'd scrap the shin pads as well to be honest, I know it's XM's unique take on these suits to have straps and pads on them but I think the more streamlined and uncluttered look is best for Archangel.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I'm in the the minority I suppose cause I actually like the modern looks XM is doing on statues like Archangel, Daredevil and others. I understand the desire for comic exactness but a change here and there is refreshing. The realistic spin XM is putting on the costumes is just another feature that sets them apart from other companies.

I like the buckles and straps... they make sense if you are going to stick with this "strappy" outfit. I personally always liked a little practicality mixed in with my superhero outfits.
