This next artcard that I’m spotlighting is of the Caped Crusader, Batman. Everyone knows Batman. For this artcard, I wanted to do an homage to the logo for Bruce Timm’s Batman: The Animated Series, yet rendered in my own style. Batman is pretty hardcore, so I wanted to give him stubble to show that sometimes he spends a lot of hours on the job. At the same time, he’s also Bruce Wayne underneath that cowl, so there needs to be an element of “handsomeness” to the face. Bruce Wayne is supposed to be a charming millionaire playboy. When I started reading Batman comics in the early 90′s, one of my favorites things about many of them, was how they depicted the night sky using colors other than black. My favorite was this teal green sort of color. That was where I pulled the inspiration from when it came to coloring the night sky for this piece.
