------------------------full view please----------------

for- a contest for ~ElectronicBodyMusic :iconelectronicbodymusic:
media- pencil, ink, fire, water, crumbling of paper, photoshop.
based off of the song- Doubleplusungood by Seabound.
wallpaper size- 1280x1024

If you use the wallpaper and you like it, please favorite it. :) (thank you!)

Okay... so it's been awhile since i've done anything like this (take a couple of years actually.) It was liberating to do this project. Also I need to free up the way I color again, cause I have a feeling i'll be adding these elements to other 'projects' in the future.

About the contest- we were suposed to make a wallpaper for the new album, "Double-Crosser" by Seabound (one of my all time favorite Syth-pop/ebm/industrial groups. ) I picked the song "Doubleplusungood." I wante dto convey the emotion that the narator gives off through his lyrics and emotion. The words in the piece are directly from the song (well as well as i could make out since I couldn't find the lyrics online.) I dunno if it's Guy (my character). It could be.. it's fitting. I just got stuck with a bald head, cause of the cover of the SEabound album, and I'm a sucker for bald guys (and guys with long hair.. go figure.)

Check out Seabound!
Seabound's homepage.
Their Myspace, with samples from the new album.

that is all.

Doubleplusungood 1280x1024 by =SpookyChan... shows us that love frequently equals to pain, in order to surrender to it a part of us dies for another part to be loved. We strangle usually the parts within us that we think someone might not like them, we hide them away, and they scream endless scream untill it slowly fades away. ( Featured by `archanN )

There's so much energy in the mark making, and I love the color choices. Awesome work!

"doubleplusungood" is a term from Orwell's book "1984" And any band that makes a reference to george Orwell is awesome in my book.

I must say that the title to this piece is brilliant! Too few people get newspeak references
