The Spirit.
Haven’t drawn him in a while. Will Eisner’s work on this character is one of the biggest reasons why I began to love comics as a kid.
Damian Wayne
Here’s my fifth Batman commission: Damian Wayne, Batman.
I confess I, like many, wasn’t a big fan of Damian Wayne when I first encountered him in Grant Morrisson’s Batman. He was brash, snarky, and altogether annoying. However, over time he came to grow on me as I realized that he’s only a miniature version of his old man. He’s now one of my favourite new characters of the last decade.
This Batman costume was from an Andy Kubert design for a story based in a future when Bruce Wayne had died and his son succeeded him as Gotham’s protector. I frankly don’t like the design much but maybe it’ll grow on me as well.
Digital rain added in Photoshop.
Here’s my fourth Batman commission. Once again, it’s a character I know much about: Brane Taylor, the Batman from a now defunct 31st century.
I tried to change his design a bit incorporating armor-like features to his costume.
This is the 3rd of my Batman commissions for @TravisEllisor : Batsman.
Truthfully, I don’t know much about him save for the fav that his power is to create bats from his costume. As a result, I tried to be creative with my depiction of the guy.
I have never drawn Terry McGinnis’ Batman before but I’ve always liked the design of the character so it was fun trying to get a hold of the character. I really like the hypothetical future world that they’ve created around the character I tried to translate the feeling of that world into this image.
Here’s my first of many Batman-related commissions for @TravisEllisor .
I was initially ambivalent-to-negative about the new armored Batman but I’ve got to admit that it’s starting to grow on me. At least, I can see why the costume redesign is necessary and may actually be a good thing.
I still don’t like the Nolanverse Bat-costume, though.
Felt like drawing someone in a square today. Thanks to @ihearthorchata for the suggestion.
Just wanted to draw the Phantom today for some reason.
I’ve been feeling kind of weird about drawing fanart lately where I suddenly feel like it’s a pretty pointless endeavour. However, it seems like I still feel the need to draw them, apparently. Maybe I’ll grow out of the need to do that too someday.
It’s been a while. Here’s a Batman.
I like drawing the Shadow.
I was thinking as I was waking up about Batman. I do that quite a lot.
I was thinking about the fact that there is a sizeable contingent out there who think that he does what he does out of revenge. I am one of those who believe that his motivations should always be out of a sense of duty, to make sure that no other person has to go through what he has gone through.
Now, it would be perfectly understandable that a child seeing his mother and father murdered in front of him would be conducting a revenge-driven crusade. I found myself wondering why I don’t think that’s the case. Why would he not be filled with an obsessive desire for revenge? He’s certainly driven. What caused the change within him to seek revenge from the one who has wronged him to a desire to help others?
Is there a story that details this very important and crucial metamorphosis?
