Description Fullview plase!

Edit: Changed the upper left border of the book.

Really too late to call so we wait for it
Morning to wake you is all we got
To know me as hardly golden
To know me all wrong they were

This is a political stament, turned into grunge art and a texture massacre. I love those colors.

Why do you have a Post Korean war aircraft in a Korean war photo?

Actually, this is a stock photo. I don't know much about the planes there. But interesting that you mentioned that!

hi bro, awesome piece
but a slight point of bother is the historical fact behind it.. cause the sun you're using over there is actually the Japanese war flag and not a recognised symbol of either South or North Korea xD

just thought sharing the info with you But its a bloody awesome piece, love itD

but the flowers in the background of the rising sun would have a bit lower opacity

very nice piece. I'm especially fond of the flow in your composition, as well as your minimal color choice and the tight theme. After reading your explanation on the piece I find myself somewhat baffled, since the sun seems to be a clear indication of japan, but I can understand the continuum - jumping from one war to the next.
all in all, great piece though.

mrgraphicsguy In reply to vilyawen [2007-10-29 20:30:20 +0000 UTC]

I thought the sun was something like an indication of the east at all... so just a symbol for asia and war in asia (it's based on the japanese war flags which they used during World War II). However, thank you very much for the comment and for the nice words

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

vilyawen In reply to mrgraphicsguy [2007-10-29 22:36:36 +0000 UTC]

the flag is immediately recognizable as the empire of the sun more than anything else (it's a classic japanese trademark, after all) and subsequently hints at world war II because of the tanks and vintage treatment. It is an understandable mistake but ultimately not very important because any inconsistencies in your concept are balanced by the excellent execution. So, that's that.
