OI!


This very punkish picture is another sketch that was colorized and messed with in Photoshop. I was never really a punk but was and still am a big fan of the CLASH.

Nice. I like this one a lot. I too was not a punk (well, in the musical sense anyway) but I like the music and the culture. This one has a Henry Rollins feel to it.

Thanks Ben!

I enjoyed Rollins' monologues back in the '90's. You're right, this looks more like his more macho in your face style of punk, as opposed to the more socialist CLASH.

I have to say also the this image owes a lot to the punk artist Gary Panter.

This guy looks like the last thing seen through the windshield on a foggy night just before the crash.
"I swear, Officer, he was just standing there! He looked like he was on fire . . . and
his eyes . . . his eyes were . . . glowing!"

Scary.

Heh heh. I hadn't thought of it that way but that is funny.

I had the same feeling as Anthony on this one. Almost a twilight zone feel but more up to date.

Very cool!
