Deadpool

I gotta be honest. I’m not the biggest Deadpool fan. But the way Rick Remender writes him on Uncanny X-Force is just brilliant. He’s literally like an altruistic Joker… with swords.

I was figuring out ways to display the character’s stealthiness without having to spend too much time on the backgrounds (it is a sketch exercise after all), so I figured I’d use his costume’s dominant color as the same spot color on the wall behind him. Using the blood splatters as a rudimentary means to outline him was an afterthought. I’m pretty happy with how this turned out. I’ll revisit this trick someday.
