I've been wanting to do Catwoman for a while ... i know my brother's gonna kill me because she was so iconic to him when Batman Returns came out, and i may be blaspheming her for him, cuz he was so obsessed.
But oh well, now she's chubby and cutely playing with her ball of yarn!
I colored the mask and gloves with black prismacolor and the rest of her suit with this "jet black" graphite pencil that tends to give a silverish tone.
A) I didn't want to use up all that black
and
B) I think in the comics she had more of a gray suit, anyway, with black mask, gloves and boots.
I really should include the boots laying down beside her, or below her bum, just to tie in more of the black imagery, but i am not good at drawing boots or footwear ... because, as opposed to most artists out there, i like drawing barefeet so often, i don't know how to convincingly draw a shoe/boot!
But i like the image. It's fun and cute!
I printed out some images and concept sketches of Catwoman from online to get the stitches in the right places, too!
Hehe, thanks ... i took what i learned from making my Spaghetti girl and applied it to the ball of yarn, and as long as you make a bunch of lines in one direction then interrupt them by going a different direction and then interrupt THEM with ANOTHER direction and on and on, it can look pretty convincing!
