Jennifer Walters, the meek and mousy lawyer cousin of Bruce Banner, was the daughter of Sheriff Morris Walters. Agents of Nicholas Trask, a crime boss who had crossed paths with her father, shot and seriously wounded her on a day when her cousin was in town. Bruce gave her a blood transfusion, as no other donors of her blood type were available; the radioactive blood mutated Jennifer as it had her cousin, transforming her into the She-Hulk. Although Jennifer was at first savage while in her form as She-Hulk, she eventually gained the same intelligence she had as the normal Jennifer Walters. She quickly came to appreciate the confidence and assertiveness that had come with being She-Hulk. For a long time, she felt more comfortable in her form as She-Hulk than in her "normal" form as Jennifer. But she has gradually grown comfortable in both forms, and realized that she has much to offer the world in both her forms. After a brief solo career, she joined the Avengers and temporarily replaced the Thing in the Fantastic Four. - marvel.com

since we already have Gamora do we really need a She-Hulk in the MCU?

She's pretty, but way too thin for She Hulk.

Gorgeous woman, but sadly not a very good paint job. :/

Whaaaaa I love She-Hulk! This lady, April is amazing. Only thing I would critique is how dark the muscle accents are. Go back in there with some green and thin those lines out so they are more supportive then distracting. But over all this is beautiful.

She has the right face and body for this character. She looks really good!



I've seen other cosplayers do the dark muscle thing too though. I think there is a way of doing muscle definition without going too heavily contrasted. Darker green highlights vs black, maybe layer the paints differently? I haven't tried it myself.

@Mercwitham0uth it pains me to say this and I hate you for it; from a beauty standpoint, the cosplay is better looking...but from a She Hull look...Chyna looks better

Interesting cull of comments on this thread if you don't happen to agree with the author that the paint job looks good.

If you don't want people's honest opinions on stuff - don't bother writing the article in the first place.

The paint job looks terrible. I've seen kids turn up on my doorstep at Halloween that have done better bodypaint than that.

There - I don't agree with you. Deal with it.

Nail really need to pull his head in a bit. A total hypocrite.
He posts these articles, under the guise of admiration for the cosplay, when it's REALLY about posting pics of hot chicks. He is without doubt, the biggest objectifier of women on this site. I'm pretty sure guys participate in cosplay too.
Deleting posts from users that are more up front about their objectification doesn't make you a better man Nail. Pathetic.

Not impressed at all; pretty bad paint job and photography work was awful. Since when does She-Hulk have a nose ring?
