Description seeing the presence in my own backyard, perhaps i should lay off the water... and you should too,


image made from photos and poser for the hand, and then did a few effects to emulate the gritty style of the other images of the presence, however i thought i'd retain some of the detail, tell me what you think... oh yea btw this is some Nine Inch Nails fan art...

hahaha yea thanks for the fave and comment man and seriously get back on the water, its the cleaner version of opal we all know opal is produced by the government man, its their way of controlling the rebellious portion of the population, it fucks you up and gives you the visual and hallucinogenic trip, but deep down its still controlling you to become complacent, so shit why pay for it when u can get buzzed off the water ?

ah i cant take full credit for the concept however it is inspired by all the stuff trent reznor came up with for the year zero album i only decided i wanted to create something which symbolised those ideas

"holy shit, they're onto us... get the escalade we're outta here!!!" lol thanks heaps for the fave yea i love this whole Year Zero Arg, i haven't really had much time to get involved lately, i've been intending on making another year zero piece, but as i say i haven't really had time... well... i guess great destroyer was a year zero piece, but only because i was listening to year zero when i made it, lol anyway have a good one and thanks again for comment and fave both are really appreciated

You're welcome, it's a great piece. I haven't been following everything as much as I'd like to, either. I'm very for tomorrow, can't wait to pick up a copy of Year Zero. Even though it's available to listen to online, I've managed to (mostly) resist the temptation....so far, I've only listened to 'My Violent Heart', 'Survivalism', 'Capital G', 'Me, I'm Not', and 'The Good Soldier.' The rest is all a mystery.

I've watched the trailer over and over, though...and it still scares me as much as the first time. Brrrrr. The Presence fascinates me.

SoulConsciousness In reply to maenad77 [2007-04-16 18:37:28 +0000 UTC]

yea i love it, it is one of their biggest references to the stand(stephen king), although there are others scattered amongst the arg, there are also references to Slaughter house5 and many forms of literature which relate very closely to the ideas TRent is trying to represent through Year Zero, i agree with you about the trailer, it scares the shit out of me, its what inspired this piece actually.

ah you're missin out on some of the best, you are going to LOVE the full album, actually that reminds me i better go pick it up sometime this week, yea its one of those albums, where its like "i wanna hear this track.." but "i dont wanna skip through to it" so i just listen to the whole thing in sequence it has alot more power that way, like the effect and the story is translated alot more clearly

yea i'm excited for MAY 14!!!! when i get to see them live in concert at this little club in melbourne, well its not little, but its small compared to the arena venues i've seen them previously in, i hope to god they play a good selection from the new album and i also hope they play nothing from a witha teetha... lol not that it was a bad album but by their standards... it was lol

i saw the with teeth tour in 2005 it was good... they even played Burn from natural born killers soundtrack and not too many people in the audience recognised it.. but me (oliver stone fan) i was all over that shit lol good times, i also saw the fragility tour in 2000,

joshisgross [2007-02-23 05:38:23 +0000 UTC]

I think it's cool - feels like a rush of panic and adrenaline.

One suggestion, I'd like if you made another one and made the Presence less defined. You can see the fingernails and each individual finger and I think that makes it much less creepy.

BTW, I found this at myspace.com/nin, can't wait for the album (or at least more leaked tracks )

haha nice observation and i agree i probably should have blurred it a little more, well thats the presence v1.0 i'ma wait for the album and whatever other marketing TR decides to drum up for it, so that i can get a better impression, and encapture the true feel of the album,

thanx tek, couldn't have sed it better myself, yea it felt like a rush job coz i had to wake up early as and get tickets this morning, but now that i have the time to look at it, yea i get the feeling it was drawn although it was multisourced from three different mediums, including 3d, photography, and photo-manipulation.

FrauleinAngst [2007-02-22 15:11:38 +0000 UTC]

Knowing zero about the band, and little about photomanipulation, I can only say I really like the texture a lot and the overall drama.
