Description
I drew this little robot on the back of a post card a while ago and thought he looked so cool that i had to do something with him. I cut him out and sat him on my desk. As I pursued various other projects, he watched over...waiting for his time to shine lol...this was about 3 months ago.This was finished in a bit of a rush (I was using it for an interview I had the next day to get into uni). I started without a concept, I just wanted the robot to be accompanied by more things that had been cut out. Once the squares came and I started playing around with their placement, the idea of what it would all say simply cultivated itself. It was about being imaginative and original - a tornado of ideas and imagination coming out of his head, in contrast to the plain, orderly squares he resided in or was expected to adhere to (as a robot of course).
Hope you like it

aaah holy crap, all four aspects please me , the massive non-irritating details at the top, the cut out robot (

your eye for design is too well-trained, I really really love these

you're very welcome,
do you do all the inking directly on the original copy?
(because I always draw the original in pencil, and photocopy it)
we just got an all-in-one printer thingys, which is exciting
if you do, that's amazing
if you don't you're still amazing
whee.

Simanion In reply to llxandiell [2006-12-13 03:05:46 +0000 UTC]
Yeah i do. Is the photocopying done so if you make a mistake you still have the original? Thats a good idea, but im too dumb for that, i just make mistakes seem like theyre meant to be there
