Spumc-O-Latern!




Stimp-O-Lantern to be precise

Ok. I pretty much left the crappy compostion as is for this one and tried to concentrate on the colors. However, I did try to punch up the foreground characters' sillhouettes a bit. In the orginal SHrek looks like a sack of potatoes (does he ever not?)

I thought I'd try to redesign some of the horrible posters John K posted but try to use the same concept they were meant to portray.






Here's a Shrek poster where they are actually scared of the flame-spewing dragon.
I took the idea of the poster at face value. I know in the movie they befriend the dragon and that's why someone decided to make them all smile in the original. However, If that's the case my friends don't usually show flames at my ass when we go jogging. (i usually shoot fire at their asses because they're so slow).
Of course i tried to keep everything off center. In fact they all seem to be running from it. Heh. I'm still working on the colors. You can probably tell I'm into garish colors.

I got a couple other ideas for reworking this one. So hopefully I'll have a functioning color scheme by then. But hey, that's what this is all about. actually challenge oneself and putting some thought into the design, the exact opposite of the originals that were shat out in 0.2 seconds.

Killer?



I just don't get why the V drops about 3/4 into the video.

Experimental Printmaster


I was screwing around with the levels adjustment layer on my latest comic when I accidentally came out this this aged comic-book effect. Thought i'd share. You can see on the penciling which in some parts looks like a bad print job and 3-D printing all in one!
