2 Men on a Bench is NOT finished. In classic Elliot fashion, I took on something WAY too ambitious and now it’s going to affect my all freaking schedule. Oops.
Goal for "vector-ish style"? Isolating figure-make him stand out and look “hyper” realistic from a snapshot or slice of everyday life. Adding burn filter Noise. (That's good, make sure to state that in your MPI.)
Idea: crescendo: Conglomerate of central evil characters, Samurai, umbrella like a movie poster. (Good)
(Is there Some way to have the the veil "broken" and see them? Interact? Climax? )
(Mainly: make it personal? Change the thrust from "depiction" to meaning? Why did you choose this? Why is it important to you? You don't have to tie it up with a moral bow, in fact that's the easy way out, just ask these questions for now and I know it will come- youre so deep and creative!! Just be realistic about time when promising to make the monsters better! I have heard a LOT of promises from you but I don't want you to wait till the last minute :)
This is what I had time for. Am I proud of it? Yes. Is it exactly what I wanted? No. Not my best piece, definitely, but at least it’s a positive piece that shows a triumph in spiritual warfare. Unfortunately, I really want to make two more pieces and I have very little time. Included are thumbnails for those two pieces.
There’s two ways to go about this one… well three, actually, and this times I’m going to be very thorough about describing what it is I’m doing here. This is the most personal piece I’ve made in this whole project, and judging by how cool the chalk one was, that seems to be a good strategy. My first idea is less personal, but plays with the themes in a more clear way. I’ve been trying to convey how the spiritual world feels significantly greater in purpose, value, and conflict through the juxtaposition between physical reality and comics. Sometimes that means the comic world is supposed to look flat, being physical reality, or sometimes it’s supposed to highlight the larger than life nature of spiritual happenings, being spiritual. In this concept, I’m trying to clearly represent how the impact of the spiritual world feels to someone who can’t put it to words. Sometimes it feels insane to think an unseen force is attacking you, but it is an undeniable truth when you, and only you,...
