Doctor Who, Series Nine

Image
"Doctor Who" I thought this would be a good opportunity to post one of my Doctor Who artworks again. I posted it before, here . Series nine of Doctor Who premieres tonight. It will be airing on one of the BBC channels in the UK, and on BBC America. It will be the second series, or season, to feature Peter Capaldi as the Doctor. It will also be Jenna Coleman's third series, second full one, and last series since it's been reported that she's leaving the show after series nine. I'll miss her. I'm looking forward to the premiere and I think it will be interesting to see what Capaldi's second series will be like.

Joker entering the Art Gallery - Batman (1989, T. Burton)

Image
I decided to make this Joker Week on my art blog. However, I don't have a Joker artwork for today. I do have one that I had in mind, but it would take some work to get it out to post it. So, maybe another time. Until then, there, above, is a video of part of the museum scene in Batman (1989).

Heath Ledger As The Joker

Image
"Heath Ledger as the Joker" Here's another one of my drawings of Heath Ledger as the Joker, from some years ago. I started by drawing and inking the drawing on paper. I colored some parts with Sharpies. Then I digitally colored the rest of the Joker, and put on a textured background.

Joker Card

Image
"Joker Card" Here's a Joker drawing I did some years ago, based on Heath Ledger's Joker. I originally drew it on paper, and I thought it would be cool to make it look like a playing card in my paint shop program. The Dark Knight was a great movie. I'm looking forward to seeing what the new Batman film mythology will be like with Ben Affleck's Batman and Jared Leto's Joker. While I do have favorites, I wouldn't say that any one actor is a better Batman or Joker. They're all great in their own ways. So, I think that Heath Ledger will always have been a  brilliant Joker.

The Shadow

Image
"The Shadow" Here's a picture of The Shadow I drew back in 2007. I've been fascinated with this character since the movie with Alec Baldwin in the '90s. The Shadow is an old pulp fiction (not the movie but the genre) character. His catchphrase is, "who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men...the Shadow knows." Dynamite Entertainment, a comic book publisher, has published The Shadow comics in recent years. The Shadow is an awesome character!

Batman Facebook Profile Picture

Image
"Batman Facebook Profile Picture" Facebook at least used to have default profile pictures for profile pages, and they were silhouettes on, I think blue backgrounds. That's what inspired me to draw this (above). I thought it would be funny and cool to do one with Batman.

Han Solo

Image
"Han Solo" This is Han Solo as he appears in Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens. My sister bought me an issue of Star Wars Insider awhile back, and having looked through it, I decided to sketch this. Force Friday was last week, which was cool. The movie is coming in December. I'm a big Star Wars fan and the new movie looks like it's going to be cool. It's to see that Han, Chewie, Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker, and more characters from the original trilogy will be back.
