Prototype Rorschach

After receiving an actual Watchmen book (I originally read the whole thing from a download), I found some neat extras included in the book. Among them were early drawings by Dave Gibbons based on Moore's outline. What really intrigued me among these was an early design for Rorschach. While Rorschach was clearly designed based on The Question, Dave Gibbons' early design for him was completely different. Instead of a trench coat, Rorschach wore a full body unitard. This was no simple unitard for it was made of the same material as his mask. This meant that instead of just his face, his whole body constantly changed in patterns. This really intrigued me so I decided to draw it.
