Here’s another attempt at the CD cover game:
I actually edited the photo in question this time; if you look at the original you will see a woman in the photo which really distracted from the composition:
Yes – it is quite easy to see the photo was edited, but after all this is not an exercise in forging photographic evidence
To critique my own work, the speech bubble is probably a little too dominant and the “band name” logo colors might not mesh perfectly with the rest of the image.

I am now using DevianArt to host an art gallery / portfolio sort of thing. I will still post images here, but it’s nice to have a community on DeviantArt. It’s also nice to have a simple, art focussed URL that I can give people who are just interested in the art aspect.
My works can be found at http://nilsjeppe.deviantart.com/ – I’d love it if you drop by.
I haven’t spent enough time drawing lately. Today, I had the idea of attempting to create a reflection in a lake with Inkscape. This is the result:

Well… it’s a start, but this isn’t really too useful yet.

I needed another music group to refer to in my NaNoWriMo novel. It had to be something beachy, and hence, Kryoneri was born.
I cheated on the CD Cover game, and used one of my own photos. Searching flickr for a cc-licensed photo simply seemed like a waste of my time when I had a couple of appropriate photos sitting around. The one I used was taken on Bali.
Here’s the – admittedly fairly random – track list for the album:
Update: Version 2 of the cover.
I like this 2nd one better, I think.
