#gotham rogues
I’ve been thinking of trying for something a little closer to comicbook style? what do you guys think?
Also I did redesigns for some villains
Riddler is up in the air still need to work out his main outfit some more. While I liked the Batman movie, that interpretation of riddler is not my favorite. I like Gotham’s Riddler but the costumes in the last episode timeskip doesn’t do it for me.
I’m happy with scarecrow, I was going for something a bit more safer around his own fear toxin. This scarecrow is kind of neurotic and anxious, this man could be spooked by his own shadow. A coward to the core and hates confrontation. His fear toxin will trigger panic attacks not hallucinations.
Joker is Joker I don’t like this character I don’t find him all that compelling the best joker on screen is Cameron Monaghan and I don’t care for all the crazy for crazy Heath Ledger wannabes.
Selina…I have plans for her later down the line.
I darkened clayface so he’s not weirdly orange brown like a melty turd. I don’t know if I did great but I think he’s decently spooky looking.
I don’t think there’s ever been a real definitive look for two face so here’s another one to all the variants. I did a small comic for him I would like to expand on his relationship with Bruce and his trauma.
I loved the brief look at pink haired ivy from batman ninja and will continue to roll with it. I think it allows for more focus on the parts to make her look more unnatural like maybe her eyes of strangely sharp teeth. This ivy is not really human, talking to her feels like making deals with a devil who takes payment in dead bodies. So I try to convey a bit of that.
Lastly is penguin who I tried to make him more of a reflection of what I imagined an older fox’s Gotham penguin would look like. Half of his face is scarred and shredded from a grenade and the monocle is on the eye that still sees. This penguin is a classy sharpshot with silver and blue color scheme.
Putting my own spin on Two face.
I feel like the Nolan movies did a really good job at starting him off as just a guy who got really screwed over but I think we could still go further with his character beyond the “funny coin man times 2” As I thought about it more I love the thought of him actually having to be two faced to the public and his personal life after the incident. Not mentally ill, not bipolar, or multi personality disorder just a guy who’s torn between being the same old good man Harvey dent and his real feelings about himself and the world around him after being mutilated by the court of owls. I personally don’t like how overused the joker is and I find the owls to be kind of underdeveloped.
Also feel free to ask me stuff about this fan batman project or share some headcannons or fanfictions. I love talking about this stuff.
how must the Dick -> Jason Robin switch have looked to the Gotham Rogues. it’s not as if they did a formal ‘attention, Robin has quit his job and will now be operating as Nightwing’ announcement. like after a certain point it must have become like a Known Thing that periodically Batman gets new sidekicks. but that first changeover must have messed w people’s heads right??
like. you are a B-list Gotham Rogue. You haven’t seen Robin in months. You’ve asked around and no-one else in the circles you move in has seen him either. You’re starting to get worried but you aren’t sure if you have the kind of relationship with the Batman where it would be appropriate to ask after his sidekick’s wellbeing. Every time he shows up Robin-less you get progressively more stressed out.
you are a B-list Gotham Rogue. Batman has Robin again but he is very clearly a different, significantly younger boy. This suggests that the OG Robin being gone is a permanent state of affairs. You’re starting to fear the worst. You’re like 85% sure Robin died and Batman quietly replaced him with a different child in the same costume. You’ve been asking around to see if someone killed him but no-one will admit to knowing anything. You really want to ask but you don’t feel comfortable asking the Batman if his sidekick got murdered, especially not with the new kid right there.
#i don’t know anything about Jason’s early robin days#so I don’t know if JASON knows if Robin the og was alive either#like clearly it’s a touchy subject for Batman#i imagine if he didn’t know dick was still alive he would come to the relatively reasonable conclusion that nightwing killed him#like#Robin disappeared. nightwing appeared nearly simultaneously. Bruce refuses to talk about robin one and he has Complicated Feelings about#nightwing that can be interpreted as anger#some villain with more balls than the rest asks Jason Robin where robin 1 went#and Jason’s like ‘uhhhh I’m pretty sure he died and I think nightwing might have done it?’#literally the next day he learns dick is alive and is nightwing#this is really unlikely to have happened but it’s really funny
gfkhgfk ok but that gives me the image of the Rogue in question being like *loading up on weapons* ok I may be a villain but I draw the line at killing teenagers, that’s just messed up, I’m going straight over to Bludhaven to make that bastard pay ):<
& then they proceed to have just the Most confusing series of interactions w Nightwing before the two of them figure out what the hell is going on
Ok but what about three years later when all this actually happens to Jason?
you’re a B-List Gotham Rogue. You haven’t seen Robin 2.0 in a couple of months, but you’re not too worried, based on previous experience you figure he’s just moved on to do something else. You ask around to see if anyone’s run into any new costumed vigilantes who might be him and -
- wait he died? for real?
you’re sure?
ok who was the son of a bitch who did it, that’s messed up, we’re gonna find them and - oh it was the Joker? oh yikes. oh man. that’s just awful. I hope he didn’t - with a crowbar??oh my godoh no no-
AU where the Joker actually fucking dies and it’s because the villains and henchpeople of gotham all took turns beating the shit out of him until he died.
When Jason comes back he find out that it was the “bad guys”, NOT Batman, not his own dad, that killed the Joker to avenge him and he’s like “y'know what? I like these guys better” and becomes a crime lord to give them better working conditons
i don’t know the specifics but I want this to tie in with @thisiswhereikeepdcthings thing where Jason is the goons’ adopted dad
That would be perfect
Jason: The rogues killed the Joker before you ever did!
Bruce: I know, right? They didn’t even ask me about it!
Jason: *pauses* Wait what?
Bruce: I had so many plans formulated too! They couldn’t’ve sent me like a notice about it? Really?
Jason:…
Jonathan: it’s all about honour, blood, and integrity with you, isn’t it Eddie?

Watch your mouth
- The villains in this city may rob banks, kidnap ppl, or essentially cause chaos
- But they will f#ck you up if you say or do something… controversial?
- If you some wack ass N#zis Supporter, the Joker will run you up
- AndAll the vigilantes will turn a blinds eye on you (Batman may show up, but only after ur severely beaten up)
- If you are Homophobic? Specifically Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn will make your life a living hell
- If you’re racist, You will probably get jumped by Red hood, Bane, and Baby Robin, etc. (The Signal will find a way to expose you)
- If you kick a cat. Your getting jumped by cat woman and 30 cats.
- If you beat up a street kid, you will also get jumped by Cat woman, Red Hood, Poison Ivy, and a good amount of the rogues
- The heroes/vigilantes may not come after you, (except for a few like Baby Robin and Ref Hood) but they will expose you, ruin your reputation, and cancel you online.
- Essentially, even the villains have morals and will go after you.
#OnlyInGotham do you play in a small band for a bunch of rogues/villains Christmas party. It was the Riddler again. He Fr called up his pit Orchestra to play some jazz at a Christmas party
The Joker requested us to play WAP
I saw Poison Ivy at one point. I WOULD LET HER FEED ME TO HER PLANTS. SHES SO GORGEOUS. Killer Croc dude was there, he performed a song at one point. But Fr the whole shebang showed up.
