Description

Yeah, I know... it's been forever since I last posted something... No comment.

So, this is Jokester, from Earth-3 in the DC universe. Basically, everything is backwards. Joker (Jokester) is good, and Batman (Owlman) is evil. It really is quite fascinating, and there isn't nearly enough out there with Jokester. I'm not hugely fond of his appearances in the comics (he only appeared in 6 issues total before he died a sudden and ignoble death), so I would advise if you really want to learn more about him, go read a fanfic on fanfiction.net called Cirque de Trimphe by TrisakAminawn. Please. Really. It is a marvelous piece of work.
Anyway, more to come on this guy later. Because I love him to death.

Sketch was done in two parts, totaling maybe 40 minutes? The line extraction in CS2 and the painting in Paint.Net totaled at least 5 hours... I lost my progress once, and had to restart. It was a pain in the ass, for sure. All worth it, even still. This lost a lot of detail when I put it into Paint.Net. I'm severely upset about that.... Just for the record.

EDIT: Yeah, I keep forgetting to do the detail work on the pocket watch. I'll get around to it, maybe.....

Jokester was an interesting character; too bad we didn't get enough official material with him in it. I like the idea of him and Harley, but he could be paired with others.


I like this origin story for Duela Dent, not the new one where she's just some crazed Joker fan girl.
