Well I like to draw freehand and use shading in all my fan art. I do use referances as you will see in one of my drawings.. I do not trace or anything like that but I hope you all will like them.
heyy i remember i got that same Joker in ur first pic, I bought a DBZ deck of cards when i was a little kid xD nice drawings, wish i could draw T_T but imma tracer for lifee >:]
I still have the comic book I will take a picture of it with my drawing and you will tell the difference in size. I always draw the characters bigger for some reason.. as you can tell with my first picture I posted
