Description I wanted to draw Catwoman. however I can not decide out of her billion incarnations which I like the most. so consider this a composite brought to you by ~celluloid-dreamer and myself.

In my humble opinion Catwoman should always be black...not fail Halle Berry black but sexy Eartha Kitt black.

... yea that's the stuff.

anywho, in case it's not obvious enough this is the identity (or secret identity?!?) of the woman in this picture.



BUT WHO IS SHE WITH!?... I'll follow that up at some point with another picture. or maybe I'll cheat and make ~celluloid-dreamer do it. I'm never sure.

I'd also like to go on record stating that this is the most unnecessarily elaborate background I've ever done for the sake of "fan art." but hopefully it's a step in the right direct for the future of my backgrounds in general.

Her body looks amazing!

I really like the coloring and her face. The way you draw long legs and cute butts are adorable!
I like her googles and cat ears too!

I must say I though Halle Berry was pretty as Catwoman, but yeah it was an ass movie. I never saw the older Batman though, but she looks gorgeous as her! Like you said, black Catwoman is the most fierce!

Great work on this Candy! I love it so much!! <3

I really like your take on BATMAN CHARACTERS since they have so many different outfits, people, incarnations and are practically like Madonna when it comes to redesigning themselves.

I really like both black and white versions of Catwoman, and both have their ups and downs actress wise. I REALLY dig your fan character, which is WEIRD since I'm normally trollface about them, with anyone. Maybe I'm just bias since I am a faggot for Catwoman.

Loving the shading, but be careful with the shading around her breasts. I dunno, its very strange looking. Also the textures in this are a bit unfortunate, as the brick wall thing just looks like poor perspective with a brick picture underneath. Anatomy wise? I'm really digging it, I'm also fascinated by this new Batman character project thing you have going on. Loving her booty, and FACE SHAPE. Oh god! Its so round I love it <3 The feet are really bleh, ESPECIALLY the one thats cropped a bit. That one is really bad :< Regardless, I can't wait for you to reveal the ginger kid, although he's probably the Riddler or some shit. I KNOW YOU.

it's true you could re-design batman characters into oblivion as long as they have the key elements that makes them tick.

Does this qualify as a fan character? since it's still cat women composed of various versions of her. I always thought of fan characters as "new" OCs made to accent existing bob kane characters (daughters of Joker and sons of two face ETC) I didn't really want to shade this at all, I had a very lackluster attitude about it until I got towards the end (I feel like it's time wasted if I spend so much time on pictures that are just fan art) so admittedly the shading is not my best.

YOU I can fill in on ALL the details well most of them at any rate.

I agree her cropped foot is terrible, I figured I could fix it in the coloring- not exactly but I'll watch that next time.

YOU WOULD THINK IT'S RIDDLER!...but not quite.

I fukken agree, Eartha Katt Catwoman is the only acceptable Catwoman.
I like the dramatic shading and how the color of her suit contrasts with the background.

HELL YEA!!!

thank you my dear! getting her suit to not blend in with the BG was a way longer process than it should have been.

I really like the background! I personally HATE doing backgrounds with a flaming passion, but this one came out wonderful! Not to mention you and ~celluloid-dreamer 's Catwoman render is just... sexy. X3

YOU AND YOUR SECRETS! I must know who these characters are! Seems like a fascinating little project you got going here.

I agree backgrounds are the biggest pain in the ass when it comes to art. 90% of the time it's just filler to me.

YOU'LL LEARN HOLD YOUR HORSES!

Gotta love that Eartha Kitt ~ she was terrific in anything she appeared in (as Yzma she was brilliant!)
I also know the song from your title (I didn't think anyone else remembered it!), I recently heard it being reused for "Megamind" - it's nice to hear it again!

I love the red Gotham background, reminds me of the 90's animated series

I wonder who she's with? For some reason I'm guessing the Riddler, maybe it's just the red hair?

AH YES the animated series was exactly what I was going for!

Riddler? CLOSE but no cigar! good guess tho!

Admittedly, Im biased on things Catwoman related, especially those that give light to the 1990's era outfit she wore (when Jim Balent was working on the comics). Still, I like the touch on the boots. Coloring her suit is difficult. I always imagine it as some sort of latex garment rather than cloth so I always try and keep it shiny looking. Still, latex is probably not practical in actuality, as sexy as it is.

Nice effort!!

Wow, this is really, really sexy! I really love her booty and overall sexy figure & pose. You did quite well on that aspect. I also love the background with the red skyline and cityscape; it goes so well with her purple catsuit. The gem she stole is also a nice touch. Excellent work overall! I love this.

I agree that Catwoman should be black, because everything is better with hot black women.

Nice job on the background. Even though thought of trying to draw buildings and architecture is enough to tire me out; I don’t know how comic book artists can do it for panel after panel.

I don’t have much of an opinion on what race Catwoman should be, but if she looked like this, I definitely wouldn’t complain. Eartha Kitt wasn’t my favorite, but I didn’t like how they made her more straight up evil and lost the quasi-romantic relationship that Julie Newmar’s character previously had with Batman, though that was more the fault of the time period the TV show was made, as implying there was something going on between two characters of differing races was considered somewhat taboo back then.

My Opinion on Eartha kitt may be bias, I love her music, her sense of humor, she was the first catwoman I was ever exposed to on top of that halle berry gave the idea of a black catwoman a bad reputation. plus I personally think batman's rouges gallery could use a little more color (hell, most comic book rouges gallery could use more color)

it's true, I was really bummed that they downplayed her and batmans love/hate relationship when Eartha took the role. I think if that went down today it would have ended MUCH differently. Catwoman was never meant to be a flat out villain she was suppose to be the grey area.

I know what you mean about Eartha Kitt She was the only catwoman I can think of who could make the character both sexy and powerful and the least said about Halle Berry the better!

I really like this drawing, the extra background detail is delicious, it adds a lot of depth and does a great job of making your catwoman standout The outfit looks gorgeous too, I love the colouring and design, very sexy, but still a true catsuit (Damn you Halle Berry and your insane outfit!) And the boots are sweet!

And her expression is perfect, sexy and smug

Candy2021 In reply to Linear-Toffee [2010-09-11 12:04:15 +0000 UTC]

she was perfect for the role, because shes INSANE!!! she was a revolutionary for women of her time! and I love her for that! Charisma oozed out of her every pore!

Getting Catwoman to "stand out" was a lot of trial and error, I wanted to keep the sky and city scape as red as possible, much like the "night time" effects in the animated series & The Baman, but I also wanted to make her catsuit more of a pinkish purple like in the 1992 comics, it took me a lot of tint fooling around before I came to the conclusion I was going about it all wrong trying to change the sky! instead of trying to make it less red, I should have tried to make her more blue, I swapped out the pinkish purple for the blueish purple ( my favorite type of purple BTW ) and the picture instantly improved! trial and error is my BFF.

thank you so much for noticing! it makes all the effort worth it when peeps notice how much attention to detail I try to pay my pictures!

She was an insane and brilliant woman and in my opinion Catwoman is always better when they play up her insanity as well as her brilliance. There's no real reason she couldn't just be a regular cat-burgalar, she NEEDS the costume and the dramatics she's fun!

LOL I have the same problem, when I do draw backgrounds I end up recolouring them or the foreground a few times to try and make them balance! But the background here looks gorgeous, it makes me think Catwoman is in a streets of rage style videogame I love it! And you are very welocme!
