Title: Trying a newish style
Post by: Cave Monster on 26 Jul 2005, 01:34: Missing Providence and playing with a new stylus. I have some imagery thats been floating in my head inspired mostly by Matt Chippendale's (of Lightning Bolt) silkscreen posters with their clashing colors and horror vacua(sp?).

Not where I want to go with it yet, but would love feedback.

That is my wallpaper now. I would love to see more art from you.

Second'd and second'd. Holy moly, I'm loving your comic as well. Phrenology and art school next to each other on the sign in the second comic had me restraining giggles as to not be heard by the boss.

Post by: salada on 08 Aug 2005, 04:14: that'd be super tricky to make into a threadless design, in it's current state: too many colours (i think the have a max of 4?)

cool, though.

Post by: Cave Monster on 09 Aug 2005, 04:25: I think this is a bit closer to what I'm going for.
Thanks for all the positive feedback, but what I could really use is some constructive critique.

Post by: salada on 09 Aug 2005, 05:05: nice, man.

i really like your character designs down the right, but i think they're sort of overpowered by the heavily patterned background. but then i'm one for strong graphic forms and clean lines, which doesnt seem to be the look you're going for.
