Hey Incubus!

Welcome to YWS!
First off, you've done a very good job in reducing the size of the picture. :)

So now, onto it.
I'm a fan of greyscale and this is very good.
The 'Darkside' typed doesn't fit in with the picture. You'll need to change the font, maybe something bols and graffiti-ish and give a slight transparency to it. Besides that, nothing much.

Keep it up.
Cheers,
~Lava

Hi incubus! Welcome to YWS!

This was a very nice picture. May I ask what medium you used to create this? I like the slightly rugged feel of the truck, but there were parts of this where it smudged a little too much, like on the windows of the truck. I also agree with lava that the "Darkside" in the picture kind of sticks out like a sore thumb. If you must keep it in, do change the font.

Thanks, and good luck. PM me if you ever post anything new.

'Ullo Incubus and welcome!

The thins that grabs me is that I'm left wondering if all that's really been done here is a grayscale, sketch effect with some layered text on top? Don't get me wrong, it's a good outcome -- besides the idea of perhaps changing the text a little and changing the opacity to 40 - 60% or something. It just seems a little simplistic. Sometimes that can be good but here I feel like you're lacking something.
Besides that I love the bluntness of the truck and the smudge rugged feels, I think it makes it look cartoony and in your face, which I love.

Keep it up,
Ben
