Alan Davis! My hero! I think his Kurt is great, with very few exceptions. Not only is he a great artist, I think he wrote Kurt wonderfully too.
Yu's Kurt is pretty cool on his better days. The few times Kurt smiles nowadays it looks perfect! I like his hair and the sideburns too.
Adam Hughes did a great Elf on the WildCATS crossover a few years back.

I like Yu's elf, except why doesn't he draw his fangs?
Davis' was great until he worked on x-men. Then something about the elf didn't look right.
Hughes' is the absolute best. I'd be so happy if Hughes draws the LS.

Wow, looks like Im in the minority here, but I say Joe Mad... I think his look was perfect for the Elf! It just suited him to me... I dunno...

Hmmmm....yeah, I just looked at 107. He doesn't have his fangs does he? Cool glowy eyes though. I like how nowadays he's really dark but yet you can see his features, as opposed to when he always had those shadow triangles under his eyes. Excalibur's was really bright where you could see his face...but that was the overall look of the book. I always thought he was a little too Beast blue then.

Yep Amy,I think Yus Nighty is awesome when he puts time into it.Lately his art seems a bit rushed though.And I agree about the fangs.
Hey Oz,I liked Joes later version of Kurt when he changed his style and became the regular penciller for Uncanny.But I didnt like his first renditions-like in the Excalibur special he did or the Excalibur issues with the X-Men crossover.

Yeah Slar,I liked Alan Davis because he started showing Kurts facial features.Before that most artists covered his face with shadows like the black patches under his eyes-the "triangles" as you said.

Ditto SPATULA GAL!
I'm crazy about DAVIS', and PAUL SMITH's renditions. Really like ART ADAM's and CARLOS PACHECO's. Also a fan of the way BYRNE used to draw Kurt. But the more I look at that X-MEN/Wildcats team-up the more I think that ADAM HUGHES might just have the best interpretation of Nightcrawler that i've ever seen!
BAMF!

DOH! Forgot to mention JIM LEE'S Nightcrawler as one of my favorites also!
BAMF!
