Cool work dagnis, you never sleep. I think this is great work, I’m just not sold on how all those lines coming in from the side are interacting with the great illustration
love this one! But not sure of the line around the neck, might be too much, the black stain could be enough (my opinion :)).
i think the gorilla alone would be really cool. but the lines and splatter is a cool effect as well. nice job man like normal. +1
The line thickness on the top teeth is kind of throwing me off. But otherwise, great!
currently i’m just learning how to do those lineworks. so i’m playing around throwing them on everything i can like a kid. i think i’ll get over that soon and get more serious, haha. well, if i ever will get serious, that is. thanks for the great comments! i love criticism, helps me think about how to improve my works, otherwise it’s easy to get lost when you’re doing so much stuff you’ve never done before
I definitely agree that the gorilla on its own would be much stronger.
adobe illustrator :) basically you draw a line, duplicate it many times, then if you wanna make the shape more interesting, group the lines together and add a distortion to them using any of the effect > warp filters you find suitable. at least that’s how i learned to do it on my own. couldn’t figure it out for quite a while, too
thanks for pointing to Inkscape, Mymil, had never heard of it. seems like it already has a lot of features that i’ve wanted to see in illustrator for ages
Sure thing, dagnis! Inkscape is really great in a bunch of ways, it’s awesome to see the open source community create such good software!
Great stuff on the gorilla. A little random with the other lines but all around great stuff.
how the hell did you get the animal wrong- you traced it- so there must have been a discrepton of it somewhere near. wtf.
i actually knew it wasn’t a gorilla. i first set the title for this “the right attitude”, then spontaneously changed it to “gorilla attitude”. sounded better to me. orangutang attitude wouldn’t sound quite as good. i’m no science illustrated here :)
wow!!!
very nice line style you got going on here.
deserves a vote and a comment i think
Loved the shirt…but i didnt like the part over the gorilla’s head..woud be much better without it…
thank you DBH for the great job! and thank you voters! and thank you buyers! yeah!
and just to clarify, as someone already pointed it out in the submission comments, it’s really actually an orangutan not a gorilla. however, we all must agree that surely the attitude is that of a gorilla hence the title :)
Lady’s shirt doesn’t look nearly as good.. placement isn’t as good as the men’s (not the artist’s fault).
congrats on the print . . . I just don’t like that it looks like he’s got braces :)
that’s an amazing print but i cannot see myself wearing it. congratulations. really thats sickkkk
I’m really liking the line experiments you’ve been coming up with and the use on minimal colors to produce such a strong impact. Nice work as usual D. v+
