Very nicely made, but don't you think it's a bit too demonic for them?

| Well, there's the flames, and the eyes look sort of fiery too. |

very cool... but yeah... sort of dark... but hey... isn't that what is 'cool' day. It isn't like the good ol' days of prog with exotic landscapes and pretty flowers inner discovery and all that hippy sh*t haha. ------------- The Pedro and Micky Experience - When one no longer requires psychotropics to trip |

Except for the very very odd Matt Bellamy, all I have to say is: wow. ------------- http://www.formspring.me/Aragorn224" rel="nofollow - Trendsetter win! The search for nonexistent perfection. |

Great! I find it to be very much in the spirit of Muse. RE the devilish aspect, well of course - they did sell their souls to the devil for mainstream success, didn't they? If in doubts, give The Resistance a listen then look it up in the charts

Hehe. Nah, Muse have been in the mainstream for years, they just happen to make less good music now. Take a Bow comes to mind when I look at that poster though. Nice job! ------------- And lo, the mighty riffage was played and it was good

Yes - but the masses think it's by far their greatest success! This must be the work of the dark side... |

I changed it a little bit, and I upped a smaller picture because I found the last size overwhelming.

Thanks man. Unfortunately I'm just as desperate as you are. Keep getting your work out there, and keep building a portfolio. Email labels, bands, musicians, etc and eventually you'll get some takers. All I'm trying to do right now is build a very diverse and dynamic portfolio that demonstrates a variety of skill sets. I do this for fun, mostly, and I haven't gotten that many paying jobs. The best part is working for bands I love, though, and I've been insanely lucky in that area. Don't be afraid to work for free, just to get your name out there. Good luck!  ------------- http://www.facebook.com/pages/Dr-Neil-Kobrin/244687105562746" rel="nofollow - SUPPORT MY FATHER AND BECOME A FAN Jacob Kobrin Illustration |

| I find the kaleidoscope aesthetic to be a nice touch. Heck, even Belamy's face looks cool, but I would personally tone the flames down just a pinch. Other then that, nice job! |

btw that Muse poster was well created but I did not like the red colours dominating making it look like hell. -------------

You mean to make a year calendar of all collages? (2011)
Sound like a good idea! but I haven't be able to sell any copy of the collages in a while specially the few last ones( 12x18 for 25 Dollars). I don't have any money to invest and I am not sure if the fans will buy it!!
 with the exception of you! thanks...  ------------- http://darksideofcollages.blogspot.com/ http://www.metalmusicarchives.com/ https://www.facebook.com/pages/Darksideof-Collages/ |
