Been working on some things.

Posted by Scott  Published in Design/Art, Noteworthy, Writing

A friend of mine and myself are working on a web comic. We are setting it up and working on the art of the comic. The title will be Thoughts of a Simple Man. The premise is about a guy who works in a graphic production department and talks to a talking mouse that hangs out around his desk. The mouse may be real may be a delusion, no one knows. A sample of the type of art is located here. Feel free to comment and suggest.

I’d buy this album…..

Posted by Scott  Published in Design/Art

I like this meme, because it is simple and lets me be creative as well. The rules are easy to follow and there are only three.

First go Follow this link.
The first article title on the page is the name of your band.

Then go to this link.
The last four words of the very last quote is the title of your album.

Lastly go to this link.
The third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

Using your favorite graphics program combine these three elements to design your album cover and post the result.

It couldn’t be easier. Have fun I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

Here is my new band, hope you all like it.

What I do when I’m bored at work

Posted by Scott  Published in Design/Art

Not to bad considering the dumbed down editing tools they had on the site. No timeline so it made it hard to sync up the sound with the photos but I think it can out ok.

Making of Frodo in Photoshop

Posted by Scott  Published in Design/Art

Ok I’m good in photoshop, but I’m no where near this good. Some people just amaze me with their talent. This is definitely one of those times.

“Hope all of you remember frodo in the movie “Lord of the Rings” if yes, then read the making of frodo from that inspirational movie.”

Fantastic Four fan makes “The Thing” costume out of real rock!

Posted by Scott  Published in Design/Art

Wow, this guy did a great job but does he have any kind of life? I think not. Even so, it is a very cool concept and even better execution.

“This is a costume my friend made for last years comic convention in Toronto, he won two awards for it. It weighed about 110lbs. It was a big hit there, he was the star of the show when he walked into the convention.”

    Friday, Thank God

    Posted by Scott  Published in Design/Art, Noteworthy

    I’ve had a very good week over all. Got my review at work and I was surprised at how well it went, seeing as my boss has a habit of making my life miserable here. He is also moving me to salary, I’m thankful for that cause it means the woman that I work with, that I loath, will have less ammo to use against me. She constantly uses my time card as ammo. My boss tells me not to punch out when I leave, because on most nights I receive calls at home etc. She uses this to turn the other workers against me when they aren’t making 40 hours in a week. So I feel like a huge burden has been lifted, plus it is the first time in my life that I haven’t had to punch a time card. I finished a special edition cover for work, and I like it. I’m not sure if that is what they were looking for but it is only the first version so I have an idea for a couple of others just in case. I’ll include it after a LJ cut below. So I will also do my make up post later today after I do some online stuff for a friend of mine. I’m looking forward to the NFL draft tomorrow and my friend Phil is calling again tomorrow night so we can discuss what happened during the draft. Well thats all for now, I’ll post more later.

    Here is the Special cover, let me know what you think.
