After going through so many coloring and seam variations, I realize that the design I dreamed up wasn't going to cut it as a comic book costume. So I decided to make it more graphic. If you don't know who the original Marvel Girl was, one of her most popular costumes involved a green belted mini-skirt with a red buckled belt. Rachel is her future daughter from an alternate timeline (don't ask). So I had to incorporate a mini, but the previous designs were looking too go-go dancer, so in came the graphic black lines and out went the leathery green coloring and seamwork.I like the boots. They're actually open heels, and Rachel is just wearing red stockings. When seen from behind, the black outlines form an X (X-men, natch), and they actually also function like a slingback. Hey, the outfit was gonna be really boring from behind - had to do something!
