This looks really cool!

Simple to do, too. The 'Zid' is on one layer, the sketch on another. Some pencil tool, some airbrush-done. I think it took me all of five minutes hehe

It looks very cool for something done so quick! If it were on black velvet paper, I bet it would glow under black light!

I would love to learn how to do stuff like that traditionally.

I wonder if you can get like that black velvet paper to use? I don't have great art supply stores here...Michael's and Hobby Lobby, which are slanted more towards "hobby" arts and not drawing/painting art. I could be fun to attempt, if you could find the supplies!

It has a really interesting history. Here are some great tips http://www.lowellartworks.com/Lorensvelvettips.htm
Sounds a bit pricey. I might do black scratchpaper and see if it can be painted on though.

Yeah...that's the worst part about traditional art.......................it's ridiculously expensive to constantly buy supplies. I think that's one reason many artists make a push into digital...the over-time cost will probably be less than buying new paints, markers, pens and canvases. But starting digitally does take a chunk out of the wallet to begin with (also takes up less space in a physical environment).

But it sounds like it would be fun to attempt to do it one day...looks like it would give a neat texture to the paints, too!

Might expect this from a dang hippy like you!!

This looks like a real album cover, actually.

Love the contrast and chalky lines!
