"Some men just want to watch the world burn."

I know it's not perfect, I didn't mean for it to be so. This is my own style basing on the real one and I'm happy enough that I did it in color. X3 And I ain't touching it again. But can still tell me what you think of it. :)

Spur of the moment, I never thought I ended up coloring it. Was around midnight or after that I started drawing it. I was gonna leave it black and white! Just been feeling like drawing the Joker for a few days but wasn't sure how to draw him. I wanted to reflect his craziest moments, one I considered and still do is when he slided down the pile of money. Others were when he jumps over Batman to stamp on the guy and giggles like an idiot and any other part he's laughing.

Then I thought this one suited him as well because of how he likes blowing things up and it was an awesome part when you see him pull that thing on his shoulder.

I started it without reference but in my head I had this one image from the movie's art/script book for the pose when he's on the truck. Here: [link]

Then looked for the book to get the details for the weapon and the masks of the guys and any other details from the Joker I couldn't remember.

And the title and feel from listening to the soundtrack and remembering Alfred's line as it's also the title of one song.

Background shades in pastels.
Prismacolor pencils.
Digitally framed because it looked better.
Book for reference: [link]
Only mine has a close up of the Joker in the cover. X3 (Was the reason I got it :XD:)

You draw on your bed too? We have to start a club for that or something. XD

Yes, I do enjoy your handiwork on this image. I used to be a Batman fan in my younger days of lore, but the characters that peaked my interest were The Penguin and Catwoman.

It's the most comfortable place. Anywhere else in this house I get a backache. So it's either on the floor in the living room or my comfy bed. Also prefer the bed because I can have my music there (Mom doesn't like it) plus I dislike having anyone hovering over my shoulder when I draw, even less someone who doesn't appreciate it and so I'm stressed as she walks about so my room is my private heaven.
But I never tried using pastels for fear of messing the bed until now. And surprisingly, I didn't make a mess. XP

I actually never been a Batman fan. I'd watch the movies and cartoon but was never a real fan of any hero series at all. But I've always loved the Joker, always loved psychopathic people like that who laugh and act stupid and make jokes but can also be scary and dangerous. I actually got some respect of Batman in Returns as they made him more realistic and human, and Heath now just did awesomely but I've always had a thing for the clown in any incarnation. :3

I just love his face. His smile specifically. Heck, maybe his teeth specifically.

I also really liked the recent Wonka one you did.

I'm very impressed with the Joker's stylized face and the attention you gave to the background coloring. Adding his buddies in there also helps balance the composition.

:aww: ~:heart:
