(The finished Batman Returns piece!)
A bit of experimenting for me.
Thought I'd invest in some black card and try my hand out at a different approach to drawing.
Instead of using line I focused on shading tonal areas, I used no graphite pencil in this, only Prismacolors and European alternative Karisma colours.
I'm trying to speed up my output. Black backgrounds seem to help me a lot. Uses less of my pencils and this one was complete in about 5 hours.
I completely forgot how good Michael Keaton was as Batman and how awesome Tim Burton's representations were. After watching the 80's and 90's versions again, I had to do it some justice.
WHOA!!!....yes,I guess we all have to take a revisit to Burtons own Batman,you did the ultimate tribute to Tims vision of these classic characters...its an epic work!
