Harley Quinn DC comics contest entry


The controversial comic contest haha. So I entered! It was good fun and I learnt a lot doing it.  I don't like the result too much anymore, but I feel I've grown a little as a draftsman so it had it's use :) I'll need to try that whole process of rendering the sadows in black, comic style, some time
.
As far as my thoughts on the contest go, as I don't follow DC and how they've portrayed women before in their comics I don't see any issues with having her in a bath tub pulling a load of electrical appliances onto herself. I guess from her designs though that the female cast of DC comics haven't been given much material for clothing to work with. I think it's a bit weird though that people can think that Harley Quinn in a bath tub commiting suicide can be sexual....O_o...but hey ho, whatever floats their boats I guess XD.
