**Chermilla** · July 25th, 2007, 06:48 AM

What an AMAZING first post!

This is getting five stars from me, as it's the best thing I've seen all week!! I love these, the way you've drawn them into actual environments...the textures are so GORGEOUS and the ideas are pretty clever. For example like the raining stones and the little monster guy with the umbrella, and the guy going down the pit on a rope and the firefighter...ok, they're ALL great lol....I think I'm gonna have to have one of these as my new desk top image at work too if ya don't mind.

I wanna see more, post more please!

Amazing...my favorite piece is the rocks falling onto the people below. Quite brilliant if I say so my self.

**STANIforth** · July 25th, 2007, 09:08 AM

FUCKING AWESOME! Original, imaginative, fantastic concept, wonderful characters, all around an absolute joy to experience! What fun! Thanks for posting and keep up the good work! Cheers!

**Matt Dixon** · July 25th, 2007, 09:21 AM

When I saw the first couple of these I thought I'd hate this post. ' Jesus. How many times have we seen this crap? ' I thought. That just goes to show what a cynical and generally unpleasant old bastard I am. By the time I'd got to the fourth or fifth I was hooked and I was genuinely disappointed when I reached the last image.

Little stylised skull-headed dudes might not be the most original concept, but what you've done with them certainly is and the characterisation and humour is remarkably inventive throughout. I had to double check that they were overlayed on the photographic material and not actually painted on the surfaces - the integration is pretty convincing in some of these images. They're the pieces that work best in my opinion. 10, 17 and 20 are my favourites.

Great stuff. Thanks for the smiles!

**rWDrk** · July 25th, 2007, 09:35 AM

Great stuff, cant wait to see more of these.

cheers

**Borilius** · July 25th, 2007, 09:56 AM

Excelent characters, would love to see more

**monotony** · July 25th, 2007, 10:25 AM

brilliant. I love how you put them in different places. that cave and the mermaid ones made my day.
but all of them are great and inovative. looking forward to see more.

**Fourth Nail** · July 25th, 2007, 10:53 AM

Wow man, some of the most innovative stuff I've seen in here in a long time. Have you animated any of it yet? The Fireman and Spelunking are my favorites.

I can so see this as an animated series.

**Flake** · July 25th, 2007, 11:39 AM

These are cool.

**Matt Smith** · July 25th, 2007, 01:36 PM

these are adorable, i like the ones the most that fit with the background, such as the fireman or the ones at the pool, etc, cant wait to see more.

**young paddy1** · July 25th, 2007, 01:55 PM

I've seen most of these on Eatpoo, I was impressed there and I'm still impressed here.

nicely done

cheerio.

**Konstruktion** · July 25th, 2007, 02:00 PM

haha yeah super cool wags (?). 12, 10, 9, 19, 17, 16, 15, damnit they're all nice!

**light** · July 25th, 2007, 02:23 PM

I love these guys, but the fireman is just brilliant.

**z!Nk** · July 25th, 2007, 03:25 PM

Hacia mucho que no veía algo realmente cholón por aquí. Me he quedado aturdido.

YOUR WORK IS AMAZING!!!

**Raskolnikov** · July 25th, 2007, 04:10 PM

A wicked, mad, incredible style I say. After a while I've found myself shaking my head and laughing! I just love the way You mix different values of flat characters and rough wall surface. I'll watch that thread

**JAG.** · July 25th, 2007, 04:50 PM

bloody brilliant! - JAG

**walnut** · July 25th, 2007, 05:51 PM

**Rascar Capac** · July 25th, 2007, 05:52 PM

#14 fireman made my day - brilliant

**JTumburus** · July 25th, 2007, 06:16 PM

Outstanding! brillant!
The fireman and the rain (10) are my favs.
Thanks for share.

**SummoniX** · July 25th, 2007, 06:19 PM

WOOOW
friggenly amazaing and unique
what did u use to draw those?
especially the white color, not sure what it is
i rememebr when i was drawing on marble i was using markers and wideout instead of white but that was a long time ago >.<

**Layil** · July 25th, 2007, 09:20 PM

these are awesome!!! like someone already said, its not an original idea in terms of the cartoony gothy style, but what youve done with them is brilliant, and your sense of design is totally cool.

i dig em, lets see more!

**ICH** · July 25th, 2007, 11:59 PM

Truly amazing, inspirational and funny, this is a great collection man.
About you logotype, I think that your creatures deserve really a better distinctive sign! The font you used it's one of the most used fonts, there is hundreds blogs of Burton's fans and dark guys where you can find this font. Try to do some very personal typesetting, I see that you have the skills to do this, just looking at the schoolbus: your typeset it's really more unique and fit perfectly whit the mood of your character's line. Also the stone elements... I see some better elements on other works. A logotype must be the best of you can do, you'll see many many times and he have to represent your work, and your work it's great: you need a great logo.

Anyway, post more! I like your work's a lot!

JM · July 26th, 2007, 12:43 AM

Brilliant how you incorporated all those surfaces and textures of everyday stuff. There are probably endless things you can possibly do with these.
You get 5 stars from me~

**Jaku** · July 26th, 2007, 02:34 AM

Bravo!! 5 stars!

**zweiDee** · July 26th, 2007, 09:43 AM

you have a great fantasy and a original style. keep it up!

**Oblio** · July 26th, 2007, 10:43 AM

long time fan here . welcome to CA.

**Moai** · July 26th, 2007, 10:03 PM

This is, without exaggeration, the best and most creative use for photographed textures that I've ever seen on this site. It's brilliant the way you took these things that few would ever pay the least bit attention to, just little bits of chipped paint and cracked walls, and brought them to life. These are wonderful things you have created. Bravo!
