I think the blood text is kinda confusing to me at first (let go=live, or save=live?), but reading the comments help me to understand this piece better.

The blood doesn't look that realistic to me though. You could try to make some blood dripping or flowing down from those texts. It might look more dramatic. And random darkening and thickening some of those blood texts (and your fingers) can bring you even more emotions.

I've been watching your art for years, and I could tell that this one is good but definitely not the best ones. Keep it up....I'm still watching, man.

cartman2k86 [2009-05-01 15:03:51 +0000 UTC]

Keep the text. Without it, it doesn't really portray anything that says good or evil. Either way, it is awesome and well composed. The text just gives it an edge than any villian would put someone through.

Your girlfriend... or this bus of children? You lover... or your partner? The criminals on the other boat, or our boat of decent good people?

I screams of an evil at work and the good, being the person making the choice, is forced to decide. Since things aren't hollywood, you can't have both. Truly, without the words, you're looking more at someone regretting unplugging something.

Either way, the question still goes on without answers and inspires new questions? What was the plug to? What choice did they make? Why are the feeling regret? All awhile, you know they are also thinking of what they could have done to avoid the conflict.

LOL, maybe I just think about things too deeply.

I like the edit. While the color suits blood, I don't know if the font face really would resemble someone writing in blood. Strickly from a historical/statistical standpoint, most people write in blood using their fingers and the font doesn't really leave a rounded finger-print effect. Sloppy, smudged, and larger as it goes down suits though.

I saw one once upon a time in a themed font set. I forget the name unfortunately, but one of the horror ones did include a font that was straight out of horror films. That was some time ago though. I doubt it still exists.

A really powerful entry, although there should be a space after the comma (after 'evil', it looks too stuck together.

Very nice!
I think that in this situation the son would be saved, most likely because the mother would be like ''It's ok son...go save your child...''
At least that's what I think.
