21st century pulp

blue delilahHere’s something I’ve been wanting to do for a while and have until now only toyed with it.  A faux-fifties pulp novel book cover, complete with lusty descriptions to draw you into picking it up and a price that would entice you to buy it.  Of course, thirty five cents was the going rate back then, so it’s only attactive to us, not necessarily Citizen Eisenhower.

The woman’s pose is very similar to an image from a couple posts ago, and in fact I used the same 3d file as a basis.  I thought that with a small change in her pose, along with some other added elements, I could make something that alluded to a story.   Coming up with a suitable design was more fun, along with creating a simple logo for a make-believe company.  I’m sure I’ll do more of these, as there’s a lot of fun to be had in playing around with all the elements that make a cover of this type.

In other news, my last post offering wallpaper for your Droid phone is pretty much out of date already, as I got update 2.1 today.  Among the upgrades, it has some pretty cool animated wallpaper.  Even though there are ways to create “live” wallpaper oneself, I’m not about to spend the time to educate myself on how to do that.  That’s way too AV nerd for me, and I’d just rather get back to the art.  And in case I haven’t said it in a while, thanks for dropping by and checking out the scribbling.  It’s very much appreciated.
