Description I drew this for a 24 hour contest. Took me 14 hours with corrections. I'm happy I took the time to work on the drawing because I turned out 4 other versions of this picture before I decided on this one. Thank goodness for Wacom, and Photoshop 7. With it you can work at the seed of thought. No rulers, paper size restrictions, erasers, pencil sharpening, or inking to worry about.


The topic was crime. I was stumped at first, but then I got this image of Catwoman stealing went with it.

I've always wanted to try an Adam Hughes style. For a momment I didnt want it to look too much like his work, but when I started doing my own thing with her face I decided to change my mind. She looks much cuter now than in the first drafts.

Her Catsuit was open at first, but since she is upside down and in the middle of a crime why leave it open? Is it that hot?


This is D.C. comics Catwoman in the process of commetting a crime.

I usually stay away from D.C. characters, but I Batman!
He is such a cool character, and has the coolest villians.

I also love this new Catwoman design.

She has a pair on her.
Her googles, and ears are just so ...BIG!

That old purples costume with the hair just looked dumb to me. The Batman returns movie costume was my fav until I saw this.

After I finished something just seemed to be missing.
So I rotated the picture to add more motion. That is why the corners are blacked out. I like it because it not only boards the picture , but it adds a since of shadow to the picture. Like the light from the moon is beaming in through the sun roof.

I will color this in the future,but feel free to color it if you want.

Nice work, and up to your usual high standards! Your inks are always very strong, and this pic is no different. I especially like the difficult perspective angle that you've chosen, as it makes for a very exciting picture.

This is cool! It's quite a 60s style with her facial expression and the way you inked it. Love the perspective!

I always liked the purple costume, but the sole reason it existed was for fanservice. Her current costume fits her cat burglar motif much better.

I dont know.
The brown hair threw it off for me.
A skin tight body is no problem. Just as long as she doenst have all of that brown hair everywhere.
