Jillian Tamaki

November 25, 2008

I saw Jillian Tamaki’s Dark Knight illustrations in Entertainment Weekly not long ago, and thought they were great. Then by coincidence I fell upon her illustration web site this week, and it turns out she is fantastic.

From her blog entry regarding the Dark Knight illos for EW:

Truthfully, this thing was actually about a week and a half in the making. It was a MASSIVE project, what with the full-colour treatment, lettering and bajillion likenesses. To complicate matters, since this movie is not yet available on DVD and there are apparently no photos of many of the key scenes, I had to tromp out to one of the two movie theatres in NYC still playing The Dark Knight to SKETCH my reference.

SERIOUSLY.
