Week 36 - Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy By Rich Bernatovech

The latest theme on Illustrious Bits was "Catch-Up Week", menaing revisiting any of the previous week's themes and drawing something from them. I decided that I was going to do a bunch of Batman villains, since I sell a lot of those character sketches at conventions and NYCC is coming up fast! But with eveything I've had going one recently (just returned from Italy, trying to get NEVERMINDS #3 finished and get the two new Drumfish figurines back in time for NYCC), I was a little too busy to get many done. Still, I got two of the more popular characters done. Here are Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy. Love these ladies!

Week 36 - Harley Quinn by Stephane De Caneva

" week 36 : "Catch Up/Revisit - One week you have missed or want to revisit"

I initially drew this Harley Quinn for IllustriousBits week 14. However, I wasn't that confident in the result so I ended up never posting it...
In retrospect, it's not that bad, so here it is, thanks to the "Catch Up/Revisit" week "

Week 36 - Harley Quinn by Andrew Charipar

I completely missed Harley Quinn week but I still did a sketch, so now's the time to post it, whoo hoo!

The idea here was "what if Harley was a member of the Bat-Family?"  And this is what I came up with.

enjoy

Week 15 - Nightcrawler By Rich Bernatovech

Here's my contribution to Week 15 of Illustrious Bits. This week's subject is Nightcrawler. He was always a fav X-Men of mine and I was shocked that they killed him off. Of course, lol, they brought the "Age of Apocalypse" Nightcrawler over to the real Marvel uiniverse, so basically, he's kind of back. He's always a fun character to draw too. And even though this was a quick sketch, I kind of like the way it turned out.

Week 14 - Harley Quinn by Randy Ostridge

Another great sketch from Randy.

Check out more of his stuff at Deviant Art here.

"This image is for a weekly theme over at the Illustrious Bits sketch group.

I recently got a full set of cool and warm Copic gray markers, and this was my first attempt at blending the two tones. I had been using Prismacolor markers in the past, but they are quite a bit different than Copics. I have to say that I like the Copics much better.

Harley Quinn is a fun character because she has so much attitude. As I have never read a lot of Batman books, most of my exposure to her is from the fantastic Batman: The Animated Series. She is an awesome character in that iteration.

Pencil on paper, inked and coloured with black, cool gray, and warm gray markers."

This One is GREAT!  Perfect!!!

Michelle did Harley in a Batgirl costume... Wonderful!

"Harley as Batgirl drawn and colored in Photoshop. It's Harley week at and in the Batgirls series poll Harley came out on top, so I figured this was the perfect time to re-do one of my favorite pieces!

"This is for Illustrious Bits' Week 14, Harley Quinn... The first time i saw her was at The Batman animated series way back early 90's, she was so cool. Haven't posted anything for the past 2 weeks... and i did this as fast as i could... bummer... its like 5 minutes for the line art and another 30 minutes for the colors... so sorry."

Week 14 - Harley Quinn By Rich Bernatovech

Here is my contribution to Week 14 of Illustrious Bits. This week's character was choosen by the fans over on Deviant Art. I always love drawing Harley Quinn and love her original costume design. Sorry, the new DC version is not my taste. Why can't silly and fun characters stay silly and fun?

Week 7 - Gotham Sirens (Take 2) By Rich Bernatovech

I wasn't sure I'd get this version done, but this is my original version of what I planned to do for week 7 of Illustrious Bits. I'm not wild about the background though. I actually imagined it a little differently, but this is how it turned out, lol. I hope to get it colored soon and make it into a print to sell at conventions.

And here is the colored version by Danielle Alexis St. Pierre!!

Week 7 - Gotham Sirens By Rich Bernatovech

So, week 7 of Illustrious Bits is my pick of any Batman villain. I originally hoped to finish a full figure drawing of the Gotham Sirens, but since I've been away for a week, I haven't gotten it done yet. I didn't want to rush it and I actually still might finish before the end of the week. But just in case, lol, I did this quick headshot type version of the Gotham Sirens, so I didn't miss out on my own week. :)
