Description After relaying my first idea of red tattoos from mind to canvas, I experimented with some different versions of the final look. But red is just so fantastically cool - I liked them all equally, so thought it would make a nice abstract poster. Almost like a progression of scenes or emotions - possibly reflective of Faith's journey in Catalyst.

But I'm quite very curious which one catches your eye the most.

Here's the original on its own:

Personal preference is third and last. Though, I don't know very much at all about art.

Hey thanks! I had no foresight to which would be most catching, but interestingly those two seem to be the favorites.

Also, observing whether you enjoy a piece of art or not is all you need to know. I greatly appreciate your thoughts.

Second, third and last are awesome. I love the use of the red, it looks like christmas stuff, lol.

Aha! That's fantastic - I'm just imaging Faith running along with Christmas bells on her shoes now - haha!
Glad you like them!

I don't wanna put this on reddit, so you do it.

Na. second is the most striking. The others are too much I think.

Aha - cool to know. Glad you like it.

I'd agree with the others, and say 3rd and 6th.

With the 3rd one, personally I don't really care for the way the tracer effect overlaps some of the parts of the arm tattoo, makes it feel a bit too busy/muddled. It also seems a bit odd how some parts of the tattoo do have the tracer, but some don't. It works *really* well on the eye tattoo, though.

Oh cool - good feedback. I see what you mean with the tracer effect on the arm.
But glad you like it!

Aha - most curious. Thanks for the feedback, chap. Β

Third one from the left, I like how there is a little trail. Looks like she's moving forward fast.Β 

Also the middle of the red is neat but it feels like all that red is a bit overloading.

I see what you were doing with the last panel but it creates more of an apprehensive look and you can't see the sweat details as much.

ZedEdge In reply to jupiterlight28 [2015-08-14 01:23:27 +0000 UTC]

Aha - I see. Really interesting perspectives - thanks for elaborating on them.

I wasn't thinking too much while doing these - just feeling it out. So it's cool to understand what they're really doing.

I'll keep your note about the overloading red in mind for future pieces.

Ooh, yes - I concur with RoninDude - #3 for me, the transparent red seems to tell a story of Faith being pushed to extremes - the speed, the intensity, the fly-or-fall risk. Get outa there NOW, Faith!

But - I also love the set. It's such a great progression - she seems to start out where we know her, and then push through challenges that almost consume her, only to break free in the final phase - transformed and triumphant.

ZedEdge In reply to extremeweasel [2015-08-14 01:20:22 +0000 UTC]

Oh nice! That's an awesome interpretation.Β  I hadn't considered how adding such a simple element can alter the story so much.

And I'm glad you like the progression. It'll be interesting to see how well it lines up with the story they have planned.

RoninDude [2015-08-11 16:12:18 +0000 UTC]

Gotta say, I thinking I like the 3rd one the most, from the left. There's enough red to be striking, and I like the tracer effect that it has.

ZedEdge In reply to RoninDude [2015-08-12 22:09:15 +0000 UTC]

Aha - cool to know. Yeah, it's the only one that adds a new element (being the tracer effect) - whereas the others are just filters.
Glad you like.
