Artist's Comments

"I wanna see Polaris" said the incredibly talented in the comments section of my "Nightcrawler" deviation. [link]

So, here is Polaris.

Who is Polaris? you may ask. Well, she's one of those X-Men. A very, very obscure X-Woman. Named Lorna Dane, got green hair, magnetic powers, and an absolutely awful collection of costumes: [link] I didn't want to draw any of those, so I just designed a new costume, which is very loosely inspired by her very first uniform. I don't know if it's really an improvement, but designing it was a lot of fun.
Now that I think of it, I almost never draw these superheroes wearing their original clothes, so this is no exception.

The uber flowing hair is an homage to *Ginjirou, since she inspired this deviation. Her characters always have the most amazing hair.

I was also somewhat inspired by Ross Campbell recent batch of X-Men fanart, which you can see here:

If you like this, you'll find other X-Women in my gallery:

Dark Phoenix
Rogue
Blink
Psylocke

Awesome piece. Its actually a reasonably nice costume, especially good by her standards. Her skin tones work well with it.

Super impressed
