I love the texture you used on the whole thing.
It gives that graffiti feel to it.
The lighting is really nice.
The vector shapes you have wrapping around the guy helps in keeping your work interesting. Makes you want to look at it some more

It took me a while to see the plug though. I think the texture hides the socket too much.

This is great, I really like the light bulb bit. However I don't really like the line coming out of the socket, the angles of the wire ruin it a bit for me.

Ek0s In reply to JeremyYoung [2008-12-10 01:19:21 +0000 UTC]

I have honestly never seen that tut. I built my lines from circles which is why they are rounder and bigger cruves. Both of the inspirations have pieces that i saw and loved but thanks for the view and nice tut!
