Cards ...

Dang, I forgot to take off the text. But then again, it brought out the grunge. The background of the wall are photos of metal. Automotive parts of military vehicles that are layered. I took photos years ago and then merged them together. The radiator is part of the texture, especially for the card background. The text though, is always optional, and I removed it on some of them. It is past midnight now, been busy finishing all of this off earlier today, cleaning the house and blogging now. I gotta get the other pics into the blog later on, if the school computer still will not allow me to upload them, then I do it at home, they all need an update, the missing picture blog ones. I used one of the pics to put the trucks on. A lot of grunge, I figured to put some military stuff, I felt like, the boy in me had to come out and the Army queen and play with art this way. A wall is a protection, a destruction, an imprisonment or anything else. I added some gauges, showing running on maybe E- not sure, and made it look all M-(military) style. I added some of the 50 caliber rounds one former soldier was holding in his hand and grunged him out too- for the destructive wall. The other wall, the reinforcement wall, I thought it was pretty cool to ad some barb wire with animal sculls to it, and I used colors that compliment the background. I think it just feels like on the go, the pics, the one the go, when one goes like the closest way to explain is- mudding and paint balling to compare it to a military style of short term deployment.... Well, hope that others like it, the guys I mean. Felt girly with the Art Deco stuff, and not with this card stuff. Somehow, I do not play cards- it made me remember the days, the guys played cards at night, and the back pattern was the ACU ( Army Combat Uniform Pattern ), and that was one of the big reasons, that this came about too.
