View Full Version : Oracle/Batgirl(s) Challenge

First post on PencilJack, though I've been lurking for awhile.
Watching the season premire of "Birds of Prey" on WB filled me with... bile. Being a huge fangirl of the DC universe (particularly Oracle, the new Batgirl and Catwoman) and seeing them.. mauled filled me with longing to see good fanart of them.
So, the challenge, should it be accepted, is this:
Draw Batgirl. You can draw her as any of her incarnations: Oracle (Babs Gordon in wheelchair), 60's tv-show Batgirl, comic Batgirl, or her new incarnation in Cassandra. Multiple characters are bonus. :)
It must be an action pose (or, at least, of impending action or just completed action. A pose of her just having landed with her cape and hair still flying will work).
The picture must be monochromatic. Black and white is fine, though I'm looking for something in greyscale, or in blues or reds... I'm sure you guys are creative enough to think of something.
For those of us who better understand things in pictures: ;pencil; (draw) ;bat; (Batgirl). [Couldn't resist the icons, sorry.]
If you need clarification/want to discuss any of the elements (like, "I don't have time for this, can we do that instead?"), I'm available via PM or this thread.
not an action shot, but something I did a little while back..
the sketch scanned and photoshopped...

later I painted it in painter(not monochromatic though)...

Wow, I love the way you colored her (particularly the suit). :O
For the purposes of the challenge, I'd say that the B&W version would deffinately work... Assuming anyone else takes up the challenge. ;D
If any other people are interested, we can work on when the time limit is. (Which I forgot to mention in my original post - that those interested would work out when it was due.)

*laugh* By all means, yer in. If no one else responds by Saturday, it'll be me, Spyder and CS (unless CS would rather not submit this/do another?).
Yay bedtime!

I'll do it as soon as I wrap up my other drawoff. ;bat;
How about personal interpretations of Batgirl?
What's the deadline?

Personal interpretations are fine, as long as she's recogniseably "Batgirl". ;)
I was thinking a deadline of October 22nd, but it depends on the schedules of all others interested. I can make it sooner/later as nessessary. :)

The 22nd is cool with me if it's cool with everyone else.

As long as the 22nd doesn't clashwith my tournie entry, I'm into a bit of this...

I may take a stab at this. I'll be doing something that will eventually be painted(by hand/airbrush) I have another to do but i'm up for this if the time allows for it. Man another sniper killing at another Michael's. This guy needs to be stopped NOW!!;dvl;
This was orinally in color but for this I changed it. Looks sorta funny in grey tones.

I'm sure you guys know how this thing works more than I. -g- I assume when your submission is done you email or PM me the URL and on the 22nd (probably around 10pm central or so), I'll pop up the voting thread with the submissions. Correct me if I misunderstood. :D

Of course! There's always room for Jello! .. I mean, more challengers. :D

Nothing doing here either. Not enough time to finish anything now anyway. :(

I'm a moron and forgot about something I have to do early tomorrow, so I won't be up late enough to post everyones entries (what, two including mine, unless those that were posted earlier in the thread count?)
So I'm extending the deadline until Friday (since I don't think I'll be up late enough to post it Wens or Thurs night either). (Yay for weird comm. projects. ;P )
Those of you with sketches or B&Ws should have the time to finish by 10:30 pm central Friday. As for those with no ideas or deadlines that interfear with this, 'tis okay. Maybe I'll catch you some other challenge. :)

If it's Friday, I may do something. I just finished my college apps and I need something to unwind to, so if I have time I'll try to come up with a pic.

Wait until Friday at 10:30, or until everyone's is in, and then the voting thread will presumably be posted by Klawzie.
