Thirty pages, day 23

Day 23: again with the comics.\n\n\n\nThis is where trying to come up with poses without benefit of a reference image shows its disadvantages. Clearly I've a long way to go when it comes to action scenes.\n\nX-23 for day 23. I'd never actually heard of her, so when David requested I try my hand I had to do a little crash course on the character. The short of it is that she's basically a female clone of Wolverine. The long story is, well, I had to stop reading because my head hurt -- never try to read a vita of any particular comic-book superhero, since they're all pretty much insane. The perils of trying to find ways of saving the world on a monthly basis, I guess!\n\nShe doesn't look much like X-23 here. In fact, I probably could have lied and told you this was Xena instead, or maybe Elektra on a bad day, and you would have believed it. Obviously I need to work on drawing cute goth clothes.\n\nI also need to work on not taking two days per sketch. Eyes on the prize, Eden. You're almost there.
