Shear Terror SCRAPPED Cover Idea

I had a lot of fun working this up but I don't feel it quite works as a COVER. So I'm gonna try something else, but I still thought it was worth sharing, for shits and giggles.

heh,
as it was loading s l o w l y
(dialup - ugh!), I thought:

"maybe he'd be more scared if he wasn't being menaced by those plastic scissors, the kind they gave us in kindergarten..."

Yeah, sharper!! Or some big freakin' bush clipper! Something that says, ""You're screwed, dude."

I love that eye on the right; it just pulls you right into the image.

I think every stoy/image is going to have the scissor/eye thing.

I actually like this, by the way, certainly at least for a promo poster or t-shirt.

no scissors-in-the-eye in our little tale! but i bet we'll have the broadest array of shears in the book!

I think it could have worked. Just the scissors sharper like monica and dembicki were saying, and maybe a bigger logo, it's kind of just lost up there right now. Love the face though. You can tell the guy is terrified right off.

everyone's an art director!

I have a much better idea. This sucks.

Chris at 1/20/2006 3:52 PM   

Definitely doesn't suck, dude...better than I could ever dream of doing! It does make me curious what you're gonna whip up now, though!

That is the scaredest ninja I ever did see!
