Batgirls

Barbara Gordon/ Batgirl/ Oracle

The Commissioner's daughter was infamously disabled by the Joker (in The Killing Joke, 1988), and became Oracle, an IT and communications whiz. While other characters returned from crippling injury (and death!), she remained stuck in her chair until written out of it in 2011. I'm pretty happy with her hair and yellow bat-stuff.

Hush (2003)

Whilst Babs was wheelchair-bound, other teenagers took the Batgirl role.

Cassandra Cain/ Orphan

Cassandra Cain is the daughter of the assassins Lady Shiva and Orphan. She was raised without speaking, only fighting, so that she could become a supreme martial artist. Oracle took her under her wing and let her be Batgirl. She can barely speak, but is getting better, and loves ballet. She later steps down as Batgirl and retitles herself Orphan, like her father. As you would.

Orphan & Orphan

I was pretty happy with the white- it is a thin blue-grey wash, drybrushed white, and a black pin-wash around selected areas.

Stephanie Brown/ Spoiler

Her dad was a C-list villain ('Cluemaster'), so Stephanie Brown became The Spoiler to thwart his plots. She got in Batman's way a few times, and she undertook the Batgirl role. She was also Robin for a while. In the overall continuity, she is back as Spoiler and is the romantic interest for Tim Drake (Red Robin). I always see her as a Buffy the Vampire Slayer-esque character- a blonde, wise-cracking crimefighting teenage girl.

Harper Row/ Bluebird

Harper Row was never Batgirl, but she fits in here with her vigilante friends. She's good with gadgets, has a cyberpunk aesthetic, and was fun to paint. She's wielding a taser rifle.

Kate Kane/ Batwoman

Kate was never Batgirl either, but I've thrown her in here with these bat-ladies. She is (of course) Bruce Wayne's cousin, and left the military for breaching 'don't ask, don't tell' regulations. She is a very tough individual. I am happy with her signature blood red colour. I think the shiny batsuit came out pretty well, also.
