Batmanbirthdaypencils

Here is an updated version of one of my old Batman images from BATMAN: RACE AGAINST CRIME, a book that I illustrated for DC Comics a few years ago, coinciding the release of the BATMAN film, THE DARK KNIGHT. This version is a much more realistic rendition of the Dark Knight detective, and it is drawn on bristol board using wooden pencils (HB and 2B graphite). I illustrated this new image as a birthday present for my neighbor's son, Tyler, who is a fan of the classic, blue & gray version of Batman! Tyler is a kid after my own heart! That's the version I grew up with, and the one I like best.

Hope you like it, Tyler!
