Creative Work That Doesn't Deserve A Thread - Detlef's Detlef edition - General

[QUOTE=Barnhouse;30027222]I always thought of that "fist" on the facepunch logo as a mouth. like a D: face but with a stranger shaped mouth. or like the face is dead hence the x eyes, and his mouth is hanging open because he's dead.[/QUOTE] I know right, just realised it's supposed to be a fist and it blew my mind.

Still no computer to paint on, boredom is starting to really dig in. sketched a skull or something [img]http://i.imgur.com/Wm5HR.jpg[/img]

[URL=http://imgur.com/GJGzE][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/GJGzEl.jpg[/IMG][/URL] WIP mainly to practice anatomy specifically at a perspective. Also I didn't intend to cut off the sides I just starting drawing really big :v:

[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;30026073]you don't have to apply grunge textures to everything you do rusty[/QUOTE] That's how Rusty works. First it was glossy gloss gloss. Now it's grungy grunge grunge.

Well movie poster grunge doesn't quite work as an album cover that isn't based on movie songs.

How is it exactly movie poster grunge? What separates music album grunge from movie poster grunge? Or any grunge for that matter. Because that just sounds like bullshit to me. [editline]24th May 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;30030731] Anyways, can anyone give me a hand with this? [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4861882/Facepunch/colla.png[/img] I hate how the colors are working together with the background. I need it to be something with a texture, to apply the colors on, but god fucking damn does it look hideous with what I tried so far. Smoke, stars, clouds, they all look awful and stuff that should go to dA. :saddowns: And it looks just as bad (or worse) on b&w: [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4861882/Facepunch/colla2.png[/img] Fuck, I really don't know how to make this better at this point...[/QUOTE] Stop skewing shit, it doesn't look good. Try making everything horizontal.

[QUOTE=strider;30031280]How is it exactly movie poster grunge? What separates music album grunge from movie poster grunge? Or any grunge for that matter. Because that just sounds like bullshit to me.[/QUOTE] I think what he's trying to say is that Rusty is taking his style of making movie posters and using it for creating album covers, and that that doesn't work. Not just the grunge itself. Which I sorta agree with, at least maybe dropping the beige and putting in a stronger background colour might've looked better.

[QUOTE=strider;30031280]How is it exactly movie poster grunge? What separates music album grunge from movie poster grunge? Or any grunge for that matter. Because that just sounds like bullshit to me. [/QUOTE] It's not movie poster grunge specifically, it's just rustys famous movie poster grunge.

[QUOTE=strider;30031280]Stop skewing shit, it doesn't look good. Try making everything horizontal.[/QUOTE] More like; stop skewing shit in different directions causing crashes with the way our eyes are lead.

Just make everything horizontal I'm tellin' ya.

[QUOTE=strider;30034136]Just make everything horizontal I'm tellin' ya.[/QUOTE] I think he should just make something else because that would be pretty fucking extremely boring to look at.

[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;30034761]Yeah, I tried it :frown: It's a shame, I liked the oh lord everything's blurry and shiny and overexposed thing but it came out real bad [editline]24th May 2011[/editline] Also the fact that everything I do on Photoshop is always minimalistic and stuff. I wanted to deviate a bit[/QUOTE] Throwing shit at the background doesn't change the fact that there is hardly any elements there.

You could just make it simpler like: [img]http://i.cubeupload.com/rZfd1g.png[/img]

Inspired by Rusty's stuff obviously, though I couldn't figure out an easy to do a good grunge effect in Illustrator. I could do it in Photoshop, but I would prefer it to be scalable.

I don't think that works tbh

It's genius. The fact that the chapel tops play out as fangs makes it fun to look at.

Changed a few things, definitely getting it printed. [IMG]http://kalebalfadda.tumblr.com/photo/1280/5829632845/1/tumblr_llqxzeBMYG1qfvi16[/IMG] [QUOTE=Autumn;30041119]did you make it? (also, you're not the titty king :frown:)[/QUOTE] Yes. and Yes.

did you make it? (also, you're not the titty king :frown:)

What wow holy shit why would you use firerains title when you're not firerain.

[QUOTE=kabookie;30041050]Yes. and Yes.[/QUOTE] are you sure? because i tineyed it and it came up 4 times... and no. you are not the titty king. [editline]25th May 2011[/editline] also, generally it's not a good idea to edit your previous message when responding to a question, because when New Post pops up it won't show it.

Firerain bought it for me apparently, or someone. Like I would waste money on a title. The image was scanned from that physical copy of Vogue I have, then I changed some things. What kind of question is that? Do you think I did photography for vogue? Let alone in the 1950's?

[QUOTE=kabookie;30041332]Firerain bought it for me apparently, or someone. Like I would waste money on a title.[/quote] okay now i'm convinced you're a liar. and an idiot for thinking we would believe you. [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19936378/liar.png[/img] [editline]25th May 2011[/editline] and i was questioning it because i've never seen you post here (but then i'm not here that often) and it seemed like quite a nice piece of work. but i looked on your facebook and i believe you now. [editline]25th May 2011[/editline] you're still a liar about the title though :v:

I never in my life have spent a penny on Facepunch. I rarely browse or post, I really don't care if you believe me or not, i'm not here because of my title. and you say "we" believe you like you're in some cult or something.
