i forgot to comment on this, and i love it. probably my favorite of the things you have done. like everyone said tones are great, great positioning! I like the hunching of batman, done very well. It is truely impressive when you have such clear control of body language. that said, he just broke all the rules of the universe saying that to batman >:[]. To be honest, i had no interest in this heavy character before, but you really show his personality here and I want to see more.

WOW! That's probably the best comment I've gotten in a long time. I'm so glad that I could turn you on to Heavy. He is really a fantastic character. I'll do my best to get him to swoon you. lol.
Heavy is definitely coming in a big way. Just watch.

Thanks. Heavy's probably thinking Bats is some sort of tranvestite with a leather fetish!lol.

I dig it, I really do. But I'm sure you would love to hear any sort of critique as well. My only nit-pick would be that Bat's position is a little...scrunched (is that a word?). He just looks like he is hunching his head into his shoulders. Anyway, that's my two cents. Keep up the stellar half tone work.

LOL. That's pure gold, man. Heavy's got the grit and the stamina to take down anybody.

Thanks, man. I really drew this up many times as thumbs...it really had to look right, especially with the skewed perspective. I'm glad people are diggin' it.

Thanks, man. I was afraid the dialogue would come out cheesy.
I'm definately going to practice some more to get that razor blade cut away effect down to perfection.

Toning is so underappreciated in western comics these days, and it's a shame cuz I think this piece looks excellent.

Nice. Cool job on the halftones. Thanks for the link to that tutorial too, I've been wondering how to do that for a while.
I like the perspective on this too. Makes Batman look even smaller.

BrattyBen In reply to WonderDookie [2008-02-29 23:49:36 +0000 UTC]
Thanks, man. Yeah, I really wanted to show that Heavy is taller than Bats, but thought that a straight on shot would be boring. So, even though it's a bit distorted, it works pretty well from a storytelling standpoint.
I love the halftones, although, I still need some practice. That guys gallery friggin rocks with that stuff. Very cool.

WonderDookie In reply to BrattyBen [2008-03-01 00:48:43 +0000 UTC]
haha. I still think it is wishful thinking though. As bad-A as Heavy may be, nobody beats The Bats.
Yeah. I was experimenting with it a bit myself after checking out the guy's stuff. Just did a quicky sketch for my "webcam" on here.

Yeah, nobody could beat Bats, really. But, a guy can dream...

LOL. He gets them from his Turkish friend. Or maybe he rolls his own extra big.
Yet another one of those great comic book physical oddities!!

I really love the fact that someone still appreciates Noir enough to make a main character in the genre! I hope you keep Heavy going!
