ambiguously witty comment #1? yesss. really not sure i follow, or if youre being a dick. well actually, im fairly certain of the latter.
how am i anything like the singer of copeland? (its the only thing that showed up when i googled his name)
thanks for the kind words edgil, myke and derek! stoked to be here, im obsessed with this site already. nice to see a solid design community promoting CC, as opposed to a bunch of fourteen-year-old kids doing 'grind logos'.

haha oh goodness, thank god for emptees for that mate :] kinda gettin sick of seein those "brootal grind logos" all over myspace.

kyles referring to sons of nero, but ive been checking out your work for a while, and ive only seen illustrations on the s.o.n. site in the last few months. Personally i think you have a way better understanding of color, they always ruin it.
edgillustrator said 5 months ago
sons of nero isnt bad, but i still dont see a resemblance between chads work and his, chads been doin what he does for a REALLY long time ..
discordantart said 5 months ago
ohhhh okay. hes a great guy, awesome work, so ill take that as a compliment. but, i dont have any clue why youd make that comparison, pretty sure our styles arent even remotely alike.
kyleisez said 5 months ago
im not saying all your stuff is like this, just this is... i cant find pics of what this looks like. not saying you ripped or copied or anything.
discordantart said 5 months ago
oh no worries. juxtaposing/collaging elements together in a design surely isnt reinventing the wheel, so you got me there.
this has a concept, and some sense of relationship between foreground/middleground/background, as opposed to his being more freeform. detailed lineart surely wasnt set in motion by him either. some areas of texturing do remind me of my own art, but if thats recent, ive been pretty consistant with my style for the past few years.
no hard feelings and all that jazz, just not sure what you meant by it. dont see it.

im just stoked to see these colors! plus awesome work as usual! what school you studying at if any?
discordantart said 5 months ago
thanks! its very rare that i get to do anything too colorful with a lot of the bands i have worked for, so i take every chance i can get to make it vibrant.
i attended the cleveland institute of art last fall, but around halfway through the second semester i really wasnt satisfied with it. after a couple months of debating and hating cleveland, i came to the conclusion that it just wasnt worth the money for me. i should probably be attending a local college after this summer just to get some prerequisites out of the way, and transfer somewhere else.
well i would be too if my dad just got trampled in a stampede, hahahaha
