nice chippy.

Back cover of one of my favourite books, Zorba the Greek, pic of the sea masked over (alot of it talks about the ocean) and appropriate Cyrillic character.

emil · 11-02-2009, 15:57

Ahem. You meant Greek, right?

pat · 11-02-2009, 16:11

i meant greek indeed. Thought it was a greek cyrillic alphabet?

Pugsley · 11-02-2009, 16:16

Piss poor photo. Muking about with a stencil thing and a UV pen and torch.

I want to use this thread as way to get myself to actually start sketching again.
I stopped about a year ago, which is why I think I'm losing the passion i had for this stuff in the first place.

Rotuy · 11-02-2009, 19:06

I'm the same pugsley. This thread has really gave me back so much of what I've lost when my passion became my profession.

I actually did jack shit all day today because I was just doing various pieces including the one I posted earlier in the topic. Client rang just before the England game asking for progress and I found myself in a pretty awkward situation but the enjoyment of what I did today is something I've needed for a long time!

Nothing more enjoyable than just making art that YOU want to make. No pressure, no specifications, no changes, just what YOU want in there.

Love it!

You've done two for today. You're on form boyo!

Herr Kurm · 12-02-2009, 15:34

pat there is something very python-esque about those two.

These are two posters, for a campaign inspired by people who always moan about how dirty Bucharest is, but gladly dispose of their waste in the street, or never clean up after their pets.

Kerning is wrong at the moment, will fix it. Text reads: Bucharest, It's not the city's fault.

Toronto diner.
closed down last year, but I've always liked their sign.

pat · 12-02-2009, 16:53

nice emil and chips. Email, how do the illustrations look filled in? Might contrast less with the type?

One more collage for today, churning them out at the mo:

Pugsley · 12-02-2009, 17:04
