  6. Szovjet: Yeah, im pretty sane thanks. It’s a question of technique and how to mimic an ceirtain effect, not to illustrate my personal state of mind.

  8. It’s alright, dont worry about it. I can understand where you are coming from, but there are alot of designers out there that enjoy this kind of artwork and appreciate all tips on how to improve. Although this tutorial isnt that complicated, it does the job. Imagine if you were hired to do design posters for a new horror film block buster, then stuff like this would come in handy… right?
