Tears of a Clown (My fanart)

I'm usually not one to post artwork unless it's a holiday or something, but I needed others thoughts on this. I think it's really good, but I know that no matter what I can always do better. So that's where you guys come in, I'd like some constructive criticism. Here's my Arkham City version of Harley Quinn.....

really cool

before i do that is batman looking at harley or is he facing backwards?

i really like it and my only criticism is you should've gone with blonde harley. since its based on what happened after arkham city

Pretty good! As far as some constructive criticism... hm. She looks a bit squat, I'll say... short for how thick she is, and her head is a bit too big to be realistic. Unless she's a chibi, I'd say you could use to stretch her out a little, particularly her legs which look almost comically small.

Well done! The only thing I can say are the legs could be bigger. Other than that, I like it! :D

Pretty good really. I like the separation of foreground and background elements.

A couple of ideas... you might want to cut off the part of the tree that's sticking out of the rectangle. That way you can have a clear separation between foreground (stuff that can come out of the rectangle) and background. Also, you might want to try to make all those things in the background like the tree and Batman be silhouettes, just solid black. OR, keep them colored, but add much harsher black shadows on the left side... think Frank Miller. If you dont want to try that out on your original work, make some photocopies and try stuff out on those. The problem with the background stuff now is that it looks too flat, especially since you have some nice shadowing going on on Harley and the foreground stuff.

Anyway, just some ideas. Hope that helps.

@The Lobster : :)

@The Lobster : Nice job, really good.

I like it! It has a cool eerie feel to it that fits with Harley.
