"I haven't used that name in a long time! Call me...Darkwing!"

Hello everyone! It's been a long time huh? This is a veeeeery late Birthday gift for for her birthday that was before New Year's Day but because as you guys know I was away, I could not make something there and when I came back I had to finish two esseys and study for one examination so I did not have time either. Now that I finally found a day to draw again, I thought I should have made something for my Aibou! It's been such a long time!
My main inspiration for Yu-Gi-Oh drawings hasn't come back yet but like I did for 's gift I wanted to do this for my friends that are more Yu-Gi-Oh fans than W.I.T.C.H fans! I also remembered that my Aibou had made a crossover like this with Teen Titans and I was aiming making stuff like this for her in a long time! Now that I finally managed I tried making a fast sketch for her, also meaning to see if I remember how it's done! Besides I have been dying making Yami with long hair ever since his samurai-like picture for my story Dracula!
Anyway here's the deal of what happened in that episode:
Firestar (Anzu/Tea) is excited because it is the Friendship Celebration day in her planet and so she wants to celebrate it with her friends. However none of her friends seems to be taking her seriously and on top of that they are fighting each other over the silliest of things. Firestar is really frustrated because she believes her friends take friendship for granted and she fears for the worst for their future and whether they would stick together with that attitude.
Then, while the team is facing someone from the future, Firestar gets trapped within a vortex of time and space and finds herself in a dark, twisted future in which Domino City is a cold place. Her friends are all grown old and also their friendship is broken, each one of them had ended up in their own sad world; Cyberborg (Honda/Tristan) is bound to the Titan Tower, unable to move away without being placed in a plug, Beast Joe (Jounouchi/Joey) is locked in a cage, tranforming for other people's amusement and Harpie (Mai) has remoted herself from everyone, fighting her own demons.
None of her friends seems to have any will to fight anymore, apart from Sparrow (Yami) but he too seems to have given up on his team, not believing they can be together anymore and so he has chosen himself the path of the lonely punisher of crime. The years of hardship and loneliness along with his personal bitterness and sadness made him changed too in many ways and he even discarded his old name, which he used to be the leader of Teen Titans, now calling himself Darkwing
Forgive me for the low quality of this! Apparently I have grown rusty at drawing! In the beginning I was aiming for this to be a full-body picture but I made a mistake with the analogies and so it ended up like this instead but then again I would not be able to make any more details if I had made him smaller to fit at a full-body. I was also aiming at keeping this "cartoonish" bodytype to make it similar to the Teen Titans style . Now forgive me for the colors looking like this! My scanner recently is not the same but on the other hand I am not complaining because it helped me with the...night effect!
Also sorry but the paper was really bad quality and couldn't avoid tearing it by mistake at the down right corner. Sorry!
Anyway I hope you like it, my friend, and you all of course! Now as for why I chose the name from Nightwing to Darkwing It was really random. It was because usually changes the names of her characters in the crossover to make it more unique or fitting with their personalities so I decided upon changing it myself. I went through many names before settling with this. I thought of "Blackwing" or "Dark Phoenix" or many others but I decided to keep it simple. Also because "Yami" means "Dark" I wanted to make that connection. Also I wanted to show the "evolution" because the sparrow is a bird with "dark-colored" wings so Yami here evolved from a "small sparrow" to a "dark-winged" predator.

Didn't except something like this, but that makes me love this even more. I love that you decided to give him a different name like I had been doing. Even the fact that you included links to my drawings for the different characters that you mentioned in your summary of the episode. Even adding that summary was a great idea, because I had forgotten part of that episode, since it has been a while since I have seen it. Having his hair long like that is a great touch, plus I think he looks great with his hair that long. Makes me want to draw him that way. Adding the line he would say is great. Once again you have made me such a wonderful drawing for my birthday!

Thanks Aibou. I am glad you liked it. It is not something really good but I guess it is presentable
You seemed to like Teen Titans so I thought of making you something like this for a change instead of the usual stuff. In the beginning I thought of drawing it like that without background. Then I realized it would be too plain again and so I made some basic background. Then I considered of sending it to you without colored background and just a colored figure, like it happened in old Marvel comics! However I ended up drawing and coloring the whole thing!
I am glad you approve the name. I wasn't sure what you had planned for him so I just changed it like you did to many of them.
I thought I should place the description/summery because not all people are familiar with the old Teen Titans series and so I wanted to give a hint of the plot. Hehehehe I am glad you liked his long hair. For some reason I thought it suited him too, when I made him for my story as a samurai/assassin, I thought it suited him and I decided to give it a try again.
I am also glad you liked the line. I thought I should give it a "comic vibe" that's why I also added the bubble instead of just writing the line to the corner like I originally planned to. Anyway I am glad you liked it as a birthday gift. I couldn't make something better!

You're welcome.Β
I do enjoy Teen Titans a lot. Adding the background was a good choose, because it makes this a better drawing over all and creates a nice scene.
To be honest...I'm not sure either, because right now I haven't been working on drawings for that series I started. I have one unfinished drawing, but that is it. There is thoughts for which Yu-Gi-Oh! characters I would have as certain Teen Titan characters, but aside from that...nothing.
True...since Teen Titans GO! is the latest Teen Titans series. That and I have seen many drawings of Yami in long hair and that length of hair suits him.
It deserves that kind of vibe, because of Nightwing being a comic book hero. This is fine and I couldn't ask for anything better.

You're welcome. I still think the background is wonderful.
Glad you understand and I'm glad you were able to make this idea happen.
When you change something like that it can be tricky to change something like that.
That is something to work on next time.
