SuperBatober 20 - BLUFF

Are we really already at Day 20 of these now? Wow. The next third of the month is going to fly by!

Managed to snap a couple of extra process pics of this one. Hope that you've been enjoying all of these. Folks keep asking and yes, these will all be for sale next month. A few of them only on here, although I'm not sure w...

SuperBatober 19 - PONYTAIL

This was a fun one. Thought I'd do a quick homage to this scene from "What's Opera, Doc" where Bugs is riding down a hill as Brunhilda on a comically large, white horse. But, y'know, make it Comet and Kara instead. :)

Here's the drawing ...

SuperBatober 18 -SCRAPE

Happy Monday!

First time I've drawn Natasha Irons. Sure it won't be the last. :)

These outfits are based on these new Dan Mora designed ones, which I love so much. Super jackets and hoodies for everyone!

SuperBatober 17 - SALTY

Apologies for a second Harley/Ivy one. Just felt like this idea worked better with them (plus I love drawing Harley). Maybe I should start calling this month SuperBatHarlIvytober?

Anyhoo, hope everyone is having a much less frustrating weekend than Pamela is!

SuperBatober 16 - FOWL

Here I was just grumbling about too many animal prompts this year and then I go ahead and draw a bunch of penguins. Haha.

I also thought it'd be nice to include my initial (very) rough composition for this one. Originally I had the viewpoint reversed, with Babs swinging in to the foreground and ol' Cobblepot real tiny i...

Phone Wallpapers - WAVE 6

Hi all!

Thought it was about time for a new wave of phone wallpapers. Also, my drawing hand needed a rest and this felt like a good repose. :)

Tried to have fun with a couple of these but understand those word bubble ones might not work for everyone so created some alternative ones bundled with this latest batch.<...

SuperBatober 15 - ARMADILLO

Somewhere out there is an Atom fan who's favorite animal is an armadillo and is hopefully enjoying these Batgirl/Supergirl pieces. This one is for them.

Seriously though...what is it with all the animal prompts this year, Inktober? Bat, Nest, Eagle, Crab, Dog is coming up...

All kidding aside, th...

SuperBatober 14 - EMPTY

Just a little bit further, Kara! We're almost halfway there.

SuperBatober 13 - KIND

Sometimes I think all Batsy really needs is a nice hug every so often (and pretty sure Kara would agree with me).

Rushed this one a bit, but I'm tired. It's not easy taking time out for these everyday. I could use a hug too. Haha.

SuperBatober 12 - FORGET

Hopefully Babs is okay but more likely she just got caught up in a good book.

You can see in my initial rough I originally had Batgirl hanging out on that far gargoyle, but my wife (the only other eye for these) thought it kind of dumbed down the idea. Not one to argue (because she's usually right), I took Bats out of t...

SuperBatober 11 - EAGLE

Wasn't expecting Peacemaker to show up in one of these but here we are.

Happy Monday, everyone! Gonna be a busy week for me. Still, hoping to post something besides SuperBatobers on here sometime this week. Will see what I can do!

SuperBatober 10 - CRABBY

Don't mess with Kara when she's in her Red Lantern outfit! Decided to leave off the mask since it was distracting from her sour expression.

And here's another past related comic, drawn back when that Red Lantern story arc first started.

SuperBatober 09 - NEST

Thought this would be a nice one for a Saturday afternoon. :)

Speaking of books, It's been awhile since I've delved into what I've had sitting on my nightstand. My sister and niece pressured me into reading this 2022-10-08 19:30:12 +0000 UTC View Post

SuperBatober 08 - MATCH

A week into these things with only one costume change from Kara!* Thought I'd fix that.

Originally was going to put her in the same outfit as Babs, but it made more sense that Kara would put her own spin on things. I'm actually pleased as punch with how that super bat-emblem came out.

Anyhoo, this piece p...

SuperBatober 07 - TRIP

Ended up spending a little more time on this one than I should have, but it was fun! Probably my favorite of this current batch so far. Managed to snap a few extra process pics this time too. :)

Hope you guys are enjoying these so far!

SuperBatober 06 - BOUQUET

A nice little sweet one today. :)

I keep forgetting to snap pics of the inks before diving into watercoloring these. Sorry about that! I'll try to do better. Totally meant to keep one of Harley's sleeves red too. That's the price I pay for keeping these traditional I guess! Been nice stepping away from the Cintiq the pa...

SuperBatober 05 - FLAME

Almost had Babs simply fighting Firefly, but this was funnier to me. I picture this scenario maybe in the middle of that undrawn fictional fight. If I was Firefly, I'd get the heck out of Batgirls path quick! 🔥

Anyhoo, I'm still not over that whole ordeal. Maybe one day we'll get a Batgirl film. Sigh.

SuperBatober 04 - SCALLOP

Did I use the scallop prompt as an excuse to draw Babs and Kara as mermaids? Yes. Yes I did.

Happy Monday, everyone!

SuperBatober 03 - BAT

Gotta give Streaky some time in the spotlight! This drawing is sort of a prequel to this past Batgirl Supergirl comic:

Also a quick bit of news related to your payments. Patreon finally implemented a subscription model where p...

SuperBatober 02 - SCURRY

"Outa here, bats! I've a criminal to catch!"

Forgot to snap a pic of just the inks before starting paints, but it offered a chance to show a slightly different approach to doing these. I used to block in all my blacks before painting and, only now--over a hundred watercolors in--am I realizing how inefficient that was. ...

SuperBatober 01 - GARGOYLE

Here we go!
