a painting of robots blowing up some cars war of the worlds style


i can't say a whole lot about what brought this painting on except that i wanted to paint a robot blowing up some cars on the front lawn with a big red lazer. I did some more painting on it after this photo was taken but still it is basically the same. I want to get photoshop so i can take more pictures and be able to crop and post but it is taking some time. Peace be with you.

i know blog warrior,
it is almost wrong to like this.
it's a little under 5 feet on the largest side.
still trying to figure out ways to get sharper images as well with digital.
I hate not being able to focus.. Any suggestions beyond spending a fortune on a camera?

I dont like this but I like that you got the wherewithall to try it

reminds me of Kenny Scharf's veery early work. Or Jim Shaw. Check out new book--"First Works" I believe is title..artists give their first works they thought were real. Kenny Scharf's piece in it is cool maybe you'd like it.

You should try to make the laser more like a lazer, a more bright red.
