Description
Freee.....Free fallling. lolI've liked batgirl since I was a kid, but never really knew the full story. My friend Jasmine (killlertune ) told me how much of bad ass she is, and I got that sparkle in my eye, especially when Batgirl became the Oracle. Then when I saw this drawing of batgirl link it inspired me to draw my own, and capture that feeling that she was falling as well.
This art work took forever. I got a little discouraged after I lost my file to a computer crash. ;_; so I set it aside until I decided to bite the bullet again. My brain was struggling with sooooo many lighting, anatomy, and perspective things. I had so many critiques from my professor and friends that to the point I wasn't really sure what to do. BUT Never give up!
Because I saw the finished art work in my mind. It was just struggle of getting there was discouraging. But I don't like giving up on an art work, it means giving up my baby. lolThe armor is a bit of an original design. Since doing that type of down ward perspective, required leading lines to guide the eyes. lol But I maintained the original bat sign and gloves and boots.
I hope you like it.

And thus, after surviving the hundred-foot fall, she was shot in the spine by Joker. Jason Todd tried to protect her, by was murdered in the process. After weeks of recovery in the hospital, she wound up in a wheelchair, later rejoining Batman as his tech-savvy partner Oracle.

Overall, this is an extremely strong piece. The pose is dynamic (a little illogical, perhaps...but if Barbara freaking Gordon wants to strut her stuff a few miles over Gotham's rooftops, are YOU gonna stop her?), the color palette and shading as distinctive and well-chosen as ever, and the background incredibly eye-catching.
Two particular features I want to highlight: the eyes are just really damn well done, drawing the viewer in quite vividly (a recurring strength of your work); and the film grain effect on the background really makes it stand out.
Given that a lot of Babs' best stories over the years have had that sort of Gotham-by-Noir feel to them - I've often noted that she's arguably surpassed Bruce in the "World's Greatest Detective" millieu by this point - it's a fitting and welcome touch.
I don't really have much to offer by way of useful criticism; to be frank, it's bloody gorgeous, and an excellent representation of the character besides. I'm really struggling to come up with something concrete to critique, LOL.
So instead, I suppose I'll simply congratulate you on another job superbly done. Hoping to see you maybe take a stab at a few more DC characters someday - especially in their "Young Justice" incarnations, of which my room is distressingly sparse... *hint hint wink wink nudge nudge DAMN I'm such a Greg Weisman fanboy*
Well, anyway...best wishes to you, and thanks for another fantastic piece! I hope that you've been doing well.
Cheers!

You did a really good job. The only thing I can see that might need some work is with the expression on her face. She looks bored. And I don't think he could be in that situation, But all i all. good job! Keep it up!
