Hey, guys, it's an anniversary pack, probably that's why it's that huge :)
Somehow we managed to stay drawing for two years, bringing you a spoonful of
art every month. And instead of giving ourselves a medal, we give you this
pack number twenty four. Treat it well.

This time we greet a seasoned veteran who has joined our ranks: Remission.
And guests, which include Tomppa1, Grim, MadASScow, ikarus and a scene
debutante - Songom. Thanks to Atom for her appearance.

Here's another original style from me. I could do 10 of these in a day now
that I know the process, so if you don't like my direction, you can feel
safe knowing that I'll probably abandon it tomorrow. Then again maybe I'll
explore promising new avenues in this style as a result of my own laziness
like any "serious" artist would do.

Zoom in 200% for full effect. For FULL FULL effect, contact me for a
higher quality original in tif or even the original .psd if you want, THEN
zoom in 200%. :)  I grow tired of jpeg's inexactness, but these would be
pretty huge files at 0 compression.

Oh, and if you see me on irc, yell at me for not having a web page.

First of all; I'd like to express my respect for what you guys and gals
in hrg are trying to do with your art. I've rarely seen such a homogenic
group of such a high quality. Second; the piece is in a series where I try
to create a feeling of an isolated film clip where you only get a glimpse
of a wider context. At least that_s my ambition. Greetz also, to all the
people who really respects their talents!

hello, this month's guest is something different i'm trying;
laying my usual photo manipulation over a more 3 dimensional
background. in this case, it's a pile of polaroids. normal
photomanipulations are sort of flat, nothing really pops out
at you. on each of my polaroids is a different manipulation.
they don't really share any common theme, but are showing
different style's i've been experimenting with. so they're
more an exhibition of my art. i also have some changes in
the polaroids themselves, with some of the borders having
the photomanipulation seeping into our out of them. this
is meant to represent the way I usually take a element
of one piece, and base a new piece on that particular
element. this piece was inspired by a work that a
graphic designer of named Saul Bass did for the movie Exodus,
directed by Otto Preminger. photos used in the manipulations
are a combination of stock photography and photography
that I have taken myself. enjoy =)

Finally, the main work of this month is finished:

Solve the best online quest of the world.

I've began a new project. All the month I draw one big ascii piece which
includes all that I live through during the month, and so it represents
a single picture of thoughts/flashbacks/dreams caught unawares. A guided
flight of the machine through me. If you see it only once, you will learn
nothing...
This month I scored 23. I became even more torn apart from inside.

This is a joint between madASScow and I. This picture represents an
experiment of color and texture. The meaning is up to the viewer, as
it is with all pieces of art.
Remember to d/l my solo when/if it is ever released.

thomas: A picture that has been kicking around on my hard drive since I
got photoshop. It started as a picture of a chicken-killing factory and a
man locked up in solitary. confinement. Note the sinister stare of horror-
THE EYES OF THOMAS THE TANK ENGINE

hooraaay - I've been given a tablet! :)
my manner didn't seem to suffer from it much, but the institute session
didn't deny me to finish almost all I wanted to do... and I hope that now
the lack of ability to express myself will limit me less...
"Koziava: where do the lost things go?.. I think there's another world
where all the people lose is stored.. dried goo transforms into mysterious
creatures.. and the doll didn't come alive yet...
thanks to the animator who happened to inspire me :)
"Walk: and it is not at all scary if it's good as that (a present for my
mother)..
"Hunt: the eggs of the goatbirdfish are very valuable, so the hunter
never relax
"Splat (with atom): what can you see in the ink spots?..
they transform, too, nothing stays forever..
"-18C (with Sprocket): a gloomy yard, an empty room, a warm cat on the
shoulder... and a real lot of air...
great thanks to: Spro (for all, and a bit more...), Shere (I hope you'll
never have to show me this kind of mistakes again.. :)
diti, tEr, atom, all who helped me this month with their opinions,
co-operation and critics (you made me thoughtful), my dreams and the crow
outside my window...
