E portrait was excellent and all the swirling birds made it really beautiful. It must be just me but in my mind I saw some nude chicks coming out of his head among the birds just like they did in that Freud-drawing. Of course in tasty jugend-style.
you're right, it must be you, perverted! ;D
Goddamn right it's a beautiful day!

 This is my current best. I knocked it up in about 20 minutes. I'll scan it later. Have a guess

Jungle Telegraph? I would have gone with monkeys and giraffes and shit.

Nice though.

I was thinking that, but I liked the idea of a telegraph pole obstructing the jungle. I also can draw monkeys....

This sounds fun. I've been planning out an animated visual for the whole Electroshock-Blues album for some time now, but I won't be able to begin that until I get the resources needed.

Now to cook up an idea. brb lol xoxoxo

EDIT: Would I be allowed to illustrate a song from his solo career?

EDITEDIT: Nevermind, I'd never be able to get it finished in the minimal amount of free time I have. Sorry.

I don't know if this is even classed as 'illustrated lyrics' or I have just actually painted the lyrics but whatever,  I'm running out of time to finish these pictures...  and I also apologise for having blabbed about my final show for ages :')

Basically,  This is my 'Daisies of the Galaxy' picture so far...     I painted it onto a vinyl   (scratched, incase you were worried. From a car boot fair, It look like a cat had been tap dancing on it!)



The word 'Daisies' is made up of little petals and whatnot but my phone camera is naff so you can't really tell.    I like it so far but I don't think it's finished and I'm not sure what to do to it  :/    I want to keep it relatively simple but I think it just looks a bit unfinished at the moment  :')     Any ideas are welcome   :)

Haha,  I wouldn't dare!!   I don't know what it was,  nout special :')

or maybe that one on the S in the middle.

I've just painted a little daisy at the top and the bottom of the text with a couple of petals falling off them...   I might do a full flower on the D though,  I like that idea  :)

Looks pretty cool.

Also, this made my night after a terrible shift at work -

What if you added a pop of color? I really like the petals, maybe adding yellow to replicate a daisy?

This is exactly what my tutor said to me today...  after I'd put it on the wall...  and the show's tomorrow.

But here I am distracting myself from actually adding any colour to it and finishing it :')

Thankyou :)   the word 'daisies' stayed as it is there, I added a daisy to the top and bottom of the vinyl and I painted over all the other words in a rusty colour... Sounds lame but it looked alright... My friend bought it off me for a tenner too!  Bless him :')
