[cw teeny bit of blood]

Return of the RH: Prometheus digital sketchbook, feat. a doodle of Jason’s previous face design and playing around with brushes, a couple of pages with resident oc Kieran (one page costume design current version, one page relationship with Jason), Talia rough design feat. baby Damian, Cleo costume and prop design current version + doodle of her and her dads when they were alive, current version of Jason’s face with early Robin era and semi-catatonic era versions, current version of Bruce with him being very unkind about Jason post-death and -return as a terrible coping mechanism, and a couple of pages re: Gotham and rough layouts for Jason+Kieran+Cleo and Dick/Kory/David’s apartments, feat. a doodle of David, Dick, and Kory in bed together

takes break from working on designs to do more designs, DC Comics top 3 faves edition, with a doodle of Jason, Dick, and Damian. since my top 3 ended up all being batfam (technically the top 4 are but Bruce would bring down the vibes) I wanted to give them sort of a team look while maintaining individual looks, which… didn’t quite turn out? maybe I’ll try again later

[cw blood, guns?] [disclaimer: none of this is ship art]

was getting increasingly frustrated working on RH: Prometheus, particularly design-wise, and remembered Procreate’s page assist function and how people use it to do little digital sketchbooks, so the first 7 pages of my RH:P sketchbook (not incl. the cover ‘cause it’s ugly and I want to redo it lol). trying to be looser and less focused on getting things done Right Now, which just tends to result in me being unsatisfied with everything and going back and redoing stuff, etc.

anyway a bunch of doodles with Jason, his guns, Dick & Bruce, a special guest appearance by the Joker recreating a reverse of the final UtRH confrontation for thematic reasons, and thematically relevant animals (not in that order). still working on designs, pinpointing relationships, etc.

unhappy with everything I’ve been trying to draw, went back to an older unfinished drawing that I still thought was pretty cute and finished it, + added one extra doodle. iirc I originally drew it because I just wanted to draw RH: Prometheus Dick bending over to talk to Robin!Jason, because smol. extra doodle demonstrates why Jay’s upset to begin with (Bruce sent him home during a mission) and features Dick gently noting Bruce is probably worried and looking for him since Jay wandered off to find Dick instead. it’ll be fine, probably.

I meant to go to bed early ‘cause I got like three hours of sleep last night but sometimes you get caught up doing other things then as you’re about to go to bed your brain fixates on the “And doing it because… …because he took me away from you.” line from Under the Red Hood and you just gotta draw some Jason before you go to bed. arguably too baby? but arguably not baby enough in UtRH in any panel except the “And doing it because…” panel? eh, good night

needs a break from designing and also once again making myself suffer trying to draw expression sheets, draws RH: Prometheus Jason & Alan smooching

RH: Prometheus doodles, working more on resident oc Kieran’s design - face/expressions (guest-starring Jason & Cleo), current rough ideas for his costumes (as Talia’s “Sparrow”/Robin equivalent (in theory - in practice he ended up being more a comedically highly trained personal assistant + babysitter for Damian) and a more streetwear-based design for Gotham to go with Jason & Cleo’s similarly streetwear-based costumes), considering different mask designs, and a doodle of him, Damian, and Jason on one of their semi-regular, not-Bruce-approved outings

[72stars]

I’ve been wanting to draw something for RH: Prometheus directly referencing the story of Prometheus, but I couldn’t quite get my original idea for it to work so I took a look at classical/etc. paintings of Prometheus and landed on John Singer Sargent’s with its vulture (replacing the eagle) laying its head on Prometheus and its wings wrapped around him and went “hell yeah this symbolism works”, and thus, a redraw

[72stars]

RH: Prometheus Alan Scott, playing with his Green Lantern (or “Gotham Lantern”, to differentiate him from the space lanterns) design, + more hand practice and him interacting with Jason both as teens and adults, + cape physics doodle set. cape concept/intent: floaty, ethereal, prone to varying degrees of being magically on fire

[72stars]

missed drawing X-Men: Burning Bright Scott and wanted to practice drawing hands, thus

[72stars]

cape physics/shapes in RH: Prometheus, with rough sketches of Batman, a very rough Superman design, and two Robins, Jason & Damian.

concepts/intent:

Batman: organic and weighty, somewhere between an ink cloud and flesh, bordering on being its own character or at least Bruce’s ominous pet

Superman: angular, bold, buoyant, like wings when still like an action line when moving

Jason: being Robin gives him magic! floaty and round and protective

Damian: somewhere between Bruce & Jason - floaty, round, and protective, but also organic and weighty

success debatable? (particularly on Clark) but working on it

[72stars]

continued adventures in working on something way too long until I give up on it because I need to work on other things, feat. rough ideas of outfits/fashion senses of RH: Prometheus Jason & Dick, + Jason’s friends and Dick’s triad.

row 2: Cleo (& Sebastian) & Kieran

row 3: Dana & Alan

row 4: Kory & David

Hi, Tumblr. It’s Tumblr. We’re working on some things that we want to share with you. 

AI companies are acquiring content across the internet for a variety of purposes in all sorts of ways. There are currently very few regulations giving individuals control over how their content is used by AI platforms. Proposed regulations around the world, like the European Union’s AI Act, would give individuals more control over whether and how their content is utilized by this emerging technology. We support this right regardless of geographic location, so we’re releasing a toggle to opt out of sharing content from your public blogs with third parties, including AI platforms that use this content for model training. We’re also working with partners to ensure you have as much control as possible regarding what content is used.

Here are the important details:

We already discourage AI crawlers from gathering content from Tumblr and will continue to do so, save for those with which we partner. 

We want to represent all of you on Tumblr and ensure that protections are in place for how your content is used. We are committed to making sure our partners respect those decisions.

To opt out of sharing your public blogs’ content with third parties, visit each of your public blogs’ blog settings via the web interface and toggle on the “Prevent third-party sharing” option. 

For instructions on how to opt out using the latest version of the app, please visit this Help Center doc. 

Please note: If you’ve already chosen to discourage search crawling of your blog in your settings, we’ve automatically enabled the “Prevent third-party sharing” option.

If you have concerns, please read through the Help Center doc linked above and contact us via Support if you still have questions.

I wanted to draw Weapon VIII again after reading the preview for Edge of Spider-verse (2024) #1, and I wanted to play with the Maxpack oil brushes some more, thus

EDIT (+ SPOILERS?): apparently actually a Peter Parker with a Cyclops-esque costume instead of a Spiderclops, booooo :V

RH: Prometheus doodles, altering my Robin!Jason design a bit, guest-starring Nightwing & Batman

[72stars]

and a quick timelapse, because I remembered that’s a thing I can do. I have no idea what I’m doing and you can tell :)

I feel like this is a fine stopping point. RH: Prometheus Jason portrait with Maxpack oil brushes
