    [Showoff] Here's to Life Theme



    So I am working on a new theme for my own amusement, and it uses the theme 'Here's to Life' a concept taken from one of my favorite songs, which encompasses 3 of my heroes.

    The first image is the base, and is a WIP, it is my take on 'Wheatfield with Crows'

    The text in the image refers to Hemingway, and is also a verse written and composed lyrically by Tomas Kalnoky of Streetlight Manifesto.

    anywho I like it, it isn't supposed to be graphically stunning or anything, and the actual image without the text will have the crows and color added a bit later.

    Im no artist so i wont comment on that
    but you should use a different font/style for the Chris Reitzel text
    And maybe you can use some colors to express yourself more

    haha that made me lol

    not sure what text would really be apropriate for it, and I have not gotten around to color just yet, but it will be added to the pen image in the manner of splotchy paint drips, I did it on a friends computer so I have to wait till I get a new HDD to work on it again... seagate takes way to long.

    Also just as a side note, Hemingway was brilliant, Van Gogh had one of the most beautiful yet tainted minds ever, and Kalnoky who I consider to be equally as great, has pointed out that their deaths, be it suicidal or not, are tragic. That the will to live no matter what grave situation you find yourself it, makes you equally as beautiful.

    So this isn't a cry for help or whatever crazy idea you have brewing in your head if you think the verse is hinting at anything other than what it indirectly stands for.
