Skull, Roses, and Maggots

posted 4 months ago by Alexa Machine

Skull, Roses, and Maggots image

This is probably the first sketch I’ve done in about 5 to 6 years, and my first ever sketch to live trace in Illustrator.
I’m not sure about the color palate, or what I should do with it. The top right isn’t finished yet, or maybe it is, and I’m not sure if it would be good enough to sell, or enter into a contest.

Any insight would be really helpful.

Thanks!!

    Looks great, if you wanna go the extra gross mile make one of those worm like things come out the eye or nose!

    add some kind of definition to the magots kinda looks like worms more than maggots. and the rose needs to be a lighter red.. other wise cool design

    Slime out of the maggot’s mouth, I agree. I really like it though!
