Dc Alternate Universe - Blog Posts

   I had this idea in mind for a while and decided to try my hand at sketching my ideas down. Then posted it on another site, but decided to also put this here, because I figure some of you might be interested?

   It’s important to note that these are based on the current concepts I have for my designs for them. Jervis is still in line for quite some change, especially in his outfit, so it might not end up looking like it does here. (I’ve also been considering making a few changes to Jonathan’s design, but that’s not concrete yet)

   So, here they are, these three as anthro animals. (Inspired by Beastars/Beast complex, mostly. ...But also 'Batman vs the TMNT')

   Feel free to reblog this if you’d like, but please don’t Reupload or repost! Especially on other sites!

   If you want to read a bit about these, feel free to do so:

Jonathan 'Scarecrow' Crane:    Jonathan in this AU is a Arabian horse/Crocodile hybrid. As such, Arabians being as skinny as they are, coupled with the crocodile's typical appearance makes him incredibly unsettling to look at even before he hit puberty. Once puberty came, patches of his fur began to fall out, revealing patches of crocodile skin/scales underneath. I like to think his entire back is void of fur and covered with crocodile hide/spikes.

   His ears are half torn due to his being a victim of Keeny's trained crows. I just find it a bit hard to believe that they wouldn't go after his ears in this AU seeing as they're so out in the open. Horse genetics and all.    I love how he came out here. He just has this unsettling appearance that really adds to his design I think. I also noticed while sketching him that he kind of looks like a dragon a little bit??? I didn't draw clothes on him mostly because I wanted a good look at how boney and angular he looks. And that HAND. I'm so proud of that hand. How spindly the fingers look, the scales on his face, the fur around the scaly patches. *Chef kiss* perfection. Super proud of how that came out.  

Jervis ‘Mad Hatter’ Tetch:

   I knew I wanted him to be a rabbit. That's the first thing. But instead of going the boring route of making him a pure white rabbit, I decided it would be neat to make him a harlequin. (Seeing as I wasn't going to make Harley into a rabbit, figured I might as well.) I also like the aesthetic that comes with the ears poking out of the hat brim, so I needed that in this picture for sure.

   Not much to really say about this one, it's pretty straightforward.

Edward 'Riddler' Nygma:    I decided on making him a lion because the 'pride' jokes were too good to pass up. (Though I also like to think he's actually a leopon, but pretends that he's a full-blooded lion.)

   I- would hate to admit how long it took me to figure out how to draw his hat. Also lion faces are damn difficult to draw, lol. You can't tell me a Riddler lion wouldn't have his full head of mane just flowing over his shoulders like that. I refuse to believe that he would cut it short. Also, forgive me for how awful that ear jewelry looks, drawing stuff like that on animal ears is difficult to figure out.

   I'm pretty happy with this one as well, not nearly as proud as Jonathan, but still pretty happy with it.
