Love her costume. The pink detailing on the arm is a top masked right?

Welcome back. You are now not allowed to go away anymore. Carry on. 😉

Yeah, not even. The cord-tie on the right side looks too far in the centre compared to the left. Plus, more of the top part of it should be hidden behind the neck at that angle.

Bio:
In 2032, the technology-based company PresCorp discovered an amazing thing. By stimulating and manipulating the right genes, they could give a normal person amazing super powers temporarily. The effects lasted for about a week.
To collect as much on this breakthrough as they could, PresCorp created a daughter company called Venture, Inc. Venture offered the process to those who would pay for it (a hefty sum), and then kept them on a compound on an otherwise deserted island. They would create adventures in which these people could use their powers. It was exclusively for the sake of entertainment and profit, letting the rich and influential people of the country live out the fantasy of being a superhero for a short time. Lengthy background checks were performed to ensure that none of the customers would use their powers for evil, as well as a cancellor gate, which would void all powers when passed through.
There was a public outcry scolding Venture for making the experience so expensive and thus only for the wealthy, but no legal action could be carried out.
But then the demons arrived.
To call them demons is probably a misnomer. They were really just beings from another dimension. They had found a way to cross to our world, and when they saw that we were physically inferior, the invasion began. It soon became clear that the world’s existing heroes were not enough. Therefore, the US military declared martial law over Venture, Inc.
The “hero surgery,” as it was known, suddenly became available to anyone for free, as long as they were willing to volunteer to help battle the armies of beasts. And thus, the Citizens’ League of Heroes was formed. Many different powers were offered, and all were given to these everyday working people. Thousands applied and most were accepted. They were each given a crash course on how to control and use their newfound powers, and then they were sent to the fray. They were divided into teams of ten, each being led by a pre-existing superhero. makeshift hospitals were set up near the battle lines so that the week long powers could be continued as long as was necessary. They fought until the menace was destroyed. Many died in the battles. The rest returned to their normal, mundane lives, but with the memory of being and doing something extraordinary.
Angela was the adopted daughter of superhero Megavolt. She was intrigued by his control over electricity, and therefore chose to wield the same power. Angela was killed by the Incubus.

Thanks, JR.

Can you expand on your comment on the hood? Not even?

Love how you’ve done his left glove and the right side of his jacket. Only problem I can really see is the hood, but that’s just down to the limitations of the item. Good job.

Thanks for the input, JR. I respectfully disagree (especially since Hardrock took me several hours to finish), but I always welcome constructive criticism.

That dude rocks….

I’ll show myself out.

Although, being serious for a moment, I’m not sure about the colour scheme you’ve got going there. The red and the gold don’t really work with the gold being the primary colour and the red being the secondary. I’m also not sure about those two colours against such a dull grey. Maybe a darker red, but not red and gold. Also, whilst his face looks awesome in the full body shot, the illusion is kinda ruined by the close up, where it looks like he’s just eating rock. But other than that, I really like the costume and I have nothing bad to say about Hardcore at all, awesome costuming and shading there dude.
