I like this very very much because...
1) She looks so light and graceful. A Psylocke like this in an actual comic would just be visually fascinating, and
2) She actually looks like a Japanese person, not just a standard comic book female with more vertically-compact eyes. Slim bone structure, flat rear end, relatively small-ish breasts, and no-fold eyelids. And I'm not forgetting the sash and the subtly-textured leotard either.
3) Yet you keep the fey/English aspect of the character as well with the pointed ears.
Just gorgeous.

Hi Billaboyj,
Thanks for the kind words.. It is really nice to see you noticed the details on this - I had actually given up on it as people didn't seem to understand what I was trying to convey and preffered the vanilla flavoured version that we see around... I always thought that the grace and femininity i personally associate with japanese girls (and you noticed my funny ears - although they are more style than deliberate 
Thanks again - and for the other faves!

I'm absolutely the last person to gainsay the immortal principles of T&A followed by the mainstream comics industry, but comics are a visual medium. The images are meant to tell the story (maybe more than the words), and you just don't see that with the house styles. Adam Hughes can draw some very nice breasts, but every female is the basically the same female for him (until distinguished by the speech bubbles -- if then), and in a narrative context, that's just boring. Contrast with Charles Schulz, who would draw maybe a hundred lines in an entire strip, but he used those hundred lines at a time to create some of the most compelling and subtle characters in the history of sequential art.
It's always thrilling to see images that try to use all means available to the medium to tell a story -- color, line, structure, texture... And this image of Psylocke really does that.
So yeah... I'm glad I could give you some encouragement. Keep up the good work.
