Thanks, Hector. No, I'm not a designer but I love fashion. I can't remember how I got into that fashion illustration class, but my classmates hated me.
Here's another little drawing I kept from that class:
I do not have any batman stuff, but here are some drawings I did a LONG time ago that I feel are worthy to share.
This is a drawing of my pet lizard, 'Gus (or Asparagus). She was a water dragon, and I thought it was a boy until she started laying eggs...so she became Gussica. Check out that ticket stub! $1.75 for a movie!! I am so old...
I wish I had kept more stuff, but who knows where they are now...recycled, maybe?
And Hector, hermano, you are a real artist! Your sharp eye and strong sense of color and design in most impressive. Bravisimo!!!
Your Glastron boat piece particularly struc a chord A) for its beautiful design, and B) because that was the company that fashioned the 1966 Bat-boat!
Darklord that's really a Spectacular piece..... here are a few pieces I've done I tend to do draw the Adam West batman more often....sorry for the size
Thanks for the nice words, guys! And yup, you read that correctly. This piece measures 4 Feet by 6 Feet.
It definitely posed a challenge to find working space, let me tell you. But I made the desicion early on to work that large because I really wanted to capture fine photo-real detail in the piece.
At one point, I had the masonite layed down on my living room floor, and I layed on it as I sketched.
My cat thought this was all quite amusing and would plop himself down on Batman's face or whatever, as I worked. I had to clean paw prints off of the work on more than one occasion.
The thing I probably learned the most from working on this piece is that a good ERASER is every bit as important as good pencils when drawing. It was my eraser that helped me "draw" all of those sharp satiny- leathery highlights on The Batman's cape, mask, gloves, trucks, and boots.
But c'mon guys. Let me see YOUR Bat-artwork!
Raydeen, don't be shy, bro. Post those two beautiful Batman-related sketches you showed me. I know everyone here will love 'em!
Let's make this a Batman Art party!

That's really great, Darklord, I like it a lot. I also can't believe that's just done with pencils, wow. And are you saying that this piece measures 6 by 4 feet?? I couldn't imagine drawing something so big!
Everything about it is perfect...from being anatomically dead on...to the scale, angles, perspective, proportion...and most of all...the shading...wow...I'm floored.
BEAUTIFUL!!!!
I also draw...not like you though...I also paint...but latley I have been toying with Illustrator...here are some samples of my work...I have a published magazine art cover for Laney College...the annual book just selected my cargo ship over other finalists...I was so happy...
I said it before and I'll say it agian. The rendring of this image is astounding. It looks like a painting, not pencils. I want Darklord to render one of my pencil drawings in this manner. I'll go so far as to mail him the original and get him to render over my pencils.
You sir have some serious skills. This is such a clean, classic looking Duo. You can hear the victim screaming as you look at the faces of B and R. It's museum worthy. I want my signed copy for my wall.
