Escapecraft

Though this isn't Music itself, I feel it fits well in this forum. Sometimes when I'm listening to different songs it will influence whatever I'm making in a certain way.

I've listened to this album a ton: And have always been amazed by the artwork. So I've decided to challenge my photoshop skills and try to imitate it... I thought I wouldn't even be able to come close to capturing the look, but I've kind of surprised myself.

Started with this font: http://www.dafont.com/daft-font.font
And was able to turn it into this
Obviously not even close to as great as the original, but it turned out closer than I expected. And I was able to put a little bit of my own style on it. Though I wish I was capable of making what the original artist made. Neeeeed more practice!

So, if you're ever listening to a favorite song or album and get inspired to create something, feel free to share your art here.

My signature down there is basically a copy of a Rolo Tomassi tour poster (which I annoyingly can't find anymore). I used a different font and the colours are a tad different, but it's actually fairly close to a part of the poster. I haven't made a forum sig in ages and ages though, so I'm a bit rusty.

Ohhh, I forgot, so is my avatar (although it was a different attempt), the colours are more like the original poster, but it doesn't follow the original as much (it's just a posterised picture of the earth that I messed around with the colours on). It's actually my wallpaper, just miniaturised.

Sweet, yea I actually liked the style of those.

Gives off an eerie 'looking into the future of outer space from the 1970's' vibe if that makes any sense.
