Shards (May 8, 2002) This piece uses screen caps from "Double or Nothing", wherein Angel really goes to town with his famed silent broody "King of Pain" bit, mourning the loss of his only child. Glibness aside, it's actually rather moving, so I felt the need to create, and here we are, yet another brown/black piece. Don't worry, I'm sure it's just phase ;-) Custom brushes kindly provided by misprintedtype.cjb.net. This was a pretty straightforward collage that went together pretty easily. I picked my images, and they quickly fell into place. I then desaturated and colorized with adjustment layers and scuffed away with custom brushes. The main font is "good bye cruel world" (is that a great name for a font or what?) and the accent font is "bm sly". Can you tell I've been more into Angel than Buffy lately? I think it's my subconscious trying to spare me the agony of waiting for new eps. I'm only current through Normal Again, and I'm guessing it'll be June before I get to see the last 5 eps of the BtVS season. Meanwhile, I'm getting my Angel fix every week...
