some fun with strumpet

[ThingInABook]

dunno if this is in the right section.

i just wanted to do a logotype for strumpet, just because the first line screams 'make an icon! make an icon!'

the fun thing about this is that i can still make more variations... even a lino cut version. the jagged edges would make it look nifty.

[holden]

pretty cool! that'd be a nice, graphic single cover, esp. with the RiverRun era underworld typography. Alas, given the skribble and barking artwork, i think we're in for color swatches over b&w contrast.

[ThingInABook]

yea, i can make a color variation... let me pick it up in the 'noon :)

[ThingInABook]

finally real life has given me some release and i actually did a color version of the icon... but it turned into something else:

mixed media over cardboard, 30x70cms

wow nice work!

That is fantastic. We've had fan remixes here before but I havent seen fan artwork (well, cd covers for the compilations/remixes) before. If Underworld release this as a single, it would make great cover art :)

Great work! I love it.

[ThingInABook]

thanks guys... i would love to do more stuff :)

what about an icon collection, you know, u/w has great concepts to make images out of them

and once again, i did something that got out of control.

i wanted to draw something human, because it has been quite a long time since i've picked up a pencil. then, this. kind of grafittish.

I get excited when you tweet about painting and whatnot because it always ends so beautifully. Very nice - and inspiring, too!

i did the other part this week. sorry for the ultimately bad pic, my camera has been acting quite wonky.

[Dunwho]

[ThingInABook]
