This is a really neat sketch you did on such short notice. The background really gives me that "Pow!" feel that most comic panels give off with enthusiasm.
Also, I know how you feel about getting rusty on your own characters... I haven't lined mine out in god knows how long and to top it off I haven't even given them a solid design either, Arrg!
I hear you...I definitely have to do more with my own guys too. These character especially. I did a comic issue for them and I would love to be able to do more, I just haven't had the time or ambition lately. It's sooo much easier to bang out fan art that requires almost no thought to do
Yeah, it's really all about the motivation that sets me back. ): I've got their concept set down in my head... but I'm having trouble getting anything more from that. lol And I agree, making fanart is so much easier too create en masse quantities. (Gets you more comments too...)
I've never had a run in with an angry kid questioning my artistic license fortunately. This may just be because the most frequent DC character I ever draw is Scarecrow and he doesn't really have a solid 'design' to go off of. (That and his fanbase really isn't all that big to begin with.)
What I'm really fortunate of though, is never having someone at DC questioning my artistic license.
Thankfully DC or the many other companies and people I rip off haven't come to me either. But with all the fan art that's out there, I don't think they would even have the resources to track us all down for not owning the characters we draw. At least I hope not...
Yeah, I really wouldn't think any big hit companies would spend petty time jailing their fan artists. Besides, it's free publicity and what not.
Though, can't get the mental image of some big suits storming into a suburban home to rip the drawing of Batman a four yr old did off the fridge somehow hilarious.
And oh man that is a hysterical mental image--just seeing that poor devastated four year old's face while dudes in suits and big sunglasses and ear pieces or whatever put the little crayon drawing through an elaborte shredder machine of some sort makes me laugh
