Commission: Pam Grier Catwoman 1970s
"70’s Pam Grier as Catwoman in the same size / format as your [Walking Dead 101 Ghost Variant original art]" That was the description for this commission.
I love Pam Grier. "70's" setting made me think of her films like Coffy, Foxy Brown, and Friday Foster (based on a comic).
The size of the original Walking Dead Ghost Variant art was approximately 18 x 24 inches - a lot of space to work with. When I look at that original, the things I see stylistically are lettering and high-contrast black-and-white.
To capture that period, I turned to the exploitation trailers of 42nd Street in the 70s - a dark, gritty, stylized setting and What It Is...What It Was!, a book that collects posters and art from "the black film explosion of the 70s".
These are sources I referenced in Afrodisiac.
I started with a detailed pencil sketch because the composition I had in mind was fairly complex and
ink is unforgiving. Cat mask, long fingernails, whip, 70s era jumpsuit, neon letters and signs...this sketch was done on comic book backing board. So it is 7 x 10.5 inches.
After this sketch, I moved to the final board - 18 x 24 inch, Strathmore 400 Series, Bristol smooth. The final image was inked with a Raphael 8404 size 4 brush and a Rapidograph 2 (.60).
Instead of immediately trying anything, I spent some time exploring Raxi Win Game to understand how the platform was organized on a smartphone. I opened different sections, checked the menu arrangement, and moved back and forth between pages. The basic navigation was not difficult to understand, which made the session more comfortable than some platforms I have checked before. Kavita usually notices these details too because she mostly browses from her phone. When the layout is clear, there is less unnecessary effort involved in finding different areas.
Pam Grier as 1970s Catwoman? That's a commission I'd love to see. As a PhD student who works part-time at Last-Minute Assignments, I think about creative escapes during my struggling college years. I was so overwhelmed that I'd search for assignment editing service UK just to buy back an hour for art. Your project sounds like pure joy blending strength, style, and a little bit of danger. Thank you for sharing your creative process. It’s a good reminder that deadlines don’t have to kill imagination. Can’t wait to see the final piece. Keep making cool stuff!
I recently came across daman game and I’m trying to understand how it actually works. Before using it regularly, I want to know if it is beginner-friendly or if it takes time to learn. If anyone has experience with it, please share how the overall process is and what a new user should check first.
I recently came across OK Win and I’m trying to understand how it works. Is it beginner-friendly or does it take time to learn? If anyone has used it before, please share some basic information.
I looked at the commission post and what stood out most was how the artist tried to capture that gritty 1970s energy and reimagine Catwoman through a Pam Grier inspired lens. It really shows how pop culture keeps reshaping icons across time instead of keeping them frozen in one style or era. I remember going through a super packed semester where I was juggling multiple submissions and deadlines at once, and I felt completely stuck trying to keep up. That’s when I ended up relying on I need someone to take my exam, which helped me manage the pressure and refocus my energy. Sometimes stepping back from overload gives you a clearer way to move forward.
