Mixtape Artwork
 
Ahoy. Further to the mixtapery threads, anyone fancy posting pics of the tapes they've recieved? The artwork for my first two were pretty shit, but my third and fourth I've been quite pleased with. By contrast, I was most impressed with the artwork on Hip Priest's and Bytor Peltor's, and I imagine the standard is pretty high across the board.

Do you people have cameras? I'll have to figure out how to work a borrowed camera, so I'll get back to this thread in a bit.

Well, I could scan mine. I've been meaning to, I just always forget. Hip Priest did show my (rather boring) artwork.

gmku 11.28.2006 04:13 PM

Hip Priest showed mine, I think, in one of the mix tapes threads.

Danny Himself 11.28.2006 04:27 PM

My artwork is always awful. I rule.

PAULYBEE2656 11.28.2006 05:05 PM

ok, ill scan in porkies during week. ive only got one so far!

Hip Priest 11.28.2006 05:56 PM

Of the two I've sent, the round one tape (recieved by Glice) had rather poor artwork; I think this was because I hadn't considered artwork at all, so it was done in a complete hurry. Sorry, Mr G. The second round one, recieved by Пятхъдесят Шест, cut and pasted, showed much improvement - I'd be happy to see that one again, Пятхъдесят Шест, since you have a scanner. Of the ones to be sent out, round 3 (my David Sylvian retrospective) looked OK, and the round four is lovely lovely lovely (same idea as round 2).


Anyway, enough waffle. I've so far recieved two.


Round one, from gmku:

 


 


Round two, from Пятхъдесят Шест:

 


 


I haven't been ble to join in round five (sorry, Danny) but I'll hopefully be back to record for round six.

Danny Himself 11.28.2006 06:12 PM

Don't sweat it, Seb.

My round four artwork was pretty nice. It had an eagle on the cover.

Пятхъдесят Шест 11.28.2006 07:49 PM

Hip Priest, your artwork for the tape I got was very good. I promise I'll get a scan of it, soon.

hey alex 11.28.2006 10:47 PM

PAULYBEE2656 11.29.2006 09:11 AM

gmku 12.12.2006 01:27 PM

I'll get on the home computer tonight and scan the covers I've received--Pookie's from a while ago, and the latest from sonicl.

Pookie 12.12.2006 01:30 PM

Alas I don't have a scanner, or even access to one, so mine will remain seen only by me.

gmku 12.12.2006 01:32 PM

Can you take digital photos of them, then download, etc.?

Yes, I'll have a go at that.

king_buzzo 12.13.2006 05:55 AM

you should have a picture of me on one of those tapes

king-buzzo 12.13.2006 06:28 AM

I have a leaky bottom.

king_buzzo 12.13.2006 06:31 AM

yes i do

Пятхъдесят Шест 12.15.2006 11:24 PM

So, my laziness has finally curbed and I've had the oppurtunity to scan the artwork of the two mix tapes I've recieved (Glice and Hip Priest), at a friends house. However, being the negligent, forgetful person I am, I only grabbed the tape I've got from Hip Priest, so Glices will have to wait.

Same candidates, back view.

I was going to post the spine view as well, but the website's clearly being a gayer.

Glice 01.20.2007 07:29 PM

Oooh, let's have a bump shall we?

porkmarras 01.20.2007 07:31 PM

Bumped!Did that hurt you Sir?

Glice 01.20.2007 07:35 PM

What? More racism?

Danny Himself 02.23.2007 12:28 PM

 


Heh heh heh..

Glice 02.23.2007 02:42 PM

Brilliance on sticks. Albeit worryingly obsessive.

sarramkrop 03.12.2007 02:13 PM

Pauly's tape:

sarramkrop 03.30.2008 01:35 PM

Bump. Anymore artwork from the previous rounds?

jon boy 03.30.2008 02:23 PM

when looking for inspiration for mixtape artwork etc i suggest looking at the nurenburg rally.
