THE DARK KNIGHT SKETCHES PART TWO

Here's the rest of the photos i have from the sketches i did at Liffey Valley's VUE Cinema.
























Angry Batman. I like the bits of drybrush in this one.

























Someone asked for the scene in the movie where Bats landed on the van smashing the windshield. Quite like this one. Smashy-smashy.

























Another variation on the 'Why So Serious' Joker from the last post.
























Two-Face.

























A swooping Batman.
























Another swooping Batman. I prefer the one above.


Batman hiding from the light. I'm quite fond of this one too.


























Another Joker.

























Not sure where this idea came from. Just popped into my head. I like it. I think i'm finally becoming more comfortable with my sketches. Between the last weekend, the sketches at Asylum, and the sketches at the 2D Festival, i did more good sketches than bad. About bloody time.

That's some good drybrush.

I like angry Batman the best, it would make a great poster.

I like the last one. Reminds me of young Bruce's pose on one of the covers to Batman: Year One.

Really good.
