Well, it's not the greatest, but here's my little poster.
Warcraft - the soul sucker of all videogames.

CD Cover Design

Artist: Demonic Futility
Album: Bleeding Cries of the Succubi
Theme: Demon/Darkness/Hell
Genre: Death Metal

Out of my recent new obsession with succubi, a form of female demon who seduces, rapes and siphons the souls of mortal men, I have decided to do a general demonic theme for my album cover. Color scheme follows a general red/orange/yellow, purple/violet/magenta/blue/grey, and of course black. I've decided to give myself a rating of four. The succubus, our main subject, is dedicating herself to the use of negative space as well as her face following the rule of thirds, the main text "Demonic Futility" and "Succubi" follow the rule of thirds, the color scheme is visually appealing, the cover is dedicated to its theme and finally, the use of contrast - a burning flare on the left, with a mysterious black on the right, using the Succubus to divide the contrast. The eyes on the right stand out because of its juxtaposition to black while the burning hand on the left blends in more with its background, sharing a close array of colors. My band name kicks ass as well as its album name. And this is why I rate my cover a fervent four.

Learning Blog Post #11

I'm working on a Warcraft poster for my Visual Balance activity.
For my CD cover, I'll just do a spoof of an already made album by Lamb of God or Tool or whatever.
I'm starving...
... Maybe some fries or something.
Not sure.
Anyways, I have an idea for possibly creating Warcraft sprites - which could also lead to being contributed to the game assignment at the end of the course. I'm really excited about that.
Well, here's my latest custom Pokemon sprite I made a few days ago.
Tell me what you think.
Anyways, five minutes and I'm going home for food and a little bit of World of Warcraft.
Farewell,
Bleed.

Frozen Throne Patch 1.24_b

I guess I can't upload files... or I don't know how...but here's a download link...

Negative Space

Well... it seems there's a lot more to composition than I had thought.
I'll have to pay closer attention to detail when I create and edit.
Rather than focusing on the positive space, I'm going to look more at the negative space of an image to determine an appropriate balance. I really don't have much of a response for this, so I'm going to conclude my thought. Just another element to consider when editing.

Sincerely,
Bleed.

Learning Blog Post #10 / Landscape Edit

Well... to be honest, I didn't get that much accomplished this class.
Other than editing a landscape photo, catching up with an old friend and... I think that's it, really.
What fun?

Here's my edit:

Changed from dawn to night... threw in some random planet and poof. There you have it.

That's about it, really...
How much more will we explore with photo editing? I cannot say, because I am not Mr. Powell.
But I'm sure we'll do something a little more interesting soon enough.
I'm pretty curious to what our project is going to end up being.
Oh well. Class is almost over.

Farewell,
Bleed.

Hopefully I'll do them at home... meh...

But I'm excited for the gaming thing at the end of the semester...

Anyways... only a minute or so left...
So farewell..

Learning Blog Post #8

Well,
Today I edited a couple images in compliment to my assigned color theory assignment.
I've only completed two images, but I plan to finish the other three or so tomorrow, or perhaps during lunch after this class.
Regardless, I'll add the images to my last post when they're ready.
I also created a sprite during this class, suiting a complementary relationship of colors (purple and yellow, with a tiny detail of red). I'm very happy with the sprite and consider it a success.
With only one minute to spare, I will say my goodbyes.
So, farewell.

Bleed.

Color Theory Activity

I've edited a couple images to exemplify a couple color schemes.

First image: The butterfly cobras. This is a monochromatic scheme, considering it follows one color hue, and variates in value or shade.
My second image is Pyramid Head. I've given a purple, yellow and bronze-ish color scheme. His metal components being purple, while his skin a bronze, and finally, his robe portraying yellow. The rest is white and black. This could be considered a split-complementary relationship.
My third image is the beautiful necromorph slasher. I've given it a golden-yellow, light brown and a dull red color scheme. The bone mutations protruding from his hands are the brown, his general body being gold while his skull and upper chest cavity being red. This could be considered an anagolous color relationship.
My second necromorph - my holiday horror :3 - is a result of a complementary color relationship. Huzzah!


I'm nearly complete, with only two more images to complete. Citations will be posted shortly after.

Sincerely,
Bleed.
