Description
Spend some days editing the drawing "Assimilate" [link] for the album cover. I thought maybe you would like to see the result. I didn't want to update the original pencil drawing with this one.I recolored the blacks fixed some dust etc and scan errors and did things with color levels.
Black borders and text "artwork by..." will not be visible on cover.
Original made with pencils (110 hours). Size 58 cm x 17 cm

Amazing amount of details! I like the fact that you can look at it for a long time and discover new things and how these organic characters interact with each other.

Ahh, right, I've done that before. I just simply can't fathom working on one piece for 110 hours. What duration of days did you work on it for?

You should try but 110 hours is crazy and I don't do that often. I think 2 or 3 months.

Were you commissioned? If so, how much were you paid?

Not much? D:
For 110 hours? I hope our definitions of not much are different.

No there wasn't much budget also it was my first and it gives a lot of exposure when it's released and I had a job back then. I choose myself to put so much hours into it.

Yeah, exposure is just as good as money in most cases. I'm glad you're satisfied with it. C:

Yes but I'm still waiting it to be released... Also as a starting artist doing such a commission is priceless and very motivating. Hopefully it will give me more commissions in the future.

Definitely! An album cover has got to be one of the best ways to have people see and recognize your art. Congrats! I wish you plenty of exposure once this album gets released.

Thank you very much! It will be for a underground various artist compilation but I'm not familiar with the music genre. Something electronic tripping stuff.

that is fantastic looking I like how crowded the image seems in that it is meant to be overwhelming, that somewhere there is a universe that is just full of things.
