"I don't normally do much artwork..."

I'm more into coding and mechanical design than the artistic side of things. But when a mate told me about the site he was going to make, his lack of experience with the coding required, basic graphics, and the extraordinary concidence that I'd been working on the exact same theme the night before, I begged him to let me knock up some designs - and he said 'yes', so now I have this:

Not one to blow my own trumpet (unlike the dolphin that's been whoring itself around the forums), I'm quietly chuffed with myself :D

Everything you see there was made from scratch in Photoshop - it really can polish a t*rd!

EDIT: I covered up the site name because I'm paranerd like that, and don't want him losing - what is a very good domain name, for him - on the back of my stupidity! Also, that's not really a design, just some artwork. Although I might try and fit something around that, who knows?

Most of the blood is good. Very good infact. Just the small pool of it on the floor looks poop :P

Aww, I liked the blood bit best of all!

I know what you mean though, there are a few dodgy bits. the hole with the blood is meant to be the main focus, and that all fits together quite well.

Also, the wire fencing I drew by hand, then applied a pixelisation for some reason, then saved it... Couldn't recover it, so I might re-do that part.

EDIT: Actually, I just removed the bit just above the mud - was meant to be a border around the wall, but seemed a bit surplus. Looks slightly better.

Some of it seems a bit dodgy, like the pool of blood and some of it don't seem to go together, like how realistic some of it is, then how not so realistic other bits are (yes, I am aware at how good at explaining stuff I am). But with an actually site on it, that could change.

But yes. It's good.

Thanks. Obviously the theme is Jurassic Park, and I've got a ton of ideas, so only elements of this will make the final cut.

Very nice indeed.

Impressive, most impressive.

wow thats really good.
