Description So, recently my friend dragged me into the Batman fandom.

And then now I can't stop drawing Robins.

A quick speedpaint (3 .5 hrs) to do muscle exercises (I need so much more practice!) and testing out photoshop. Might scrap later, not sure.

Also, just finished watching "Under the Red Hood" -...BAAAWWWWW.

Thank you to all for your comments, favs, and constructive criticisms!

That's okay! Don't worry about it. ;v;

And I apologize as well. I was waiting for the opportunity to post it on Tumblr from a computer and not my phone. ;v;

This is a lovely study for muscles-- I love the way you kept your mark-making fairly loose, but it still works together to create form. Very nice!

Thanks!! I love loose and rough textured painting styles and was trying to go more for that look! So glad could see it!

I love the look of loose painting, but lately I've been practicing detail-driven pieces, but loose gestural work will always be my favorite, haha. But yeah! Definitely! You did a wonderful job with this piece! I love the one with Jay and Tim too!

Thanks!! I was planning a Damian somewhere along the line as well, but I haven't gotten around to it. After that, I'd like to do Terry too (GO ALL THE BAT BOYS)!

Dick Grayson, in addition to being the first Robin, is the prettiest hero in the DC Universe. I'm so glad you drew him shirtless.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

blobble In reply to JayaLaw [2012-09-14 18:43:04 +0000 UTC]

Thank you!!

I completely agree- I found him attractive right from the first few days of Teen Titans.

I love practically every man in the Batman series; they all have dark hair and blue eyes of some variety .

Jason next!!

JayaLaw In reply to blobble [2012-09-14 21:33:46 +0000 UTC]

There are two Jasons actually; one is a cute strawberry-blond kid who had Dick's backstory and had dyed his hair black as Robin. Unfortunately, Crisis on Infinite Earths erased him and we ended up with punk Jason. RIP, pre-crisis cutie.

Yeah: here was Jason Todd pre-Crisis: [link]

I also like this story because it's Halloween and Jason makes the goofiest facial expressions: [link]

blobble In reply to JayaLaw [2012-09-16 00:10:30 +0000 UTC]

XD OMG he is so cute. He's such a worrisome little Robin!! He looked so innocent compared to the nitty grittiness of the Post Crisis Jason!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

JayaLaw In reply to blobble [2012-09-16 00:32:23 +0000 UTC]

That's because he IS innocent; unlike Dick who was more mentally adapted to the idea of crime-fighting, Jason is just a kid who wants to help his foster father. Of course, the Dark Knight Returns postulated that he did in combat; thanks, Frank Miller

Indeed there were, here are some highlights from the origin of the first version (Who, ironically, lasted about five years in the comics, compared to the new "improved" Jason, who didn't last 18 months)

Wow! I kind of love the idea of a blonde Robin!

The only thing is, that storyline sounds so much like Dick's, with the acrobat and all. I like my Robins varied.

JayaLaw In reply to blobble [2012-09-16 02:46:28 +0000 UTC]

The closest thing to blond-Jason with a varied past is Tim Drake on TNBA. Animated Tim, like Jason, was a juvie kid, but he had his adorable moments.

So Dick has shifted to a costume composed of sheer silk with the blue stripes... that should turn a few heads in Gotham!

Incidentally, given your (apparent) fondness for Sailor Moon AND cute guys, have you ever seen Saint Seiya?

blobble In reply to Icon-UK [2012-09-15 04:57:02 +0000 UTC]

ARE YOU KIDDING ME YES I HAVE : D.

The only thing is, I've never watched all the episodes because they only aired a few in the dubbed when I watched them. It's a shame though, I really wanted to watch more. I think I'll start picking it up again after I eat up all this Batman stuff I'm currently in LOL.

I'm a huge fan of Sailor Moon and Transformers . Those are the two fandoms I'm mostly in right now (even so I lurk like a creeper), and I do occasionally graze the Sherlock and Yu-Gi-Oh fandom.

But right now Robins are eating me up alive!

Thank you for sending those links!!! Goodness gracious, I think I should send a few of those second ones over to a friend of mine LOL.
