Lineart | Art Round Up #2

Hey! Long time, no see! Here are a couple of artworks I've made since my last art round up. Most of these were made for my attempt at Inktober, a social media based drawing challenge that encourages you to make one ink drawing a day in order to hone your inking skills. While I failed spectacularly at completing Inktober, a couple of drawings that I'm really fond of came out of my "valiant" efforts to succeed.

Featured above are all original character designs. I didn't use a reference for anything so you'll have to excuse some of the awkward body proportions and nonsensical weaponry. I am particularly fond of the sassy #15 guy up there. I drew it while I was annoyed and I was able to convey that pretty well in his expression. That's what's so cool about art. :)

Which one is your favorite?

Gotham City Sirens | Art Round Up #1

Hello there! Just wanted to make my first art post. This round up features 3 watercolor pieces I sketched in my sketchbook. I didn't initially intend to paint them which is why they were drawn on dry media paper but the washes of paint were light enough to not ruin and bleed through the paper. Though it did warp the paper a little bit but that was to be expected.

The characters featured are Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, and Catwoman. They're typically featured as antagonists in various Batman comics as well as the aforementioned Gotham City Sirens. I wanted the pieces to be very messy since I think that the sirens would probably be a little roughed up after fighting but I did still want to capture their beauty as well. The individual pieces also feature the names of songs I think fit their personality or story. Just as a fun little addition.

All in all, I'm pretty pleased with the way these turned out. I hope you like them too! (:
