bane Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Heres another cover I've finished, this one was for me. I love the simplicity of the cover, the shadows, Batman creeping in the background, the use of black, white & orange is quite striking. Simple but effective.

excelsior1986 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Nice. I remember buying this book when i was younger and absolutely loving the cover. I think you captured the mood of the cover very well. Great work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Troll King Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 My photography has become my medium of choice again and if anyone is interested you can check out some of my work on my Flickr account at www.flickr.com/dwshoots You can log into Flickr using Yahoo, Gmail, or Facebook account info without actually having to create an account. Mind you, the reason you have to log in is because I should also state, my Flickr account is NSFW. Let me know what you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the simplicity of the cover, the shadows, Batman creeping in the background, the use of black, white & orange is quite striking. Simple but effective. I like your covers. It seems that you use no tools? I would grab a compass and some stencils from the store. It will help you and the difference is night and day. Also do you rush your letterings? Your art looks good but the letterings/circling looks like they were done too quick and careless. I am not being negative. Just giving tips. Keep up the good work. Anyone here a graduate of Ringling school of art and design? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still struggling with a couple of issues of calibration between what I'm using as a monitor and how they appear on other sources. I'm about to buy an IPC monitor though that displays over a billion colors and has been pre-calibrated for photography. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone here a graduate of Ringling school of art and design? No tools, all free hand. Yeah I do suck at lettering. Only recently have I been using a ruler and that has been getting better, but circles are a pain. I'm trying to track down some technical drawing tools to help with that.

DId you have to do much editing to get what you wanted on the print? That's part of my problem. Since I'm using a 42" plasma TV as a monitor at the moment they colors always looks nice and vivid n the TV but look flat and drab (even the black and whites) when I print them or view them on other devices. My new monitor will help tremendously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Troll King Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Imve got the Pixma 9000 with 8 different inkwells and I'm letting photoshop manage color but until I resolve my monitor situation it will continue to be a struggle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hibou Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 I hadn't picked up the pencils in years but last weekend broke the drought and it felt good. This one is from a good seven or eight years ago. Beautiful work and a fellow Great War historian/fan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
