Here's a possibility from a scene from X2: X-Men United where Mystique changes her appearance a few times in a row to mess with Wolverine. The first one is in the correct order, but I think flipping them around illustrates the trope a bit better.

I'm giving a weak support vote. I'd like it better if it wasn't so dark.

Way too dark, I can't tell what's going on in it.

[up] Agreed. Way too dark.

Plus from the image alone, I'd probably think it was standard Power Perversion Potential where a lover shapeshifts to another form for funsies (which I thought was the point of Shapeshifters Do It for a Change, but apparently that's about gender dynamics. Huh).

It would be great as an animation.

^^ I think it's a mixed result. It solves the lighting issue at the cost of quality.

I think it's far preferable to be able to see something than to have the best possible quality, if both aren't achievable at once, of course.

There is an alternative scene in X-Men: First Class that probably can combine both, as she changes appearance several times in front of Magneto. [1] could work as an animation of we do want to go that way. The fact that she's waiting for him in bed helps get down the "seduction" part.

We don't do animated images. Mystique is an obvious choice, but I'd hate to use two images. We might have to though. I'm not in favor of 1 or 7. Even the brightened one is just too poor in quality.

Could one of the frames from the animated transformation do the trick?

Would this be an acceptable compromise for the X-Men pic?

What about from First Class, have her in the bed mid-shapeshift? Would it be clear enough? I mean, she's in a seductive pose there.

I'm still against the Mystique images because I feel like it'll lead to misuse; they mostly just look like she's shapeshifting for Power Perversion Potential, which isn't the trope.

I guess with Mystique, her natural form is already attractive. I don't like the OP or any variant of it just because I don't think it makes a good image. Something from 11 may be okay, but it will need some work to fit right.

The clock is way past due on this one and there's no consensus on anything. Locking up.
