Description
My 3rd attempt at doing a portrait, probably my best one so far, HOWEVER i had to scan it in 2 pieces and despite my best efforts some traces of a scan line still remains..So there he is, the Joker from the Dark Knight batman film.
I thought Heath Ledger's performance in that was superb and perfectly captured the Joker's personality. RIP Heath Ledger.
Any critique/comments would be grealy appreciated

Congratulations, it's absolutely great.

This is pretty neat! What did you use to draw it with? And don't worry about the line. ;3 If I hadn't read that it was there, I really wouldn't noticed it. :3

I miss a little bit the "craziness" in his eyes. He looks too "serious" to me.

I love this, but the part i love the most is the gloves, they way you drew it made it look like it was actual leather. Awsome job!

DeVmarine In reply to Rainbowbuttmonk3h [2010-10-29 20:32:23 +0000 UTC]

thanks I personally think the joker was portrayed with alot of wrinkles in the dark knight, but then again my reference photo was actually a digital portrait of the joker instead of an actual photo.

DeVmarine In reply to artlearner [2010-10-29 19:25:58 +0000 UTC]
I should have probably blended the suit a little bit, idk what it would do to the texture though. The face i found difficult to blend with a tissue as it was altering the lighting that i wanted it to have.
