Looks good! Nice sense of motion (appropriate to a flying scene of course) in both the poses and use of color in the auras. Also a very nice job of copying the costume parts.
You should post them on the CoH Group too on dA. =)
*shameless plug ftw!* Though, I think this piece had already been submitted.
Come on in... We bite but you'll get used to it! 
seriously, the group here is very supportive of all the artists... And even if that wasn't the case, if the rest of your art is anywhere near as good as that one, you'll sure to be an instant hit!
I think the only problem you may have is posting enough arts to sate the hunger of the peeps here.
Welcome to the fun zone!! Fasten your seat belt and get ready to laugh yourself into insanity! 
And keep sharing your artz with us! They look fantastic!!

OOh yes! One of my faves too. Was wondering if you were still around, and drawing!
And yes, I think I tossed it into the Adversaries group or whatever it's called. Feel free to submit the original, and we can pull my copy, no?
"City of Heroes. April 27, 2004 - August 31, 2012. Obliterated not with a weapon of mass destruction, not by an all-powerful supervillain... but by a cold-hearted and cowardly corporate suck-up."
I submitted the original mere hours after the group came online!
Then yours must be the only copy.
And yes, now that I'm thinking straight (getting old sucks!) it was the B McKinney piece I put up, not yours. I DID remember seeing it in the gallery tho'.

What's with the Mender thing? Heh... great artwork mind you but since you said you love 'em, I figured I'd ask you. I see people making Mender outfits/characters all the time but the allure of them evades me. Is there some rich and inspired Mender lore that I haven't come across yet?

Well, in my case it's that I have a thing for both steampunk and time travel...
Fair enough. I just see a "lot" of it from various people and figured you had some insight. I agree that they have steampunk and time travel in spades.
I personally look to Nemesis for all my steampunk needs
Fabulous job... The characters, the background, the frame... It all works great!
As for the Menders, not into them myself but I think often the less there is known about a group the more attractive it can be since you have that much more freedom to make your own histories and stories.

Well you can learn a good amount of the Menders by exploring the content there but yeah, it's very flexible. I like the canon for the Menders, and Midnight Club, too, because they're open-ended and involve storyarcs that allow your characters to become members of those factions.

Actually I have a pretty good idea of how it feels... I went through the same thing like few months prior to your OP.|

What if people don't like it... what if they do like it? What if they ignore it altogether (things have picked up remarkably in recent months but for a while I could almost hear crickets chirping when I would post something and days went by with no one saying anything but yet I knew "they" were looking cuz the view counter was going up)... and I don't really even want my art to get "out there" anyway an... an... oh crap I pushed submit.
Thankfully people around here for the most part have been very encouraging and receptive to my work (something many people I know in RL most decidedly have not been) they tell me when I'm do something well (VexXxa's great at that
) but also give me the feedback and critique any artist needs to get better over time... and the occasional kick in the pants.It's a pretty good bunch... (I'm sure you've seen that in the past month or two) and I think you'll be glad you pushed submit in the long run.
Oh and since I somehow missed this thread before and didn't say it... Welcome.
All right, er, hi. I confess I'm a little nervous about starting an art thread, but sometime a month or more ago I posted in the City Scoop art submissions thread and was told I probably should... anyway, I haven't done a lot of CoX art as of yet, but I am hoping to get on drawing some more, since I've got so many new alts these days. This is the one I submitted to the City Scoop, and one of my favorite things I've ever drawn, regardless of CoX content:
