Here's a fun illustration I took on recently! Even tho I don't read the new BATWOMAN comics (or any current comics, really), I love the look and costume design of this bold DC Comics crime-fighter! I'm also a sucker for red-and-black used together in any way (on costumes, clothing, vehicles, design), so I just had to see if I could come up with a unique look for this unique character…Click each image below to enlarge!
Below: This photo really caught my eye! That black
and red (with no competition from any other
colors) is just wonderful! This is cosplayer
Cami Roebuck as Batwoman!

Below: My original quick pencil sketch, trying to
capture the exactly pose and composition I
envisioned for this illustration...
Below: A more refined pencil sketch, working with
symmetry and very graphic design elements...

Below, Working with the image in black and white, to
gauge value and contrast, before adding actual color...
Below: Playing with adding the single color (on many b/w
copies of the art), but how much? Where? Just
the figure? The background? Both?
Below: Still playing with the color, and finally
zeroing in on its final placement!
