Glimpse into my Tuesday morning class....

Just got back from my illustration class, here's a glimpse of my class & what I was working on this weekend. I chose to draw Yvonne Craig's 1966 Batgirl, painted with gouache (Alex Ross) style. However, I decided to add some purple glitter to her outfit, made it really stand out more. (You can barley see it here, but it covers her entire outfit) Enjoy.
