Some Sort of Batman Fan Art

My friend in his youth created an entire storyline and comics based on some batman like characters. One was BatChao (his last name being Chao) which was I guess, for all intents and purposes, Batman. He was then killed, and became BatChaos. A new BatChao rose to take up the mantle of the now deceased and ghostly BatChaos. In this universe, Batman exists as a comic character. . . I didn't go too far into the nitty gritty details of how things work seeing as how this was a middle school creation.

Anyway, I'm currently deep in Arkham City (Which is fantastic) and got the urge to draw the Batman, but didn't really want to devote the time to doing it. . . And in some kind of perfect storm of coming up with a flimsy excuse to do some batman fanart, I went ahead and did a fan art drawing of my friend's characters (who are basically batman anyway). He also works at Disney Interactive, so that should explain the BG. Oh, and it's the size it is just in case he wanted to use it as the art for a custom iPhone case online.

I sorta skimped out at the end because it was getting late so the cape isn't all that it should be, but overall, I'm fairly happy with the results. Here's some pics I took while I was drawing the thing.

BatChao is the one in the front as well as the one in the initial super sketch -_-;; Apparently, he's got like, a baklava type deal on underneath the mask that covers his entire face. Anyway, just thought I'd share cuz. . . . well, just because.

In the meanwhile, I'm still working on my game. I've redone the targeting system and I personally think it works better now. I'm also in the midst of trying to figure out how I want dialog to work, so I've been making, dismantling, and recreating my dialog system. I've got some specific things going on that I think are unique so I can't really share it at the moment as I don't want to give it away. . . you know. As if anyone would really steal my ideas, but on the off chance, I'd rather keep it to myself until I'm ready to really show it off =P I'll post some other updates sometime soon.
