Description

Jessica let out two sharp, pained grunts as Valerie’s wicked hooks bashed her cheeks, the second louder than the first. She was able to hold her position through the first one, but the impact of the second coerced her backward, ever closer to the ropes…which is exactly where Valerie wanted her. Realizing the predicament she would soon find herself in as the Ripper showed no sign of letting up, Jessica bit down on her lower lip for focus, and resolved to find a way to break Valerie’s rush.

Valerie approached menacingly, with her right fist cocked back and ready to continue the assault. She expected Jessica to cover up again, but instead The Nova Striker advanced with a look of fierce determination, right into the path of Valerie’s fist. Seeing this, Valerie couldn’t help but furrow her brow a little as she grew suspicious of what Jessica might have up her sleeve. Changing her gameplan on the fly, Valerie pulled her right arm back with a feint before it could fully extend, tucking her elbow to guard that side while at the same time wheeling her left around for another hook.

This brief moment was precisely what Jessica was banking on, because while Valerie may well have been faster, she was also painfully aware from firsthand experience of how much Jessica could pack into a single punch if she hit clean. The fact that Valerie stubbornly decided to still attack with her left played right into Jessica’s hands, as it meant that she would be required to leave her body open on that side momentarily. The extra lead time she earned by tricking Valerie into switching up gave her just enough time to sink her left glove into the smaller woman’s ribcage, thudding into the exact same spot she aimed for at the end of the first round.

This is one of those pics I keep going back to.  Such great looking fighters--and such well done punches.  I can see that Jessica's really got good leverage on the blow--combined with those magnificent muscles, serious hurt!  You captured the moment of impact perfectly.  This makes me wonder how well I could withstand her punches--she's big, strong, and skilled--a beautiful combination that results in less-beautiful faces on other people at times.  Love this!

Thanks Selene

Funny thing is, and I'd bet you've likely noticed by now, but those muscles are even a little bit more defined now than they were back when this pic was first taken, so now she hits even harder than this

I've considered updating both Jessica and Valerie's bio renders (to reflect not only the changes in their physiques, but also the changes in my lighting setup) I might still do it

If you do an update, makwe sure that you have one of Jessica flexing, REALLY showing off her bicep

And an idea for a pic, since you like POV shots--a POV pic of Jessica--from the viewpoint of a gal she's dropped--pic like one of these:

I have a feeling that's the view a lot of people have of her

Great strategy from Jessica. She's really showing that solid body blows are worth several of Valerie's rapid strikes!!

Again, great work in showing the power that Jessica is unleashing here!!

As Valerie's two wicked hooks found their marks you could hear the grunting sounds of Jessica, as she was sent reeling backward near the ropes. Her back foot touching the bottom rope, as she soon realized the danger she was in, as Valerie continued pressing the fight.

Looking to further punish her, Valerie approached fearlessly with her right fist cocked. All her instincts expected Jessica to cover up again....

But that look in the eyes of Hawke told a different story. Jessica advanced with a look of fierce and fearless determination directly into the path of Valerie’s incoming right.

This course of action that Jessica had taken caused Valerie to grow suspicious of what Jessica had up her sleeve. In mid-motion, Valerie withdraw her right as to feint it before she fully released its wrath, she tucked it to guard her side, but also whipped her left around for another hook.

Her focus was unyielding, as she Jessica continued advancing even with Valerie's change up tactic. Jessica eyes were open seeing the chance to pay Valerie back. Valerie had fully committed herself to her left now, this gave Jessica the target and opening she needed.

Jessica left glove thudded hard against the body of Valerie, causing the body to quake from the impact of the hit, this forced Valerie to grunt loudly, as she took the full power of Jessica left to the body.

A counter punch might not be a wise choice for Valerie in this instance. Some defense would serve the blonde well at this point.

This looks like a fine opportunity to try a right uppercut for the Nova Striker.

WOW!!  As much as you're showing me doing this, I'm getting ideas now about how Deborah might just manage to land some serious blows to Rasashina's body, the main place Rasashina prefers not to take a lot of punishment, not because it really, really hurts her, but because she needs her body to not get heavily pummeled to keep her 'steam hammer jabs' from losing a lot of speed and easier to evade, and so her most dangerous weapon in those jabs being reduced in effectiveness.

Yep. that's exactly why Jessica chose to go downstairs here, she wants to chip away at Valerie's speed advantage
