Joker

Posted Aug 20, 2008, 4:48:57 PM UTC

Hi Peoples!! This is a bit of a Tutorial I suppose or a WIP.

I know pretty much everyone and their Mother is doing Joker drawings these days but I thought it would be nice to do a digital speed painting that was a little more cartoony, slightly exaggerated in the face and all around simplified and painterly. Like a comic book version of the movie but not trying to make it look exactly like Heath Leger (Who did an AMAZING job in this movie, BTW!). Plus, I hadn't done a completely digital painting in a while.

My friend Stacy's Mom actually said ,"I'm gonna cry, it's so good!" when she saw this piece. She welled up too. I think that about says it all!

Enjoy the process! Hope you like this piece.

approx. 2.5 hours in PS CS3

    Wow, I wish I could actually make decent speed paintings! This is very nice I love watching another artist's progress during a piece :3 It's always fun to see how others work.
    Lovely job on this.
