Mattchew's Fanart Thread...

Robin update. Really, just shading... (had to include ivy's arm, becasue robins face looks f'd up without it)

Again... colors are REALLY bright... they'll be desaturated in the end.

they're there already... disappeared when i shrunk it. the final will have them.

 

[Le Diable Blanc]

Aww his face is so cute ^^

 

[flavio_lebeau]

its the ***** of the process... I do it on paper and than recreate it PAINSTAKINGLY with the lasso toll in PS... it helps that I'm semi-obsessive compulsive and that I NEEEEED it look by that clean looking.

Oh, I see. I don't think I'll ever have the patience to do this

By the way, I think I like it more saturated than desaturated. I guess it fits wonderfully.

Bat's update:

Added some chains... only other change is the shading...

His right side (@ the leg and the neck) are covered by catwoman, so that's why it may look a bit odd.

Let me know what you think!

Is that all pen tool?

 

[Le Diable Blanc]

W-O-W! LOVE the shading on the gloves and the handcuffs. His facial expression is priceless. Oh and that shade of blue is really great.

Thanks... He took me longer than I had guessed, but I'm happy with the result, especially when you add it the the group.

no pen tool at all.

 

[JP]

no pen tool at all.

What are you using?

I must no your secrets, lol!

 

[Mattchew]

how i do it is I first sketch, then scan. then i use the lasso tool to very slowly recreate the line work... i could use a pen tool but I'm anal, and I want these to be very clean, because I print decent size versions of these when I'm done.

when im done with that, I have a layer in photo shop of just the black, and everything transparent. then I do color layers behind it.

I generally split up each character into their own group... that's why its easy for me to just post this solo images ive been posting.

 

[Neto Magnus]

Thanks! What I was going for!

----------------

Update on Harley... No real changes, other than shading an a bit or texture on her suit...

Thoughts?
​

Last post.. then bed.

Catwoman update...

Added another arm. Added patches to her suit, and stitches. Also did shading... I did some soft shading (like on ivy) but added hard highlights and shadows to try to convey a more reflective surface to the material that makes up her costume...

​

As always, let me know what you think!

you should just have Harley on top of Catwoman.t:

Both Lasso and Pen tool take an equal amount of forever, lol. I don't think I've heard of someone using Lasso, so cool beans.

naughty!

FINAL!

This is just a for fun pic I did, since I love the female Batman villains. The idea being it's Harley's house and she's decorated in her favorite colors...

​

Let me know what you think!

 

[JP]

Loves it.

You're awesome.

Am I a fan?

 

[keith_v]

FINAL!

Desaturated some of the colors of the characters. Added the background... The idea being it's Harley's house and she's decorated in her favorite colors...

Let me know what you think!

Very nice. It's weird when you compare it to the rough version. Certainly come a long way.

I love the muted tones, and that backround is strangely awesome. Easily one of your best, if not the best, piece you've posted yet!

 

[Le Diable Blanc]

Awesome Matt, great job again. And there's a frame with a spade in the background which is great
