Incubus-isms

This is going to be a series, I can tell.
In fact I'll be updating this post quite often with new images as I make them.

Incubus! Love 'em or hate 'em (don't be hatin'!), they are one of the few bands in the world who have made it big, yet haven't sold out.

This post is rather sentimental I guess, in that Incubus was one of the first bands I cut my teeth (ears, rather?) on. These images are basically reinterpretations of a couple of their songs, Pistola and A Certain Shade of Green taken off A Crow Left of the Murder and S.C.I.E.N.C.E respectively.

Here's a superb acoustic version of A Certain Shade of Green. Enjoy!

It's Blitz!

A Yeah yeah yeah's poster, coming your way!

It's blitz has been out for awhile now and I really quite like it. Granted, it's a shocking departure from the usual raw sound that Zinner, O and Chase cut their teeth on (Art Star, anyone?) but it's nice to actually hear Karen's voice for a change.
Prowling YouTube, I stumbled on some rather unusual YYY videos; They are short... er... films, based on each of the band members, titled The Scientist, The Philosopher and The Black Widow.
Either way, I hadn't seen them before, and that pretty much gave me the idea for this poster.

Alrighty, that's all from me. My exams finish up in a couple of days, and I'm gonna get back to them books.
Oh joy.

Coo, linkage!

Leveson Chronicles #3

We just got our hands on a Rockband instrument pack... yeah 'nuff said; I'm going back to play.

I just keep churning 'em out

Another 2 posters... Enjoy!

Edit(11/06/09):
Check out the artists in the 2nd poster. They are masters of ambient music.
Milosh, Deastro, Ben Benjamin.

Bomb them walls

I don’t know about you, but I absolutely love Graffiti. It lights up an otherwise dull wall or piece of architecture that nobody would have noticed anyway.

Sticker art, while not on the same level as full scale wall bombing, is still a brilliant alternative. I hadn’t noticed this before but all over my neighbourhood are nifty pieces of sticker art. Coincidentally, there’s a picture of a kraken (squid, rather) on our back wall! (The Kraken is our house mascot; Needless to say we are all impressed by our friendly neighbourhood bomber.)

One month later...

Hello!
I'm still alive and kicking; One year older though, but still hanging in there.

A simple painting is all I have for you today.

Leveson Chronicles #2

This one might do well with an explanation.

We spontaneously bought Risk yesterday afternoon and spent the rest of the day trying to achieve world domination. Emphasis on trying; It wasn't easy.

I had control of North America, and in a bid to capture South America I sent something like fifteen troops into Peru, which was being held by Andy.

In a spectacular run of bad luck (The Bay of Peru Fiasco, The Peruvian Massacre, call it what you want.) all my men were killed, nay slaughtered by three Peruvian scamps. That's right, three. Do the math, my men outnumbered them one-to-five!

I didn't even win the territory in the end; One cheeky punk refused to die, so I had to retreat to nurse the wounds of war and remove all knowledge of that event from the history books.

So very very disappointed (and I still think those dice were loaded. I'm onto you guys.)

Onto the drawing part of things, all these "Leveson Chronicles" updates are meant to be drawn in a really sketchy and fast style. Unlike the more detailed ones, these take a nice couple of hours to finish so I usually wind up completing them, and not relegating them to my 'to be continued' folder.

It should be noted that whatever goes into said folder is hardly ever heard or seen again. Don't blame me, blame my attention span.
