Work In Process

Please post your submissions below. If you prefer to work in pencil or black and white, that’s okay. I’m sure we can find some volunteers for digital ink and color to tie it all together.

Also, if you need to bow out for any reason, just let me know. I’m sure we can find a fill-in artist willing to pitch in.

Due Date: Friday, April 23

What I’ll try to do, time permitting, is as characters come in, I will start building the overall piece and replace the stick figures with the actual art. I’ll add a work in process picture to this top post and we can watch the whole thing come to life!

Big thank you to CP for creating this group bringing us all together. Let’s go make something epic!!

First work in process pic is up with Killer Frost on the board! :+1:

Now this is starting to look real!
It may look small on screen, but it’s actually quite large if you download it and view it full size.

Here’s my ManBat. Just want to make sure this will work before I throw some color on it. Any suggestions?

That looks great! I’ll see where he fits best. He might have more space up top next to Dr Fate.

Here’s Dr Fate.

I added the B&W ManBat to the work in process pic to determine placement. I think it works well flying up from below, even though we lose view of the feet.
We may have had more obscured behind everyone at the top.

I’ll replace it with the color version when you’re ready with it. :+1:

The very top is kind of calling for a DCFAC logo…

That’s cool. I think it works there too. Don’t worry about covering up the feet. It looks like it belongs right where it is. I might change the wings a little but nothing that would affect the the placement.
