I'm the goddamn Batman!
I'm pretty happy with how the sketch turned out but I still have a bit of tweaking I need to do before I ink it. I was having some real problems with the head for some reason so I originally tried drawing vague shapes and filling them in. You know, like real artists do.
Yeah, no I didn't draw that.
But that totally didn't work so I ended up sketching from the belly up to the shoulders because I knew how I wanted that proportion then the arms. The head was really hard for some reason until I just stopped trying to draw Bunk's head and put a Batman mask on it and decided to just draw a fat Batman head and then added Bunk's chin.
Now that I have this sketch done I will be marinating on it. I like to draw then put it away for a while so I can look at it later with fresh eyes. I find it's easier for me to tweak things that way. Then I can ink and colour. I can't decide if I want to do a classic black Batman t-shirt and some kind of weird purple/black colour for the cape or go with the black cape and some bright fun colour for the t-shirt. Hmmmm......
