Chris Fenoglio, artist who worked on the Lower Decks ongoing comic book series, recreated the iconic pin-up of X-Men in swimsuits for the Lower Decks crew. Even some non-crew got featured (to fully recreate every detail of the original).

    Agreed … it was just a nostalgic thing. We analyzed those comic women like a science when I was in high school. We even studied among ourselves how to draw them. At first it was sexual (and it stayed that way with a lot of my friends) but a few of us became obsessed with trying to emulate the art style. Surprisingly it isn’t easy to draw proportionally perfect body parts without making a character look weird or badly draw. The one thing it did teach me was to appreciate human anatomy more.

      Oh it gets even worse when you’re trying for dynamic poses and angles.

      Glad to see love of comics sparked an attempt at getting artistic.
