Description Ok, I got the numbers way off on the others. This one is 15 though. It's the one that I drew all the interior art for, and not very well. I'm not Bruce Timm.

Anway, it was fun coming up with these covers. Trying to illustrate a whole story in one image can be very challenging. this issue featured Freeze and Nora finally getting back together, only to have Batman screw it all up. Thanks a lot Bat brain!

This is amazing! Is there any chance of you ever re-uploadling this as hi-res? I'd love it if you could. Great work though!

This is not only my favorite covers of yours it's one of my all-time favorite Freeze covers. You don't need to compare yourself to Bruce Timm. You did an AMAZING job here.

This is one of my favorite covers ....I got this comic....your interior was good and nobody is Bruce Timm, but on the same note, Bruce Timm ain't you either.

This for me goes right with all those title cards they'd have on the animated show... simple and bold compositions but executed perfectly. This just has everything you need to know about Freeze in one place.

of all the batman villains - i love Mr Freeze.
since i sympathize with his desire to bring back his wife from the dead...its weirdly romantic..

this is one of my favorite Mr. Freeze artworks

I can't remember. I make layers and then flatten it as I go, saving different versions just to be safe.

I absolutely adore this image... I didn't like the issue though, but more because of the story.

Roboworks In reply to Abt-Nihil [2007-06-16 16:59:44 +0000 UTC]

Really? I thought it was ok. My art sucked big time and the colorist totally ruined it.

My favorite Freeze story is still "Heart of Ice" by Bruce Timm. I almost cried.

Abt-Nihil In reply to Roboworks [2007-06-16 19:21:54 +0000 UTC]

In my mind Mr Freeze really went downhill after "Sub Zero". The movie was an appropriate closing for him, almost everything done after that was weak. However, If I recall correctly, there was a Mr Freeze story drawn by Rick Burchett, whose art I cherished (not quite as much as Ty Templeton's, but the two are greats in their own right), and for that alone I liked it... it even seemed to have gotten Freeze's abysmal character twist from the new Batman Adventures season back on track again. So I was really looking forward to THIS issue, but for me it was a letdown. I don't recall the quality of the coloring, but I do recall not liking it for the story, not because of your art.

And I absolutely agree on "Heart Of Ice". I don't think 20 minutes of TV animation have ever had a greater emotional impact on me.

I still love Mr. Freeze from the old animated series, one of my faves from the series 2nd to The Joker only.

Amazing work, Roboworks.

Most of the time I don't sign my stuff. I like the image to stand on it's own. Long gone are the days when artist filled up half the page with the signatures. That always annoyed me.

How the heck did you do that glass??

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Roboworks In reply to BrattyBen [2007-06-15 14:33:30 +0000 UTC]

There was a glass cover to a cake holder(plate or what ever) in the studio and I took some photos of it and just tried to mimic it the best I could.

It's on a seperate layer from his face for one thing. I would never attempt anything like that without protecting the other stuff. That would be crazy. There's some regular airbrushing and some on lighten, and then a few hit with the Color Dodge air brush tool. That reall makes things pop.

That's cool. I'm a big fan of the dodge brush. Burn and color. I don't use color as much as I should. Really nice work here, bud.
