I am terrible at making cards, really,really terrible.. not the actually making so much as the remembering to make and then remembering to send. It is a rare thing indeed to get a homemade card from me lol
However, My brother is a huge Batman fan, so I just had to make a card for him.
I previous years I have done silhouettes of the batman character, but this time i wanted to try a different character and more of a realistic sketch.
I started out with sketching the general shapes.
and then blocked in the darkest areas..
Working on one area at a time...
I wasn't sure at all that I ha captured the features well, I wasn't well and was sketching this in bed. It looked more like Einstein than the Joker lol
I knew I wanted to work in graphite, but I also wanted a splash of colour. Using Crayola Slick Stix I added the bright red scar across the mouth.
Here it is taken in better light, it is also laid on my ipad cover. I think it would look cool in a red frame.
