28 Days of Robin - Day 12 - Nightwing (Red Costume)

 Hi!

Day 12 brings us a Nightwing costume with red highlights.

"The red is believed to be a nod to the Bat Family, as most members of the Bat Family have used red in their costume in some way. His use of red is believed to symbolize his reunification with his mentor, his reconciliation with his past, and his willingness to be included as a member of the Bat Family."

from 10 Things about Nightwing

Seems a bit deep but hey there's gotta be some reasoning behind it right?

Enjoy!

28 Days of Robin - Day 11 - Apparently NOT Robin - Heretic

Yo!

A character from the DC Comics New 52 (confusing ass) Teen Titans Futures End story, that I thought was a Robin (potentially Tim Drake) but not, accordingly to my recent checks, ah well. (I also thought his hands were gloved, lol!)

He's Day 11 and that's that :D

Enjoy!

28 Days of Robin - Day10 - Angry Birds Robin + more

Hiya!

Angry Birds is such a great little mobile game, so much fun poinging crazy birds against the pigs and destroying their constructions, ooh and the Star Wars version with the whip of gravity round planets - extra fun!!

Probably the same amount of fun I had creating this little guy and then going a bit nuts with variants, finding more as I went though I had to stop sometime as I'd not get onto the next Robin :D

So for this Robin we have:
Robin Red Breast - like the UK version of the bird

Toutouwai - NZ Robin - like the NZ bird :)

The original sketch: Red Robin - like the Rovio bird Red

Enjoy!

28 Days of Robin - Day 9 - Carrie Kelly Robin

Hi!

From the Dark Knight Returns series by Frank Miller - Carrie Kelly - I think was the first female Robin I came across and thought it was pretty cool that there was a female Robin. 

Think I'll have to go back and re-read the series again :)

It's really enjoyable to see the difference in the finished version of the Carrie Kelly Robin!

Enjoy!

28 Days of Robin - Day 8 - BlokHedz Robin - Tim Drake

 Hi,

Blokhedz came out at Z Energy service stations in 2014 and I don't believe they ever had a Robin Blokhedz, so, I created my own - Tim Drake version :)

Pretty stoked with how well he turned out

Enjoy!

28 Days of Robin - Day 7 - Jason Todd - Red Hood

 Hi!

Jason Todd was not really a character I was familiar with till Red Hood came around, so I figure he still deserves a spot in the count of days,

So here he is as Red Hood. Quite a difference from the initial version (and I managed to put his second elbow in this time round :D), cool action pose I think!

Enjoy!

28 Days of Robin - Day 6 - Damian Wayne

 Hi!

I will admit, not one of my favourite characters to start with but he's grown on me a bit and the launch of his solo series is a good fun read.

In this image, I'd gone with what I felt was a spoilt brat pose, but ended up kinda liking it. A fair bit of difference between the first image and the new tidied up one.

Enjoy!
