 Adam James Turnball

Adam James Turnball's blog is very good and well laid out. I am following this blog because I like how he presents his work and he uses nice and simple colours to crate his work. He may just use black and white or have three colours in his work but how he uses it is clever as he can create a person and still use the same colour for all the detail and the title. I also like how he has bright coloured backgrounds and mainly uses a cream or black to do all the detail to the image.

I found this blog very interesting and I like how the the typography is used because it stands out over anything else that is in the image plus the range of colours that have been used are very clever as the artists use a very bright and colourful range of colours which give a happy and warm feeling where as if you had dark green as the typography with a black background you would not be able to see it and it would be very dull. The artists use simple colours and do not use too much of these colours which makes the typography stand out more, I think it is simple and a very effective idea. I have noticed that the colour which most artists use in the background is black, this is good as the typography will be more eye catching.  I like this blog because the artists use few colours and the typography is bright and bold and with the background as black it works exceptionally well.

 Concept art world

http://conceptartworld.com/ has  a dark and deep feeling to it, the majority of the pictures have a background which fades out to get darker and darker. The dark and dull colours are effective and shadows are a big part of concept art as they can tell how a character's personality may be. I have noticed that with Concept art the artists try to fill as much of the page as they can and make it as detailed as possible. This some how catches the eye and where ever you look on the page it is full with detail. I am following this blog because I think it is very useful and detailed, alot of the images are of sci-fi or action games or films and a lot of effort has gone in to creating these images. It is inspiring to see something you like and artists creating such amazing art about it.

Too Many People!




Tomer Hanuka


This poster which Tomer hanuka designed is of the film 300. This poster is of a scene where Leonidas has to claim his title to become king and kill the man-eating wolf.
The layout of this poster is simple and few colours have been used. The layout is Leonidas holding his weapon and the wolf circling around him. The features on the wolf’s face such as the eyes and mouth are the colour red and red is associated with death and blood and this could be why Hanuka has put this colour in the wolf’s face because it is blood thirsty. Leonidas has cuts on his back and legs and just this one colour change tells what has happened. The Title of the film 300 is used in a scribble like blood on the wall and it has splats and splodges of the red ink or blood. This title comes across to say that maybe the film is brutal and gory.
In the poster the wolf looks like it has been stuck onto the poster because it has a misty brown colour. The wolf also looks like it has starved because it’s has a very thin stomach. I think the colours in this poster especially the background does not suit the book and film because the scenery is in a canyon and it is very dark and dulland you can only see the wolf’s eyes. However though, Hanuka could also be referring to Frank Miller’s graphic novel.
This scene is the first scene in the film and I do not consider it to be one of the most important scenes in the film, the fighting scenes are because it is an action film.
