This project is based on the DC Comics trio; The Gotham City Sirens. Cat Woman, Harley Quinn, and Poison Ivy are the three apart of the group. It's a sparse market for the Sirens. So, I chose to make shirts and illustrate them as simplified vector illustrations.
In this mood board, I included typography and illustration inspiration. In the middle, there are some key colors that will be used throughout this project.

Ideas for the Gotham City Sirens Logo
Final Sketch
For the "Gotham City" I went for a less refined look. Emulating street graffiti or blood running down a wall. The "Sirens" part of the job was more technical.
I wanted a Gothic/Victorian look with sharp edges. The duality of the fonts were to show the duality in the Sirens.

I wanted her font to be like a scratch mark as I was inspired by previous renditions.
Cat Woman Font Sketches
Custom Font Variations
The last iteration scrapped the scratch idea. I went another
direction and distressed the font.

Poison Ivy Font Sketches
Since poison ivy is a prickly plant in character and in real life, I channeled that for the font. I had trouble perfecting it, but I soon got it to a decent point.
