Illustration Friday – Memories

[3 Sep 2008 | By | No Comment | 1,801 views ]

Hey, it’s only a *few* days late! (My excuse is that I was at dragon*con (giant sci-fi & fantasy convention) this weekend: Check out the Art I Bought, or peruse the D*con Pics – Lots of Creative costumes!, and check out the crocheted Flying Spaghetti Monster hat i saw)

Wouldn’t it be nice if we had a rewind button to play back our memories?

Memories
Ink sketch, messed with in illustrator and colored in photoshop.

I think this would make a cool t-shirt.. But the green color is a little weak.

    So, I don’t really know what dragon*con is…

  • Dot :

    It’s a giant sci-fi / fantasy convention. It’s held every year here in atlanta, so we always go. It’s a bizarrely fun geeky time. Check out the pics from my previous posts today to get a taste of what it’s like.

    Great idea. I like the concept of rewinding and the binary code.

    Yep, a rewind button might come in handy – maybe a record-over button for some others. This guy is pretty cute.
