Hope Rides Alone
Once upon a time, The Neme decided to experiment, and try painting something using a blend of photos, photomanipulation techniques, scanned textures and sketches, and Photoshop effects. Inspiration lead me to produce two pieces (which obviously look anything but something made with the same technique), both of which are inspired by/illustrate The Protomen's Rock Opera, ACT I - The Sons of Fate.
The piece I'm sharing today is actually the second born: "Hope Rides Alone", which I used to make a couple of ads/posters for the Protomen 2010 Tour.
This is much grittier than I'd first imagined, and much grittier than the other piece ("Even This Grave...", which sports bright, electric colours) as well, but it's an interesting exercise, I think.
