Description This is a commission of the Joker being as menacing as possible. He's incredibly intimidating in this scene.

'My father was a drinker and a fiend...'

Really enjoyed painting this and thank you very much to the commissioner...cheers Gordon XD.

Acrylic on Canvas.

I've been drawing since I was a nipper. Painting is a recent thing for me though. I didn't even paint in Uni, it was all about the drawing I paint everday with acrylic now...bloody good practice and immensely fun too!

Love this scene! Your acrylic work is stunning, I remember my hard times with painting because I treat it like my pencil work. Over time I had been able to curb that habit. Still haven't painted in a year.

Serious though, your work is fantastic!

i agree. i remember when joker caught the fake batman and was torturing him on camera...i distinctly rememeber him saying "LOOK AT ME!" when the dude started to drift away in this really deep and scary voice. i nearly jumped out of my skin and out of my seat! HE FREAKIN KILLED THAT DUDE AND WORST OF ALL HE PAINTED HIS FACE, HUNG HIM, AND THREW AGAINST A BUILDING!! *takes deep breath* chilling...

Thank you

Loving that Rorschach quote in your sig. Do you think they just changed to 'The world will look up...' for the trailer?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

tear--drop In reply to sullen-skrewt [2008-08-30 01:10:43 +0000 UTC]

My pleasure

Yes, that quote is the best in the book
I don't know why they changed it in the movie... maybe they wanted it to be more catchy?
But the movie might not come out for a really long time do to some copy right problems

sullen-skrewt In reply to tear--drop [2008-08-30 10:35:48 +0000 UTC]

Ahh yes, the whole Fox debacle.

To be honest, they would be seriously stupid to delay Warner releasing the film. They could get monies out of it and I think that's what they want, there wouldn't be any point shooting yourself in the foot as far as the box office potential for Watchmen is going. Fingers crossed anyway.

I'm sure that they'll get their Wolverine trailer added before the film

As for the line, I think maybe it's just for the trailer's sake. Some footage of the trailer shown at comicon is on Youtube and the bit where Manhattan's blowing up the Vietcong looks far more bloody then on the standard trailer, so maybe they've just tweaked the trailer a little bit.

tear--drop In reply to sullen-skrewt [2008-08-30 14:57:58 +0000 UTC]

Yeah and it'd be kind of idiotic not to release a film that's cost them a whole lot of millions. But like you said, fingers crossed.
I ddn't see the Wolverine Trailer yet! Is it good?
Yeah often times in trailers they shorten things up.
I'll go check that out

sullen-skrewt In reply to tear--drop [2008-09-01 10:48:17 +0000 UTC]

Well, I read recently that Fox was (allegedly) wanting to block Watchmen's release. This I see as BS because not only would they end up HUGELY unpopular with the fans of Watchmen (and they are growing...) but I believe they're just trying to worry WB into giving them a cut. I don't think WB are without blame though, copyright should have been sorted out and watertight before they proceeded. However don't know all the details, so I couldn't say for sure who is in the wrong, damn sure I'm not pleased with Fox though.

The trailer for Wolverine is good, not as good as Watchmen though

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

tear--drop In reply to sullen-skrewt [2008-09-01 13:35:05 +0000 UTC]

Absolutely, Fox would seriously be making a mistake in not releasing the film. The same coyright issues happened with Spiderman. It took them something like 8 years to finally have everything settled to make the movie, but like you said, WB should have really made sure everything was dealt with before making the film.
Anyways, Fox should have given up their copyright along with the other rights they gave up. They're asses for keeping copyright to the movie when everything else is free range.

Watchmen trailer just plain rocks
