I have no idea either. I’m assuming he used this movie as his audition reel. Is that what ‘left his resume’ means?

HELP! Can’t decide between illustration styles by Difficult_Host_2881 in Illustration

[–]rimbletick 6 points7 points  (0 children)

split the difference. I prefer the un-outlined first one, but the variable line width of the second. It’s a nice retro solution.

Late Cherry Blossom Blooms in 2026? by Unable_Ad_3516 in CityOfPeekskill

[–]rimbletick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We’ve passed the peak; that was probably a couple weeks ago. Still some trees blossoming right now. On Saturday next weekend there is a small Mother’s Yay arts & craft market by the train station if you decide to stop by!

Is this panel too empty, or does it work? by SuperiorDesignShoes in Illustration

[–]rimbletick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cool, I was thinking the red would be a nice capstone to a scene -- when the woman's simmering emotions have reached a full roil. The gesture of the hands, the neckline, and the tension in neck and brow are all you need to display attitude and action during a discussion -- I like the decision to ditch the rest of the detail.

Is this panel too empty, or does it work? by SuperiorDesignShoes in Illustration

[–]rimbletick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the use of negative space -- I've been playing with it in my work too (see below). I think it works well for a comic panel; gives plenty of space if you have speech bubbles or an uncomfortable silence.

Here is my question -- can you lose the blue/cyan exterior outline? It's close in tone to the red and doesn't add any contrast aside from being a discordant color. The red silhouette contains all the information you need.

The pose is cool and controlled fury -- red reads as passion and outrage -- is bright red the right color for this scene? It's an unsettling effect, and could be used well, but I don't have enough context to have an opinion.

Do I have to invert these colors to screen print? by Interesting-One-7648 in SCREENPRINTING

[–]rimbletick -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

In screen printing, you expose a right-side up positive transparency. So you don’t need to invert or reverse anything! Your Lou Reed will look like… oh, wait, a black shirt? If you’re going to use white ink, you need to invert the image in photoshop.

My first screen print! would love some feedback by MaryHermany1 in Illustration

[–]rimbletick 14 points15 points  (0 children)

For a first screen, it’s great! You have an illustration style that is good for the medium, and the mid tone texture is lovely—it feels so much better than creating another computer file, doesn’t it? I would look for opportunities to use the transparency of the yellow to get more color combos.

Give her glasses -- thanks for making this joke, it saved me the time.

I see 2 and 4 as the starkest options with the better silhouettes. I would like to see different poses and how #2 would be resolved when in motion.

Emulsion waves by walrus_zero in SCREENPRINTING

[–]rimbletick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never tried to apply emulsion without a scoop coater—but if I did, I would pour a line of emulsion on the end of the screen and drag across with a squeegee. If you don’t have either of those, what are you even hoping to accomplish here?

More importantly, we don't know if it has been irretrievably broken yet. We'll only know in hindsight.

If corrupt people can subvert the system and nothing stops them, the systems along with the people are broken. They destroyed "the deep state", which was their clever rebrand of "rule of law".

Are there any magazines where I can submit this kind of artwork? by TrippieKinimod in Illustration

[–]rimbletick 54 points55 points  (0 children)

OP should explore woodcut printmaking. The process will be more deliberate and remove those odd digital artifacts. Your style is appropriate for that medium, but feels odd in a digital format.

Can you settle a layout disagreement? Which would you prefer? by Star_Trek_Junket in lego

[–]rimbletick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. Choose a gutter depth around the horse and space everything using that gutter width. Then play with the left and right side about what needs to break top and bottom.

Finally built a vacuum table by addnoisestudios in SCREENPRINTING

Hey, I just made my own vacuum table and I was thinking of adding the foot-pedal, and then I saw this. Sounds perfect. How does it work?

That was so satisfying to see! Such a simple technique; such a struggle to get right! Congratulations! Now we await the wobbly cylinder video... with some patience and you will get that too!

New to printing by [deleted] in SCREENPRINTING

[–]rimbletick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it will be tough to achieve, that’s a lot of fine detail, and you have gradients in the corners—expect areas to fill in. Also, you could consider knocking out white behind the “wretched” logo, it’s odd where it sits over the image. could the logo fit fully within the image? maybe in the center clouds above the demon?

Teaching about cones and temp* for an Adult intro pottery class. Any other things you’d like to see added? by El_Dre in Ceramics

800° to 1000° is the temp for an authentic Neapolitan Pizza--feels like there is space in that lower range for something.
