Hey cool, i done a few experiments similar to this..though being a poor student i used food colouring instead of using up my precious supply of ink

yea... i didnt really like the pen&ink sessions so i figured i might as well put this india ink to some use since i probably wont touch again anytime soon

i did notice that indeed, all the lines around it look like wind blasts, as if it had hit extremely hard. i like this alot.

i had this in abstract but i got a note from the admin saying this wasnt abstract and that this deviation had been moved to scraps

so yea.. no idea where this would belong

The smoky effect and the fist make me think of the stop smoking adverts (passive smoking kills)! It would make a very powerful campaign piece.

wow, nice idea, is that ink in water?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

meemo In reply to Frog3D [2007-07-09 21:53:38 +0000 UTC]

yup. black india ink. 1 drop in 4.2litre water, 1 diffuser, 1 flash + softscreen and the watercontainer was on top of a lighttable.

great, did it take you a long time to setup?

meemo In reply to Frog3D [2007-07-09 23:54:33 +0000 UTC]

well the setup itself didnt take too long, maybe 20min or so but ink in water is always a bit of luck for obvious reasons so until i got this exact ink drop photographed in this exact way so i didnt have to alter the shape in post processing took me a couple hours of trial and error
