Top 5 Projects Inspired By The Joker

Discover 5 Domestika community projects that use 'The Joker' as inspiration.

As we get ready to celebrate the release of The Joker movie on October 4th, we want to share 5 of our top community projects that have been done with The Joker as their inspiration! Each of these projects were submitted as a part of different courses by some of our talented students and we think you will enjoy them just as much as we have.

Projects:

1. Pablo Silva, @pablo17silva
Created as a final project for the Domestika course, “Watercolor Illustration: Recreate Your Most Iconic Scenes” by Carlos Rodríguez Casado, this amazing watercolor illustration showcases the impressive use of color and recreates an iconic Joker scene.

2. Carlos Rodríguez Casado, @carlosrodriguezcasado
This Domestika teacher who teaches the courses “Caricature in Watercolor”, “Watercolor Portrait Sketchbook, Watercolor Illustration: Recreate Your Most Iconic Scenes”, and “Watercolor Drawings: How to Paint Expressive Eyes”, demonstrates his skills in this community project showing how watercolor can be used to achieve great detail!

3. Santiago Valencia, @santiago109
For his final course project in “Designing and Modeling Comic Book Characters with ZBrush”, by Danu Navarro, this rendition of The Joker shows us how much time and work is put into making a sketched out design the real thing!

4. Carlos Nicolás Retis Cáceres, @nico_retis
This artist really leaned into the teachings from Abraham Garcia’s course “Digital Shading Techniques” and created something amazing! The use of different colors, patterns, shades, and shapes is truly breathtaking.

5. Pablo Vera Acevedo, @zeusdarkseid
Diego Catalan Amilivia teaches students how to create realistic anatomical drawings in his course “Realistic Portraits with Graphite Pencil”, something that this student truly embraced! The level of detail and shading in his final project is incredible. The Joker is perfectly depicted in his manic, shadowy manner that we all know.

We are so excited to see how the new film tells the story of The Joker and inspires even more artists to create amazing projects such as the ones above. Hopefully this article even gave you a bit of inspiration to create something new!
