DIESEL WALL MANCHESTER SUBMISSION. 18.05.08.

diesel_wall_blog.jpg

I’ve been working on this entry for the Diesel Wall contest for the past few weeks, on and off, and finally had to tell myself “it’s finished!” and submitted it last night. The idea being that it will look like a hole blown through Urbis. I might keep working into it, add more little people, more detail and carnage, but I’m pretty happy with it for now and reckon it could look great up there on the Urbis wall. But looking at previous and current winners from other walls, there  doesn’t seem to be much photography chosen, illustration seems to be king. Fingers crossed though!

 

Thanks to gorgeous gobshite Hayley Jane Warnes for being my monster, Anna Priadka for the make-up and John, Chris, Mei, Shiddly and Sylvia for being my terrified extras.

 

Here’s an example of how it could look in place.

Looks ace Jim, really striking…though for a truly terrifying monster a 100 foot Campbell would have been the business! Thinkin on, maybe not - Urbis would of lost all their punters!

this is just amazing. I look at it and compare to the submission i have sent in, i have no chance. I really hope yours will be considered, as the effect is great!
All the best.

i think this looks amazing, it would be great to have it in manchester. only thing is the past winners and this years zurich winner are much more simple in comparison. Still, could be time for a change and this is a great piece so good luck!

Saw the winning submission, thought it looks like rubbish with no work put into it :( Yours deserved to win!
