hey guys,
our second album, "Larva", is complete, and I was just wondering if any of you (who can sketch) would be interested in doing some artwork for us.
i'll post a link to the story/concept.

[Link to www.sendspace.com]

we just need black and white sketches really, specifically of Song 7 (the last dream in the story)
you will be credited on the album.

P.S. The first Rat King album cover is there on the "Browse Art" section of this site. Even if you can't sketch, but can photoshop a sketch

I love the work you've done for the Rat King "album" cover.
I didn't realize this was something you were a part of musically.
What is your part in this, instrumentally, and where are you going?

thanks chris
this isn't a live recording project, in that all of the music is composed using instrument samples and VST plugins (we use Fruity Loops as the base software). so almost no touching of real instruments

but yeah this guy and i used to play in a thrash metal band, he was the drummer and i was the guitarist/vocalist....
where am i going? didn't quite get that

yeah man the sketches will probably make the cover, back cover, and some inside panel as well....
it will be the dominant art on the album.... like the first album....... we'll just be adding the song titles and band name etc later....
it'd be great if you could do a rendition of song 7 (dream 7) at the dinner table

it's very ambient but with metal, industrial and classical parts. very dreamlike yet violent

here, listen to song 7 (the dinner sequence):

Yes, I am an artist. But 3D is only a small part of what I do.
I have music, I have poems, I have stories, I have stories!!
I have stories!!
I write my ass off, and............who cares?

yeah i know what you mean...about a week back i started writing this script called State of Individuals, and after i got to about 3 pages, i was like what the hell, who even cares.
maybe we should have a part of this forum dedicated to other means of creative self-expression.
