A few finished pieces of mine

[chris narcosis]

I hope I'm not jumping the gun here by posting before introducing myself. I can't seem to find an intro thread. I'm Chris anyway, I illustrate freelance in Leeds UK. Hope you like my work, some old and new here.

FANTOMAS MELVINS BIG BAND

[Stoat]

Hm. Not sure what to make of these.

The first one is a bit vertiginous, like Photoshop Brushes Gone Wild. I'm having a hard time giving it a fair eyeball. The second looks like a doctored Mucha print -- which might be totally unfair to say, but somehow I think if you went to the labor of drawing all of that you wouldn't step on it tonally that way. I like the third one, though, so maybe I'm being too hard on the first two.

May I say, at any rate, that Narcosis is about the coolest last name I ever heard? Please tell me you were born with it.

[chris narcosis]

Haha no I wasn't born with it. It's the name of a band I was in and it kinda stuck with me so I still use it. I draw all by hand (including the 2nd) and vectorised some elements. The repetition on the 1st image was this image below copied and repeated:

Shoot. I was hoping you were Greek or something. I had a friend who had her last name legally changed to Thunder. And another one to Startling. Really, they both would've been more at home in the DippyAirhead family.

Sorry for casting aspersions on image #2. It just seemed an awful lot of work to render that dark. Of course, this old tube monitor might have something to do with it.

[chris narcosis]

Haha, maybe I should. People I know in the UK seem to call me that much more than my surname. There's a guy local to me called 'Megatron' and one called 'Scum' too, both legally changed...

No worries about image 2 man, all comments appreciated. It is quite dark though, I get you. It had to be made lighter for print!
