MY biggest problem with Catwoman #1: the art.

Reading the comic while sitting at a restaurant today, I found myself trying to recreate her facial expression in the above panel. Needless to say, as I was alone in public, it did not go over well.

Guys, THIS IS NOT A NATURAL FACIAL EXPRESSION. Ok, I know I’m not as attractive as Selina Kyle. But her face isn’t showing surprise, or anger, or sadness, but rather some unnatural attempt at combining all three. For those who are interested, I have included some possible alternate expressions. All of which came much more easily to my face.

Unlike, yaknow: 8/ or o/O or maybe o~O or…?


hm.. not quite.

 
yes. YES! PERFECT!!!

    I like to think that this is Selina’s expression when she reads the scripts for each issue ;D
