I do like this piece... very much (someone else mentioned Gaiman... Good Omens is one of the best books Ever...).
Beautifully set together - well done

Oh, you're a Gaiman-fan as well? I tried to create Death in Gaiman's manner...
Really glad you like the piece.

I love the idea and what you did to those photographs. Although somehow the face of the death looks a bit out of place. I think it's her expression.

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

greenfaery In reply to suprakarma [2003-12-28 23:46:55 +0000 UTC]

Hm, what exactly about her expression? I wanted her to look cheeky, upp to no good, but friendly...like Sandman's Death...

marble911 [2003-12-15 08:51:58 +0000 UTC]

What a lovely family! Where they are apocalypse isn't a long way off either. Just picture them sitting around a Christmas tree...

I like the individual pieces and how you put them together...like a scary gallery of ancestral portraits. There are a few minor things which could be improved in my opinion, in particular with regard to the framing of the individual pieces. Famine has this untextured inner line of grey, at least at the top and bottom, which doesn't look too good. The frame around death lacks contrast to the background, almost looks as if there was no frame at all (might be a problem with my stupid screen, though). And War stands out from the rest because of his neck being visible. Anyway, just a couple of things I noticed. Maybe there's a reason for them being like that.

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

greenfaery In reply to marble911 [2003-12-15 16:01:34 +0000 UTC]

Don'T tell me I put up the wrong pieces, since Famine had a textured frame as the others. But with Famine-textures (I didn't use the same texture for every single piece because...they wouldn't have fit).
I wanted to give every single piece its very own personality. They should stand on their own and have their very own and personal character traits. The concept is the same for all of them.
...but war needs a neck, don't you think? What's shown/presented when someone capitulates? The neck and the throat...war presents his and mocks everyone...because he will never give up, he will always fight on.
Death has a frame, seriously...and my screen is hellishly dark...

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

marble911 In reply to greenfaery [2003-12-18 10:23:19 +0000 UTC]

To me it looks as if Famine had two frames, a textured outer one and an untextured inner one that is visible at the top and bottom only, but not at the sides. Do you see what I mean?

I like how they all have a personality of their own and you're probably right, War needs a neck and throat if viewed from that perspective. Makes sense. Maybe War also likes standing out from the rest, having his head up in a proud way for everyone to see...

Hm, still weird...I really don't see what you're describing. Nevermind...

War is arrogant, war thinks of himself as more important than anything else...

creepy family i must say. i hope to not meet any of them too soon cos life aint any easier with them. well aside from death.. death sometimes has a pro tag on her chest for she is salvation (sometimes).
aside from that.. good photoshopin' job.

greenfaery In reply to BNW [2003-12-18 12:26:57 +0000 UTC]

Very true. Death is the only one we can't escape...and she isn'T that bad...at least I don'T think she is.
Famine or pestilence and especially war are far worse...

BNW In reply to greenfaery [2003-12-20 05:31:32 +0000 UTC]

yep! true she is the best of them all. for she is the salvation after famine, pestilence or war. i just hope death isnt in a bitchy mood when its my turn to giver her my nice little siver spoon. i want her to be on tranquilizers when its time

greenfaery In reply to BNW [2003-12-21 15:31:01 +0000 UTC]

Not sure if you've ever read The Sandman...but the image of death there is this little giddy and perky little goth girl, always in a very good mood, cheery, enjoying life, loving people...but she happens to be death. I think death is like her...

BNW In reply to greenfaery [2003-12-21 20:13:59 +0000 UTC]

cool.. i hope death is cool! i wouldnt want death to be boring, unfriendly and sadistic.
The Sandman.. gonna note that down and get the book when i have finally finished "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy". the style is pretty cool.. almost as if a technician wrote it. i think Douglas Adams was an engineer or so.. havet read his bio yet.. just heard things.
the 5 booked trilogy of his is filled with loads of improbability and impossibility. he also sorta likes discribing "current" political topics and human history in a larger galactic picture and mocks them with abstract technical apporaches.
its fun to read once youve gotten used to his style

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

greenfaery In reply to BNW [2003-12-21 22:35:48 +0000 UTC]

I haven't had the chance yet to read the Hitchhiker-books, but will have so if I worked down my way on the reading list.
The Sandman...well, you will have to buy 10 books...but they are all worth it. And I know a shop where you can get them all...

I can actually predict that this time will come. As soon as you're caught up in the Endless and the Dreaming there is no escape...

The final setting is one of the most striking and efficient in the matter of sending a message !
A four poses but so appaling storyboard,
from left to right, a decaying process leading inevitably to an expecting Death, scarcely made up...
You're definitely very good at going right to the point, especially in posters

greenfaery In reply to asclaire [2003-12-18 11:59:16 +0000 UTC]

I am really glad the process of decay and destruction is visible...looking at the final piece is scary sometimes. Even though the faces I've given them are fictional...the concepts are real and exist...
