preview of Nightwing Fandom: DC Comics
Characters/Pairings: Nightwing (Dick Grayson)
Media: acrylic paint
Notes/comments: I tried the scratching thing again, and unlike in my previous try with Robin I used this time only acrylics rather than supposedly water resistant ink. It was slightly harder to scratch (it sometimes sort of chipped?), but at least it didn’t dissolve when I painted over it. Additionally this time I remembered to scan the lineart and b/w scratched only inbetween stage in case something went wrong again after all. But I had no mishaps this time. \o/

preview of Nightwing patrolling Gotham (DCU), a drawing excercise for practicing silhouettes Genre/Fandom: drawing exercise / DC Comics
Characters/Pairings: Nightwing (Dick Grayson)
Media: pencil drawing, inked with a Wacom tablet in GIMP
Notes/comments: This silhouette practice is sort of fanart. I had Nightwing jumping around in Gotham in mind (or maybe Blüdhaven, what with the lack of gargoyles). I did the pencil drawing and then inked it in GIMP and added a fire escape and roof background that’s vaguely based on a simplified, inked version of two combined photos.

preview of  Gonzo (as Nightwing) Fandom: DC Comics / Muppets
Characters/Pairings: Gonzo (as Nightwing)
Media: Pencil sketch, some quick and sloppy coloring in GIMP
Notes: This is the fourth and last (so far) of my Muppets/DCU fusion doodles. In case you’re wondering why I cast Gonzo as Dick Grayson/Nightwing, there are several ways they resonate with each other (at least in my strange brain): Gonzo’s history as a daredevil performance artist (granted his colors aren’t the same as the Flying Graysons’, but still) and as stuntman, Gonzo’s romance life, and that in a world withouth Kermit Gonzo would have been become “a depressed street performer that plays the guitar for a dancing brick”, and considering I cast Kermit as Superman, I find the parallels fitting. (I don’t know if Dick would have become a depressed circus artist instead of staying a superhero without Clark exactly, but he wouldn’t have been Nightwing as we know him.

preview of The Nightwing and Arsenal ShowFandom: DC Comics (Outsiders)
Characters/Pairings: Shift, Puppet!Nightwing, Puppet!Arsenal
Media: pencil, cleaned up and colored in GIMP
Notes: This is an illustration for Sister Wolf’s Nightwing/Arsenal ficlet Show, inspired by this: “[...] Shift forms his hands into little puppet versions of Arsenal and Nightwing and mimes them beating up on each other like Punch and Judy.”

preview of happy Roy/Dick fluff Fandom: DC Comics
Characters/Pairings: Nightwing/Arsenal (Dick Grayson/Roy Harper)
Media: pencil, GIMP
Notes: This picture is Nightwing/Arsenal slash, it has some nudity but no graphic sex, just kissing, you don’t see more of the characters than you might in the comics, and it’s rather a lot fluffier than what you see between Roy and Grace for example.

preview of rooftop sceneFandom: DC Comics (Batverse)
Characters/Pairings: Batman (Bruce Wayne), Nightwing (Dick Grayson) — open to a slashy reading
Media: pencil, ink, colored in GIMP
Notes: A rooftop scene with Batman and Nightwing. This is the first time I’ve tried computer coloring, also the first time I’ve inked with a brush in a very long time.

thumbnail of KissFandom: DC Comics (Batverse)
Characters/Pairings: Batman/Nightwing (Bruce Wayne/Dick Grayson)
Media: pencil
Notes: While working on a more difficult drawing, I really needed a break and amused myself with a quick close-up sketch of a Batman/Nightwing kiss. It’s not great, and it lacks expression somewhat, but it took only a little bit more than a half hour to draw with a tangible result. And as I mentioned above, my standards for publishing stuff on this website aren’t that high.
