Psylocke - Uncanny X-Force


Psylocke (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psylocke) decided murdering people was kind of fun (but not kids) and radically changed her outfit... To look exactly like her old one, except black and white.
Getting The Look
This is a re-colouring of Psylocke's original ninja look.

Re-Colour Week



This week I'll be posting character styles that are re-colourings of costumes that have already been featured on the blog. For example Uncanny X-Force Psylocke, and Dark Phoenix Jean Grey.

Rather than repeating myself, I'll simply link to the original post and specify the colour differences and any slight style changes. If there are any entirely new styles, I'll list how to obtain them, the way I would in a regular blog post.

Psylocke - Original X-Men


Psylocke (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psylocke) originally joined the X-Men in 1987 after a bunch of adventures in the Captain Britain comics as a spy and model. Her first costume was three shades of pink, had puffy sleeves and ribbons attached at the wrist... I guess in case she needed to garrotte someone and nothing else was handy.
Getting The Look
You don't need any extras to put this pink celebration together. There are only four style pieces, and only one of them requires any work to obtain.

Scarlet Witch - Uncanny Avengers


The Scarlet Witch (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scarlet_Witch) stopped being crazy and rejoined the Uncanny Avengers. And nothing says 'I'm not crazy anymore' like a new costume consisting of your old headpiece, a low cut leather coat dress and some boots.
Getting The Look
An easy look to put together, with only the headpiece requiring some effort to acquire. This costume uses the same crimson colouring as the Scarlet Witch's classic look, and as with that costume you will need to be a Legendary member or have access to Amazon Fury, Part 1 with a CR of 100.

Scarlet Witch


The Scarlet Witch (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scarlet_Witch) is best known as a mutant and the daughter of Magneto. Her powers are sometimes defined as the ability to manipulate probability to make improbable events happen, and sometimes as magic, depending on who is writing her that month. About to be ruined in the comics because of her starring role in Avengers: Age of Ultron.
Getting The Look
I tried quite a few times in the early days of DCUO to come up with a good Scarlet Witch, but could never get one I was happy with. Her headpiece is so distinctive that everything seemed like a poor substitute, until the release of Amazon Fury, Part 1 with it's range of Amazonian headpieces.

The Scarlet Witch has worn many versions of this costume over the years, with many slight variations. I've gone with a more modern interpretation of the look.
