Description

Here's the second of the Big 3 from Justice League Big 7 Redesign deviation:


Notes: I actually started this sketch series with this piece of Batman. Been itching to do a rendition of Him and Supes lately and I probably had the most fun doing this out of all 7. Another personal favorite character of mine; I particularly liked the newer dynamic between Batman and Robin ever since Grayson became Nightwing - the tragedy of Jason's death and resurrection is simply one of my favorite Batman stories.

Design-wise I was admittedly drawing inspiration from Metal Gear designs by Yoji Shinkawa (one of the artists that I idolize) so some of the design elements may look more manga-ish than western. What I love about designing Batman though, is that while he has a distinct overall look with elements that shouldn't be changed like the cowl, cape and bat insignia, he is known for always being prepared and bringing equipment to suite whatever situation he's going up against. It would follow then (and I believe that this is canon) that he would have several variations of Bat suits for every occasion. The mesh areas are supposed to be layered Kevlar and I added some light armor around the arms and legs along with leg holsters for the grappling hook gun that I think is usually on the back of his belt.


Will do a render pass on these sketches when time allows and the mood hits me. In the meantime, hope you all like. :)
