DWITT :

again, all that I informed/invited to come to the show didn't make it, luckily the other bands brought some people. Some. We rocked, best performance yet, turned some heads for sure. We were ON! Some would say, and did, we were "off the hook". I think having a sober drummer was a good idea. :mrgreen: again, thanks to everyone for the compliments.

maynard :

Dude, incredible. Your shading makes me forget that it's black and white, there's so much depth to this one.

dspring :

David, this illo is so amazing that I would see the show anyway or at least steal the flyer, good job, we will trade soon for this.

2003-05-11 01:06:00

DWITT :

This show is tomorrow, and I fear after all the local hyping I've been doing, no one will show up to see my first sober performance. TENXLBS is the only moderately "Rock" sounding band on the bill, the rest is all PUNK!!! mohawks and all...

DWITT :

Hey, Mr. Imagine, it was looking at YOUR website that made me realize i need to push myself more creatively. So there. :D

Jeph :

BRUSHES SUCK!!! OK they don't really I just needed to be the voice of dissent. Actually I've never used a brush (except for a toothbrush) so I wouldn't know.

DWITT :

Dude! You finally tried Vanilla Coke, didn't ya?!

Grzeca :

Brushes rule. Join us. Join us . Join us.

2003-05-05 15:56:47

DWITT :

See my "Theory" below, as to why the text is not very bold. Brushes are fantastic. It's like dancing/fencing. I'm still convinced Pedini's lines are done by professional ice skaters.

2003-05-05 15:47:50

Delicious :

i need to start using a brush - but I'm scared! great illo - but may have liked to see the blood (?) filled in with the type reversed. great illo though

2003-05-05 15:29:59

Grzeca :

The shit is rocking by the way, David.

2003-05-05 15:22:35

Grzeca :

Yes.

2003-05-05 15:21:55

DWITT :

Thanks. So you're saying I should ask for a raise?

2003-05-05 15:17:50

The Game :

very imaginative and expertly rendered. Genius like this in our corporate economy is probably worth 7-8 dollars an hour. It's a fucking great poster.

2003-05-05 15:15:26

DWITT :

The hatching on the lettering at the bottom, and the words "Happy Mothers Day" are the only things done with a pen. The rest is done with a brush. One brush, to be exact, and it cost me two whole dollars.

2003-05-05 15:11:24

perkins :

Lordy!! Nice drawing! Reminds me of the black market photo that appeared on some Big Black LPs of the kid who blew his face off with a shotgun.

2003-05-05 09:10:24

Plantweed :

Question for Dwitt: line work, brush or pen?

2003-05-05 08:09:47

Pedini :

"This makes me feel so FUCKING lazy." Hehe, no shit. Witt's an ol' school craftsman.

2003-05-05 07:36:45

GIGART :

Awsome Illustration. Great detail.

Ewing :

This makes me feel so FUCKING lazy. :D

2003-05-04 10:13:46

DWITT :

Thanks, Jim. It helps that I don't drink or sleep anymore. I'm breathing ink. And getting grey hair.

2003-05-04 09:43:54

altieri :

That is sooo great Dave. You deserve it and I wish you the best. In my opinion your are one of the best illustrators I have seen in a long time. You have the ability to draw anything you want. I am very envious.

2003-05-04 09:22:44

DWITT :

slowly. I just did my first magazine cover for a monthly music journal. The most boring illustration they've asked me to do, and it's on the cover. I think more illustration work will eventually come, but right now, local bands are the only people taking any notice, and PAYING me. My upcoming Triple Rock Social Club job will give me up to three posters a week, and that kind of consistent output, good and bad, will probably drum up more business. There's also the work I do through/for Squad19, that's about a poster a week. So this summer I'll be doing around 16 posters a month, there'll be a band (Amish Armada) touring with a comic book I'm drawing for them, plus another comic that'll be making the rounds at the San Diego ComiCon. I'm putting myself on the map this year. (fingers crossed)

jasoncross :

your illustration alone deserves respect too...do you get much illustration work...aside from design work...just curious. I think some illustrators on this site (you, goad, pedini, gunsho...and others) could be doing illustrative work for magazines and periodicles, editorials, sp?

2003-05-04 08:06:17

jasoncross :

not a bad take on the opportunities given to the artist DWITT. as a graphic designer you have to work with what your given. Its nice to see that you use that as a constructive element to your work.

2003-05-04 08:04:01

DWITT :

I've finally got a theory on doing posters. For bands that nobody has heard of, such as these, mine included, I'll go crazy on the illustration, and have the bands' names and info be a minor part, since their name won't attract attention, the illustration might. Bigger name bands, whenever it is that I get to DO some posters for them, will have bigger text, less elaborate drawing. I'll get more 'designy' for them. My 'Arrivals' poster is a good example... of something. Thanks.

2003-05-04 08:01:33

jasoncross :

wow, great poster DWITT! I like the way you incorporated the text so that it does not take away from the amazing illustration. Nice detail shading too.

2003-05-04 07:56:40

DWITT :

I don't care anymore.
