There is something delicious about late Victorian academic painting- more reminiscent of modern-day Illustration than anything, and with that distinct tang of Egyptomania.
Cléopatre essayant des poisons sur des condamnés à mort, Alexandre Cabanel (1887)
I hate Harley’s new design for the DC reboot- much like the rest of the internet- so I took a quick pass at doing a modernized Harley that doesn’t immediately show off too much skin. And doesn’t put an acrobatic character in a corset, because that makes a ton of sense.
I think I’d be pretty happy if I owned a leather aviator cap with Harley-points.
There are some awesome redesign contests over on Warren Ellis’ forum every once in a while and, seeing how this round was Egyptian mythology, I’m finally throwing my hat into the ring.
The idea for this particular challenge was to do a modern day version of Sakhmet, as she might appear in comics. I took a bit of a high fashion route in interpreting her traditional garb (read: ZIPPERS EVERYWHERE ZIPPERS), and what the hell! I like it.
