Batman Rogues Gallery

Last December I announce in my official Facebook page that I'll be drawing a set of five characters based on Batman's rogues gallery. I asked around for suggestions and the following five classic characters came up. Each was painted using Copic Markers and Gouache on 12x18 Watercolor paper and then digitally enhanced.

Enjoy!

The Joker. For good ol' Joe, I wanted to mix both the classic Joker and Heath Ledger's Dark knight Joker. Went well, I think :)
Bane. He is big, I know, but I wanted to make use of stuff other than his size to make him look threatening. 

Poison Ivy. I had so much fun with this one. It's nice and colorful and the lighting makes it so kid-friendly and-- WTF, is that a head?! #($*#)(*()#$

Scarecrow. The doctor is in! I based my design on the Batman TAS Scarecrow that had a noose on his neck. In my opinion, that's the creepiest version of the Scarecrow.

Two-Face. I did this while still learning how to use gouache properly. Dent did something, obviously, but the liability is not there because of the coin. And the 'other' person just loves it.
