A group artwork from June 2011. I am interested in re-doing this.
Description: Yomiel looking fly as hell, with Sissel at his side. A medley of characters and props appear in the background. The negative space is white, with Yomiel’s shadow cutting into it.
There was a different version which was bathed in blue-green light. It was more stylized. I’m so sad I lost it...
Background characters
- Jeego and Tengo
- Cabanela
- Jowd (I bet I was too afraid to draw his face)
- Lynne
- Missile
- Kamila
- Sissel again
- Ray
Props
- Crane and wrecking ball
- Guns
- Bicycle
- Chicken
- Red flag
- Donuts and bowl
- Car tire
- Fish tank
- Cogs and gears
- Sweet potato on a stick
What would I do differently next time?
- It would be more stylized like in the lost alternate version. (Ooh, how mysterious!)
- Take inspiration from movie posters, especially Bob Peak
- Include more characters. I want to include Beauty, Dandy, and Detective Rindge, to name a few.
Other thoughts
- It would be cool to draw it in reference to the Ghost World. O m g. An old school VHS vaporwave aesthetic would SLAP. I remember having a headcanon that the story takes place in the 1980s.
- The vaporwave CRT screen idea excites me, but I would also love a VHS tape box style as well.
- In the spirit of the original and its lost alternate counterpart, I should make two versions of this artwork. The world of the living represented by the vhs tape box. The ghost world represented by old, blurry CRT graphics.
