For your entertainment, I will present a short journal on my signature of the week process, hopefully I will do this each week.

Sig of The Week #44 - Brand

Well, first of all, the first two things that popped into my mind with this topic, was "branding a cow" and "brands" more specifically with advertising.

My first idea came with a fusion of these two ideas. I wanted a guy who was ripping off his shirt, revealing some of his chest, with some type of logo brand, branded onto his chest, with the text. "Advertising, *insert witty comment about advertising here.*

So, I started on this idea. I found a picture. More specifically.

I began, by imprinting the coca-cola logo on him, and tried several different things. Unfortunately, I did not like where the piece was going, and so, cancelled it, and went with a new idea.

My second idea, was essentially a battle between two very popular brands, "Coke" and "Sprite" having them clash, and their colors collide in the center. It got about this far, when I decided, I actually hated this idea.



Not much going on there. It's actually not bad just like that, I didn't want to destroy it anymore, but I wanted something of higher graphic capabilities.

So, I came upon my 3rd and final idea. I decided to get a bunch of brands, and capitalize on and idea that I actually had before this competition, which was about capitalism.

So, I started getting together a bunch of logos, and meshing them together, with lots of grunge, and smudging, and color balance, etc, etc. At first, there were things like McDonalds, and Geico, but I didn't like that look of them. So I decided to stick with Soda, cause I really like the pepsi and coca-cola. Found the rest, and came up with a semi-decent peice.

Unfortunately, the lighting at the bottom, was much too strong, and the peice was too big anyway. So, I cropped it out, to make it attractive, I do this alot. I make a big peice, and crop out a small portion of it. I suggest it to you all.

It looked like this before cropping.



and, then I came with my final piece, which can be seen on the SoTW thread.

Thank you.

-AdvancedK9- and Earthsvisitor have been disqualified;
Being named "Signature of The Week" the rules that would normally apply to a signature still do, yours exceeded the maximum width/height restrictions.

Kayashi's entry... Yeah.

I'm waiting on a theme from T2.

Yeah, sorry about that;
This week I hadn't really been paying attention to the entries, too much going on.

My apologies if it caused any upset, if you still feel like it was unjust then I can put you two back in.
Ever since I began hosting there hadn't been a case like this, I was just using logic.

O_O'.

The last time I never used common sense was when I ate 3 cups of sugar as a 5 year old.

I'll keep that note to self. I didn't think I'd win this anyways.
