Description Originally was going to be called: The Birth of Fear

This is a tribute to the UK Prog.Metal band "Biomechanical"
I wanted to enter their world. I was also listening to 'Biomechanical' during this creation.

You will see that these fetus's look similar, different in colour yes, twins they are.


Arise of fear, no spawn of mine
Diseased, unamed, unleashed, alive

Turn my head to face another direction
Everlasting pain of a hollow deception
Can you tell me how to rid this infection?
All the time I feel it tearing within me
Parasitic vengence rising before thee
Can you feel it growing, feeding inside me?

Dont forgive me now

I thought I had fallen in fear
Dissapeared, though so near
Beneath the darkness forever
[Biomechanical]

John asked me, before Biomech went on tour early this year, if they could show it to the fans..
Its a real honour, and still overwhelms me when i think about it.

thank you for your kind comments

I can't seem to find a thing technically wrong with this, and I can be a picky bitch

It's disturbing with those little ones in there like that, and I think you've captured what you were after. You keep getting more unique and stronger with each piece at this point.

well this past week i had a bunch of extra hours(which my paycheck will love) because one of my coworkers has been having to deal with her grandmothers failing health. I'm glad to help her out and all, but i've been fucking exhausted this past week.

the power cords into their heads need a little work... blend them a little better. also the cord between them stands out a little (unless thats what you meant to do?) but besides that it's good. nice work

izilla [2007-01-23 02:20:28 +0000 UTC]

Nice. I love the text and the background. The chords going into their heads doesn't look that convincing though. Maybe try to do sometime similar to what you did with the smaller chords in their back?

It might just be me but are their bottoms and part of their backs cut off? I'm not familiar with fetuses so I wouldn't really know.

Otherwise, another nice piece from you. The blending's done smoothly and the monotone works once again. Keep up the good work man.

No fetus's was harmed during the making of this art. ...lol
just a little digital drawing and blurring.

yeah i believe im getting addicted to monotone, it works wonders in the final production.

thanks again for commenting bro!
