The pics thread

That looks fucking awesome to me. I need to read it

So, I'm really into this printmaking/monotype class. Here's a low-quality pic of the one I did today. It is three different prints all on top of one another, technically.

The first layer was the blood, painted with alizarin crimson ink; I also used my handprints as you can probably see, then smudged here and there. The next layer is a reductive monotype screened on top of the original 'blood' layer; it was based around scrawls and scribblings with subtle knife shapes. On top, I opted for a straight-up butcher knife, which was a mylar stencil-like piece inked blue/grey and given the mineral spirit treatment to cut away some of the ink for an industrial, gritty feel.

You're doing album covers for me. Ok?

I think I can see a goatse in there.

Really cool Andy.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Thanks sir!

Looks like an Ichorous cover...

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Unintentional, but it's probably just the way I work. That's physical media though, whereas all of my cover arts have basically just been done digitally.

 

[waif]

Use it. There's even space in the middle that isn't already blood red to put the logo.

 

[divine_torture]

That is brutal, dude. Once I get my slammyness going, I'm stealing that. Lulz.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

I can make slammier stuff in PS at some point if you need.

 

[divine_torture]

That'd be cool. I just need to learn how to use iDrum effectively. I'm a musician, so art like that is not for me. If I did something half that cool I'd feel like a god. It'd be easier with someone who can do drum programming for me. Ugh.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

I can, but you need to play at one tempo for an entire song, or some kind of multiple of it.

Nice Picture man, i took art at school but we never did cool stuff like that.

Hows about some real recorded drumming? I own both an acoustic and an electronic set, I could record easily from my electronic kit, what kind of music do you play?

I'm an art student, like at a university so I'm taking classes (such as this printmaking class, colloquially termed "Monotyping") in studio art and graphic design.

That'd be alright, but do you think it'd get boring for slam?

Slam, but I always write black metal shit too.
