Jaqai Mickelsen - thbtbhtbht


I must have redrawn the left side of the pose a billion times. Time got in the way (it was not a quiet weekend) so I know the reality is I won't be able to finish pre-new assignment. I went in hell bent on not looking at any reference because I didn't want to be influenced by someone else's batman. That was obviously a great tactic because I managed to draw Batman in an unfinished Spiderman pose.

Woo!

I love the rawness of the unfinished sketch. (And I totally understand not being able to finish -- lots of weeks get away from me).

His expression is spot on too. Classic Batman.

No reference? You are a brave man. I totally had to Google the cowl.

I've said it before but I LOVE seeing the process of people's art. A half drawn picture is FASCINATING to me. Don't beat yourself up, it's GREAT. Some days you jump the weekend, some days the weekend jumps you.
