Mr. J and Harl

Batman and all related characters are the property of DC Comics.

This is a drawing I did of Batman's archfoe, Joker, and his sometimes girlfriend Harley Quinn.

Joker is an amalgam of different versions of him. His attire and hair is based on pics of Heath Ledger from The Dark Knight, the black shirt came from some paintings in a book called Batman Masterpieces (which collected paintings from a trading card set that was done over ten years ago), the fingerless gloves come from The Batman's design of Joker, and his face is kinda modelled on Bruce Timm's version from Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker and Justice League. That said, like most versions of the Joker, he is supposed to be perma-clown.

While Joker still looks like Joker, Harley, however, I didn't stick to her classic look at all. True, the pigtails are still there (albeit longer than usual), but she isn't wearing her costume (or make-up and jester hood). The coat was inspired by Ben 10 villainess, Charmcaster. I don't know where the idea of sunglasses instead of a mask came from, though.

I hope you guys like it.

Done with mechincal pencils, pens, and colored pencils.
