Description
I have become a huge fan of Alex Ross' work lately and I absolutely loved his Justice covers! When I came across this unused cover, I just had to color my boy Robin!
What seemed like a simple thing to do, this actually took a few hours to get done as I'm a color and detail nut. I even hi-res'd the old scan photo.
*All credit goes to the original sketch artist/graphic novelist, Alex Ross (His work is godlike!)

CnC welcome on my coloring! ^_^
Please feel free to comment! If I get much appreciation, I may just continue coloring the rest of the cast

Awesome! Huge Ross fan here too, did you took his unused Robin redesign as a reference for the colors? it looks a lot like that.

My favorite Ross Robin is still his Kingdom Come Red Robin costume, with no greens at all; of course he went in the oppossite direction with that other, more recent redesign; I guess he made it for the time when they were going to introduce Damian Wayne as the new Robin; several redesigns seem to have come from the same period: his unused Atom, Martian Manhunter and Grayson-Batman.

Yea probably at the time. I would've liked to have seen more Grayson-Batman by Ross. That'd be cool. For the unused Atom, you talking about the Atom Smasher one?

The Grayson-Batman is awesome, I really like the ideas behind it of a very Neal Adams-esque athletic Batman using Nightwing colors; I'm planning on using it in some fancomics I'm writing.
About the Atom, no, I'm talking about a design he did for the size-changing Atom, I guess it was designed when they were to introduce Ryan Choi as the new Atom; so far, only place I've seen it is in Ross' Rough Justice book, I don't think the image is online at all; I don't have a scanner at hand, but I could try and take a photo of it, if you want to see it.
