Description
This is the colored version of the New Commission that did for me.For a while now I wanted to do some kind of artwork with one of my favorite X-men, Kurt Wagner, otherwise known as Nightcrawler.
The inspiration that I got for his outfit came from another deviant artist. So I'd like to thank and her Nightcrawler Peice
The reason why it took me so long to color this one is because of two things.
First even though some would say it's simple but it only does from a certain perspective. Coloring the uniform with only three simple colors (and their various gradations) but the outfit itself as multiple surface areas and that's what made it difficult.
The second most difficult part of this was the "Bamf Smoke". It was a challenge and something that I had never done as far as my photoshop techniques. Thankfully here at DeviantArt there are dozens of tutorials on this subject.
So I would like to thank for his Smoke Effect Tutorial
Though after it was done I decided to do two versions. One with smoke and one without.

This is superior to the version without smoke. Even though he's wearing a fairly dark outfit, the overall image is very bright. Good job!

Though if you'll look I combined two looks of his. The internal suit and the jacket.

Her and Shadowcat (Kitty Pride) in my opinion.

but u have to give her some points with her being goth
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
of course, yes.
But I like Kitty Pryde for her sweetness.

i do like where with a quick rare shot of Rouge barefooted it is shown she wears a gold toe ring

I prefer seeing the rest of the girl but hey *shrug* "different strokes for different folks" as my uncle used to say.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i do too, it was just a rare spot, Kitty had complete sole shots but still cant beat the lovely gothic Rouge
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Then again another reason why I like Kitty is because of that hint at the pairing between her and Kurt (Nightcrawler)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
nah, i preferred the girl that caught him change to normal and teleported
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I used to know her name but now I lost it.

Which is what makes Kitty a little better.
