Stunning KITTY PRYDE Art by Kevin Wada
Check out this stunning series of character art featuring X-Men's Kitty Pryde. The designs were done by artist Kevin Wada., and as you can see they turned out great. Here's a note from the artist,
"These Kitty pieces are so much fun for me. Single figure, no background, lots of flashy costumes. Heaven. "
When talking about the first four illustrations as shown above he says,
"The top piece is costume 1, and I’m really happy with how this one came out. I think it has the best movement of all the pieces and while it’s a silly looking costume in reality, the color blocking is really cool and hopefully I implemented it well. Below and to the left is costume 2, which is one of the first Shadowcat costumes I had ever seen outside of her traditional yellow and black getup. I remember seeing it on a poster hanging in my ex-boyfriend’s room and thinking…what the fuck is that? If the first one costume is an ice skating outfit, this one is pure pirate. It’s a painfully simple uniform once you break it down and probably not all that easy to fight in. But that HAIR. I’m loving giving her back her huge curly hair. Costume 3 is on the right and it gave me pause. The commissioner really wanted some side and backside shots of Kitty and I was left with the issue of showing her backside with out falling prey to the gratuitous booty shot in which so many female comic characters are posed. Hopefully, I made her look strong, powerful, and focused, and not booty-tooched and objectified. Costume 4 is Kitty from X-men: Evolution and I had such a blast doing my own spin on a tv show version of the character. It really is an odd uniform when you look at the details, if incredibly simple. Whenever there’s a ton of black or an almost-black-dark-color on a figure, I love coming up with ways to describe form. Where her arm and shoulder overlap with the black of her torso was a fun portion of the figure to stylize."Check out the rest of the designs below!
