Description
I recently finished reading the graphic novel (yes, it's true, I was a Watchmen virgin), and needless to say, I liked it a lot. The first half was a little on the boring side, but the second half more than made up for it. I can definitely see why it's a classic. Very intense and well-written -- and I can see why people go back and read it multiple times. I have the bug to re-read it already. Anyway, it's been so long since I took a few hours off to draw something for myself, so here's my take on the gang.Pencil, brush pen, then colored in Photoshop.

Watchmen really is a classic, and with the movie coming you, reading it was just perfect timing. Great to hear that you enjoyed it.
Very nice composition. I think Laurie came out the best, but Rorschach's pose is definitely inspired.

Watchmen is an Alan Moore Classic. You should also check out his, "From Hell..." That goes for anyone else who hasn't read it!

Its really nice seeing you push the variation in the linework. It adds a real sensitivity to your work. This is a nice piece. I wish the color in the comic was this appealing.

The awesomeness. I must say though, the movie Nite Owl isn't as pudgy as the one in the comic. Well, not that I'm complaining.... xD

I really love this a lot. I too was a Watchmen virgin then I saw the trailer for the movie and was compelled to get the graphic novel. It was very layered and complex and I think this piece brings that out. Excellent job !
