  1. I really like the background on this, and the way the highlight in the clouds connects strom and forge together.

  2. Is this one supposed to be ironic? I don't think it works on any level.

  3. As Anonymous said, this one can either be ironic or totally shameful. And it's not just the unnecesary change in their facial expressions... Storm just went from being a powerful, majestic female figure to a DDD Cup playmate with dizzy eyes. WTF.

  4. I love how my comment was deleted. I hope this one will stay if I "tone down" my distaste. I agree with both Anonymous and Snob that this recreation really cheapens the power and sentiment of BWS's original. It doesn't even feel like an homage, but more like a belittling of the original cover.

  5. I hate to break it to you, if I deleted your comment, it would say so in the comments section. So far, I've only deleted comments by the poster's request or if it's spam.

  6. There should be a "but" between the "comment," and "it". Shame I can't edit.

  8. Excellent job! I like the subtle detail of them staring out at the distance rather than the camera.
