Round 2, Match 23 — Charon (Fortnite) vs. Kurt Wagner/Nightcrawler (X-Men)
Charon propaganda:
The crown shape is spiky and sunburst-like, which makes his head silhouette unforgettable at distance, and the hood frames it so the focal point stays locked on the face. The sash/strap across his waist is studded with gold discs like a bandolier of fare, and there are coins worked into his bracers and ornaments so “payment” becomes part of his armour. it’s a neat way of nodding to the Charon myth without turning him into a museum statue. even the big medallion on his chest reads like an oversized coin or seal.
Kurt propaganda:
N/A
The better design is...

I know its a bit late. I do apologize for being away from the blog but I did want to thank all the fans who created and participated in Nightcrawler Week!
As its been asked for in the Nightcrawler Discord, I will be leaving the Ao3 collection open for the time being in case anyone wants to catch up on older prompts and add to the collection.
Thank you all and hope to do this again next year!
Here is the day 6 pic for Danger Day. This one took some doing. It was too much for Daz and Iray to handle, so I had to export the whole thing to Unity, rebuild some of it and the lighting. So this is more like, realtime lighting then Iray's rendered lighting.
A very silly and probably unexpected choice for Day 7 of Nightcrawler Week, but I decided to do what Kurt's report card must have looked like his first year in Evo! My favorite is the P.E. teacher's comments. Kurt is performing Olympic level gymnastic and acrobatic feats, and all he gets is a "good."
Also, I have a headcanon that he butted heads with his semester 1 English teacher and ended up having to switch classes for semester 2, hence the big difference in grades, conduct, and comments in English.
I imagine he didn't get much formal schooling at home, if any, really, so his grades start out a bit low and then improve as time goes on. He's a smart guy, but fun takes precedence over learning for him (at least in Evo!).
Also, what does the E stand for in Kurt E. Wagner? I don't know, but Boom Boom wrote it on his book. I like to think he doesn't have a middle name (even though Bavarians are notorious for this, I hear), but the school paperwork asked for one, so he made one up and put Errol, and now all of his school documents have E listed as his middle initial.
It also cracks me up to no end that he, a German and a teleporter, was constantly late in Evo. I think his teleportation gave him too much confidence in how much time he had to get to school, so he stopped to get breakfast burgers on the way in and ended up being late.

For Day 4 of Nightcrawler Week, not as happy with this one, while not an original idea but an original piece, it was all I could come up with. What if Nightcrawler had stayed in New York as Spinnerman.
