Imagine

Hi guys - just thought I'd share with you a little something I made at university today. We had the challenge of creating one of our favorite music artists in the style of our favorite artist at the time. I decided to do a portrait of John Lennon in the rough style you see here. This was hand drawn in Flash using my graphics tablet. Duno why but I much prefer the drawing interface of Flash than Illustrator's.

Photobucket

And while being on the subject of a Beatle - here's a great animation to The Beatle's song Maxwell Edison by a flash artist over at Newgrounds named HotDiggedyDemon. I love the literal interpretation of the words! Also like how the animation has a somewhat Fairly Odd Parents feel to it.


The animated symbol style is made great use of here.
