THEY’RE HERE!!!! MY BATFAM PROTOTYPES ARE HERE!!

Obvi there are some things to fix up (dick’s escrima need to be bigger, adding hands to the weapons so you can’t the gold hardware, slight colour correction, ect ect)

BUT

They’re so fun!! For a first pass and how much I struggled with getting the weapons the right size I’m so happy with them. I’ve got an artist market in April, so if the next pass is good they’ll be available then and if not the prototypes will be there and the charms will be on preorder!!

Also like, lemme know if you want online orders and I’ll try and get a website up and running, the batboys will need homes!!

Decided to play around with the designs for fallen Mario and Luigi. Their personalities are the same, although mostly based off the Mario and Luigi games, which is why the letters on their hats are black. Their sweaters were also important. You can't be a fallen human without a cute sweater. Both got a bit scuffed up when they fell, but thankfully they weren't injured or anything.

I also wanted to play around with soul colors because I had no idea what I was gonna do with those. Ultimately, I decided to keep them red and green so they could be easily distinguished, but Mario has a more orange red for determination + bravery (and as a reference to the Firebrand) while Luigi's is more of a teal-ish green to reference kindness + patience and also his iconic Thunderhand. I was really worried about using the same colors on top of their clothes but after playing around with the lighting I decided I really liked the look.
