Colored some of my doodles today (:

Art dump..... I still like gotham..

[imactuallysoup]

Got back into gotham recently...did some quick sketches to pass time

I don't know how to draw people kissing 😔

[imactuallysoup]

Rouges...but i really like the bronze and silver age and wanted to draw them in that older style :)

And this isn't a comic redraw or anything, it's all my own art and idea and I'm really proud with how it turned out!! I really love this kind of shading and wish it came back in style <3

I could convince someone this was a comic panel if I tried hard enough hehe..

(Previous sketches and yellow background alternative below)

Some screenshots of the process plus yellow bg

The pink bg looked better

I like this riddle man

I’m about to start Arkham city. I can’t wait to get all the Trophies.

Seriously, I think that type of stuff is fun.

I ended up watching a documentary on penguins and loved it

Penguin Parade

I'm in a batman villain drawing frenzy....I'm so happy batman villains exist so I can draw them and grow as an artist so I can draw them better so the cycle continues....

Im so glad batman exists in my life...it inspires and motivates me to draw when my life feels inescapable, drawing my favorite characters comforts me I think

I doodled edward nigma

Should I draw him more...? Hmm... that's a riddle

[imactuallysoup]

I never left batman....in my heart batman media is my life...mostly villains anyway

[imactuallysoup]

I'm learning how to draw this bird

The first one is my favorite becuase it's so colorful, I gotta get that comic asap

Oh no batman is dragging me back into gotham by my ankles and now penguin has captured my heart again

He's gonna remain one of my favorite characters in fiction forever I think. I once talked about him for four hours in a single sitting....I've done this multiple times with anyone willing to listen at this point...I love him I think

I adore the ratman

(Rat anon) do you have any headcannons or anything for ratcatcher (not many people like/know about him, so I want to hear someone talk about him/show some love/etc)!!

hi rat anon!!!!!!!!!!!!

i received this ask SEVEN YEARS AGO and i have finally finished and compiled all the art i had originally intended to attach to this post

anyway i still love ratcatcher. i think hes genuinely one of my favorite batman rogues in the bunch, even if i dont think about him a lot anymore : )

in terms of headcanons ummm.....

i think he should looove the rats. his backstory is not finalized in any way in my mind but i think he cares about the rats and loooves them, as an ex-exterminator who now cares about protecting them so much. idk if that should necessarily be his primary motivation for committing crimes (a la poison ivy), outside of maybe the inciting incident making him spiral to the point of rat-obsessed city-wide terrorism in his personal Year One. but that happens to everyone in gotham city at least once it's ok.

i think seeing himself as inherently inferior is also core to his motivations. i like that for him : ) i think he tries to justify any criminal activity with the idea that he's punching up, even if it gets out of control or has Ramifications. like im sure theres no long-term consequences to unleashing one million rat plagues upon the entire city, or doing Rat Torture to various people you dont like. nice job punching up buddy. but fighting batman and losing every time only supports this justification, so whatever ♥️

i like the idea of him having some kind of redemption arc at some point. i dont remember Mother Panic too well and i cant find any receipts for this so sorry if this is dead wrong but iirc he had like a surveillance/spymaster sort of role in that? and i kind of love it. i think he has potential as an investigator or like information broker who can work with batman or other more "good-aligned" characters.

i dont really engage in fandom or shipping or anything anymore but ratcatcher x pied piper is such an excellent crack ship to me it still warms my heart. idk if anyone else is in on this or if im simply a genius. who sees two morally gray rat-obsessed Green Bitches and is like is anyone going to make them kiss. and not wait for an answer. one of my hcs about them was that hartley names his rats after his favorite composers and dramatic/literary figures and otis names them whatever the fuck he wants

i think he should also have a rapport with killer croc. sewer-dwelling solidarity. i dont think he would get along Great with a lot of the big-name rogues, but i can see him vibing with maybe like.. scarecrow and harley? i think harley is chill enough that they could get along really well, and jon is tolerable enough out of costume, plus the Fear thing appeals to him. he sits at their table at arkham during lunch hour

and yea i dont know : ) i gave him heterochromia for fun. i think hes kind of short. i dont think he would use it/its pronouns for himself but i think he would readily Accept them. i dont think he thinks about that stuff. i think he's well-read and Sharp, he just comes off as kind of awkward and disorganized. skittish and ratlike in his mannerisms, but still very emotional and passionate.

thank you so very much for your ask ♥️♥️♥️ hope this works as an answer! so sorry about the delay i wanted to make it a Good post

Muppet man

Blegh sketches for the day

Trying to practice drawing this mf

[imactuallysoup]

I love how you draw slade and his face oh my god, you're my favorite artist on here

feeling nostalgic and horribly reminded that i tried emulating his manners back when i was a teen, down to his body language and all

[imactuallysoup]

Mr soup updates his persona to match his personality and likeness!

The older persona was made years ago and I changed as a person since then and I think I connect better to this newer persona. Without the bat symbol on the chest, it will be just a black tee. It's nothing memorable but I like it have my likeness more :)

[imactuallysoup]

I love how simple he is to draw, he's the creepiest villain ever. He's the villain that truly creeped me out.

I wonder who's blood that is

I made one with an alternate white backround aswell with some sketches underneath

Hehe get that old man back in prison
