BATWOMAN

Just saw that Dark Knight Rises poster again, the one with the bat shape made in the open space around all the buildings. It's a friggin' genius idea that I can't believe nobody's done sooner.
So yeah, I figured I'd do a sketch where somebody's cape makes a bat symbol shape-- and it's been a while since I've drawn Batwoman so...

Yeah, my drawings are super deep. :P

ACME Free Comic Book Day: print process

Here are the thumbnail sketches for the print that I mentioned last week for FCBD at Acme Comics.

Next, we have the really rough pencils.

the finished inks...

which would normally be where I'd call it quits, but it was decided early on to add a splash of color on this piece so...
Here are my first few stabs at colors, done with prismacolor markers, as I tried to figure out which bits to color red without it all bleeding together.

For the finished piece be sure to come on out to Acme Comics and pick yourself up a copy of the print!
Have a great weekend, folks.

If you know you will be attending Acme's FCBD and would like a sketch please drop me a line, my email address in my profile.  


Additionally, prints of the image above will be for sale at the store on FCBD.

Gal Friday: Batwoman

I was going for a cool shape with this sketch... but I think the new Batwoman looks a bit more like a hood ornament here than anything.
Ah well. Have a great weekend, folks. Stay outta trouble.

Be sure to check back on Monday when I start posting sketches from Hurley Con!
