Return of Zombie Jesus

Share

I'm not sure if there's a limit on art submissions so until I hear otherwise I'm just gonna keep trucking along with new art for you all =D

This was a poster I created right before San Diego Comic Con this past year. It's based off of Kris Wilson's annual Easter comic and I thought we needed a poster to celebrate even more.

All done in flash and photoshop, the longest part of this whole piece was deciding on the catch phrase at the bottom. If you really like it you can still get it over at the store.

BTW, thank you all for the kind words and votes, I appreciate them truly!

UNDEAD AND READY TO ROCK.

There's no limit on art submissions, only the amount that you can submit each day (4). Just thought you might want to know that.

As for the submission itself, it is in a nutshell self-defeating. As in for certain aspects (like Jesus' face and the clouds) you've shown some semblance of form as well as an unconventional but effective way of expressing it.

However, the minute the eye snakes away from those few aspects and moves on to others, well, it completely throws the picture off whack. Which is a shame, really, because you've certainly shown some skill.

Otherwise, as a few other misc. details, choosing a white border for the tagline (which is a great line, by the way) was a terrible choice and makes it an eyesore to read, which isn't helped by the white spattering within the text itself.

There's promise, but it's easily held back by laziness. You've managed to do pretty well with the Cyanide and Happiness style regardless, so well done with that.

Especially since I've always considered Zombie Jesus to be one of CaH's weaker running gags.

ShawnCoss responds:

I appreciate the straight forwardness of your critique, it's refreshing! We were going to go a more detailed route for the overall image but wanted to still keep the simplistic look of the c&h style. So it was a bit of a give and take.

Regardless, I personally liked how it turned out myself but that's because I like zombie stuff and I'm self centered. =D
