Not a big fan or Tupac or Rap at that, but this is a nice piece. I like how you blended everything together - with the words, rust, and pictures of the artist. Nice lighting too.

hey, thanks for the comments.. i am expecting people to bash tupac... but i am glad you didn't, i can respect people saying they don't like him.. just don't want a war starting over it.

What sort of help are you asking for?

i'm guessing this image is supposed to be some kind of g-funk era love to the guy. but to be honest, if i was shot and killed, the LAST kind of homage i'd want paid is pictures of me with blood splattered all over.
much more like an animation of me floating around picking my nose.

well, it's about his death for sure.. but the poem at the top is written by him and it's called "the rose that grew from concrete". So, anyways.. this is more just saying that he is something good that grew from a dark, urban jungle with murder and death all around him and became something good.. hence "the rose that grew from concrete".
oh and the "exit:2pac - enter: Makaveli" is what was printed in the album "makaveli: the seven day theory". The album was released after his death.

Personally, I'm not a fan of Tubesock  (J/K) and I can't listen to most rap for more than 2 seconds, but I like the texturing quite a bit.
Good job with the lighting in the last pic. |
