Quick album cover I whipped up in about an hour for a self-motivated music project I'm working on.

Drawing up the face took most of the time; for the text that spells "8064" I just looked online for a font that I edited to make work for this (called "Archer Flat") -- the bottom font I made as a cross between the "Atari Kids" font and one of the fonts on a Koto album:http://www.dragonslairfans.com/music/koto.jpg

Started off as a silly drawing I made in class, because, welll, precalc sucks.  http://img.removedfromgame.com/imgs/SCAN0001%20(2).jpg

I see where you were going with the chin.  The form is just a bit too wonky though I think

 heh, thanks!  Looks like some experimentation on my end turned out to be successful :)  Perhaps I need to try something a bit more technically advanced with a similar style sometime over this weekend.

 Very cool, this style is very interesting! This deserves to be spray painted onto a wall so more people can see it. FAVED !

 Thanks! :)  As for the chin, I tried to make it as unrealistic as possible, because I thought it would add a bit of flair -- even more so with the highly contrasting orange and blue, which are two of my favorite clashing colors.  I tried to have the orange contrast greatly to really make the eyes/earrings/text stand out :)

 

As for music, you're about half-right -- I'm working on making some chiptune spacesynth tracks :) Trying something that I don't think many (or really anyone) has tried before.

Cool! Attracts attention. Not too shure about the chin.

Do you make spacesynth?
