Description
Last upload today, then back to the colors on the final CATWOMAN cover, #82.I upload this because I've been accused, on more than one occassion, of digitally inserting a photo for the background on this one, instead of drawing it.
Pardon "mon francaise", but a polite smiley-faced emoticon FUCK YOU to such folk. I spent 4 whole days working out the fish-eye three-point perspective on this one, penciling, and inking JUST THE BACKGROUND. I worked my man-sized ass off. Yes, I look at pictures of cities to get the architecture right, to see how the lights of nighttime windows make strange shapes. But that's just to get the drawing RIGHT, not to cut any corners.

Back in the day I had the opportunity to buy the entire 'Stan Lee does DC' series for $5. To this day I consider not buying it to be one of the dumbest things I ever did...

This is by far one of the most impressive inked pictures I've seen, and I am in complete awe. The detail achieved in this piece is incredible, and the shapes are all clear and well-defined, not confusing or overwhelming at all. I greatly admire your work!

Man, I don't even want to think of how much distance there was from the paper to the vanishing points, kick ass work as always.

Actually, because it was such a wide-angle "fish-eye" shot, the vanishing points were pretty close!

o_O Sir this is quite amazing. I enjoy her costume too it's fantastic. Especially upt top it reminds moe of the 60's show Catwoman. Without the face mask that is. I absolutely love the claws! ^_^
I love how photo realiztic your drawing is. GotDamn that must have been taxing to get perfect. I want to do comics eventually. My own hopefully. It's so inspiring to see this stuff from the artists hand on here. Wow, just wow.

I can imagine doing that kind of detail but to work 4 whole days streight on it blows me away. Im not saying your slow or anything Im just saying, man i couldnt stick with a piece long enough to finish it if it took that much patience. You've got mad skill there and alotta gumption to finish a picture that difficult.

Jeez, I can't even imagine doing all that detail. But that's just one more reason why your work is Epic. Don't let the haters get you down man.

I actually quite like it when they insert a photo of a cityscape or a building into a comic panel.
This is brilliant though.

Why does she have Deathstrike fingers? I thought DC was supposed to be more pulp noir than fantastic?

Because they got MARVEL artict Chris Bacchalo to do the interiors, and when he designed Stan's Catwoman, he gave her those claws. I was just following the designs...

there's so much tracing and copying going on, especially after what david mack did to you...
like you say, it's one thing to look at a photo or another person's art to help with problem solving or to get inspiration, but...
after i found out that tim bradstreet just traces photos (even if he's the one that took it), i lost all respect, for him.

"Lady Lethal?"
I think you meant "Lady Deathstrike."
