Batman Again!!

Here's my overachieving second submission for the studio sketchblog.

If i had it to do over again i would do the composition much more dynamically, and put it together a little differently. oh well, live n learn. i'm still having fun playing with watercolors! these are from a cake set that i got..jeez...like 10-15 years ago? i just bought myself some fancy tubes of watercolor so i can practice with those like a "real artist"



because i know someone will ask, the layout is:

                    Scarecrow | Joker
                  Penguin | Mr Freeze
Poison Ivy | Killer Croc | Bane | Harley Quinn
Catwoman | Riddler | Clayface | Two Face

Batman!

My submission for the studio sketchblog (Batman theme, obviously).
i was definitely going for a simpler, more cartoony i guess style for him, but looking at it this morning it kinda looks like lego batman *shrug* unintentional. this is kind of a painted collage. the background is watercolor, and everything else is cut out from paper i painted with acrylic, all layered. the scan made it much darker than it actually is, but i think that makes it way better.



i'm hoping to do another submission before monday. here's to a busy weekend!
