It's another dump-and-go Im affraid :C I still can't afford to buy a new computer.

Right.. So I finally got around to makeing some cover art to go along with the promo-cd we pass around when asking for gigs. I got the idea from J-qb's Fashion Bear. So thanks for that one bro :P Crits appreciated, especially if somebody knows of a front that could replace the one used for the song titles, Im not very happy with it as it is.

birch std or onyx (small caps) could do the trick. Otherwise; some of these just scream blues.

Ahh.. Yes, they should do. Thanks, it seems like a pretty sweet site.

Sooo.. Designschool is sweet.. No doubt, but some of the stuff we are being put through is a bit.. stiff.. For the last two weeks he have been working with basic composition. The following post will show how that is done around here. All of these are done by hand and took a ridicilus amount of time to make concidering what they are :P

Like the first, but slightly different..

I rather like this one..

I bet you hate rulers now.

Those are both ridiculously simple and complicated. I'm fully surprised that you haven't beaten your head against the desk out of sheer boredom by now. However, I'm sure there's a perfectly decent explanation for putting you through all that drawing.

Spaaaaaaaam

That and rules. There where a very specific set of rules we had to follow.. But it graduatley got more and more loose as we went along.

Well if I had been sitting home alone and done these then yes I would surely have bashed my own head in by now. But luckily I am sitting with some hillarious people and generaly have a real good time :)

will this ever end?

it will.. But not right now..

I see you liike doing these. It's nice to let your mind relax with projects like these. They look good! The layering of the lines in some of these is where it gets iffy. Once it gets to 3 or 4 it gets too messy and busy. Try to do one on a larger scale, see how far you can go with it. Those are my two cents. :)

On some weird level it has been enjoyable, but I would never have done anything like this if it wasn't assigned to me. The spaceing between the lines could be better, but trust me, it is really, really hard to do. There are some girls who are insanely good at this though..

Woops.. Wrong smiley on that last one. It should have been a happy one :P

Last one for now. The 4 respones per thread per half hour is killing me :P
Perhaps I need to upload this to the art portal. The original is quite large..

these are great!!!
I love the cross hatching and abstract composition.

YOu should upload these to the art portal!!!
THey are good!

I think you definitely need to upload this to the portal. My guess would be that you had to implement the striping very strictly initially which allowed you to put it to use in stuff like this one. They are so clever those teachers...

Yeah.. Scheming bastards.. Always with a secret agenda :P

Cubes and angry shaman-ish people..

This was made for an illustration class. The product was a cd-cover and the theme was frogs.

Seeing you post all this stuff is making me want to get in art school...

I dont really like the fonts you used on this one, especially the yellow is a bit icky...
Also, herons are marvellous birds, you didnt really manage to capture that... hes a bit flat and all...
Also layoutwise, Im not too fond of this one, its a bit boring.

Cubes and shaman

this one is nice. I think you could have made the "grinding against his face" part more convincing if you had him bend his head away from the cubes, at the moment its like he is pushing his head against the cubes. Another thing that could help is if you changed his mouth a bit so that it is ( > shaped rather than ( ), as if he is pulling away from the cubes...

Sorry for being so harsh, but I know you can take it rite?

I like it, would make a fine cd-cover, the !!'s ruin it though.

These things are pretty cool, the ones with one big circle are more interesting.

It's a hell of a good time, but it is not art school, it's design ;)

You are probably roght about that yeah..

Well, here is were we differ a bit. My first drawing was a very elegant and realistic heron - but it wasn't intersting enough, and it didn't emphazie that the heron was the bad guy in a proper way. So I decided to go typical danish "children's book style", and I think it works. And I think the pyramid composition is dynamic. But yeah, layoutwise it is kindda boring.

This is in reality the bastard child of a random drawing of a face I made and then a bunch of cubes and cylinders and stuff I had to draw for a class. The thought was more that the cubes were attacing them self to his face than hitting it. But I see what you mean. I could just change the title :P

Sorry for being so harsh, but I know you can take it rite?

I wouldn't have it any other way :)

It is a bit too plain, like J-qb mentioned. But I do rather like it. You are right about the !!-signs. They don't work..

I like the tree tall ones the most. But yeah, othervise the ones with big circles work best..

New stuff :)

Woah man! this is beautiful, medium/s? The stuff you come up with is quite fascinating. Also I just realised that most of those pattern things have large circles.

5am 5am 5am 5am 5am :S!!
