Artist's Comments

Entry for :iconchamber-magazine:'s final contest "Musical Mayhem."

This pic is sort of inspired by two things really, firstly my favourite song ever - The Beautiful People by Marilyn Manson and it illustrates some particular lines in the song:

"You cant see the forest for the trees" - The setting.
"Capitalism has made it this way" - Yuppie cannon fodder.
"You live with apes, man it's hard to be clean" - Guy in the monkey mask.

Whenever I hear the song it makes me feel like getting even with the people who make the world that little bit shittier which leads me onto my second point of inspiration - Manhunt.

As you probably all know now, Manhunt 2 was recently banned in Britain and so I feel like getting even with the censors and saying a big "Fuck You!"

So this one's dedicated to Chamber Mag going out swinging, Marilyn Manson, and the BBFC.

Kids, don't kill people, it's wrong. Even while wearing animal skin.

The Beautiful People you say *adds to download que*.
Before it was banned (and I've since heard that it's been banned almost worldwide), I did some research and I wasn't impressed with ManHunt 2 - I was enthralled by the whole Big Brother conspiracy in the first one and that whole element seems to have been removed from 2. Given the recent level of censorship over games, I'm sort of hoping that GTA IV makes it through. Not nearly as graphic as ManHunt was but I can see it being lumped together just because it too is Rockstar...

At first I too wasn't sure about removing the Big Brother/snuff movie element but after reading more into it, the game was supposed to delve deeper into the psychological element instead which I think would have been a lot creepier to play. I'm sure you'd agree the mental asylum in the first game was really atmospheric and scary? Well imagine playing that in every level. It's a shame we'll never get to play it :(

Oooh, I hadn't read about the psychological part, that would have been really cool...god damn it...
...*shudders*. I hated that level...I think I actually screamed once or twice while playing.

indeed one of your best most thot out pieces wolfie. very very very good! it looks like a cover to an actuall comic book....one i would actually read no doubt. The man guy (without the monkey shit) reminds of of elijah wood in sin city....and surprisingly enough this one is about to get his ass murdered too! good shit good shit!

I love your loyalty to the magazine....it seems like me, you and sharie are the only ones with a passion for the shit anymore. Hope you read my newest journal....i could use some feedback from someone.

The wolf guy looks like the werewolf from that comic book "Werewolf By Night". I thought this was tribute to that comic until I read the description. Very cool drawing as always. :thumbsup:
