I've got two spare tickets for the gig tonight if anyone's willing to take them off my hands. I won't accept money for them, but I feel they should go to Frost* fans at least. I will be at the White Lion pub for some pre-drinks, so just ask if you see me there. I don't have mobile web here, so it's a little late for PMs now.

Can't wait till tonight! See you all there

Hello chaps.

Haven't chimed in for a while, but I have been paying the forums a visit every now and again. I've been working on an image I would like to share with you. I make these kinds of images once in a while (last one was two years ago), but this one has been in my head for quite some time, and I've been unable to draw/edit it until now. Started on it yesterday, so it took me about 26 hours from start to finish, including breaks and sleep. So maybe closer to 10 hours total.

Anyway.

I'm not completely satisfied with the end result, it did indeed deviate from the image in my mind. However, it did capture most of the elements I was trying to incorporate, so I'm happy about that. Keep in mind I have only used Photoshop for the most basic editing in the past, so this was my first attempt at doing something different. I've been using various tutorials online to get the effects I wanted, but currently I lack the (professional) tools, skills and knowledge to improve it. Any suggestions would be welcomed. Feel free to use it as your wallpaper or whatever you wish, I even have one cropped to fit the iPhone so I could finally change my old wallpaper on it (it was the same 2-year-old image). I will also add a picture of the drawing if you are interested in seeing what I started out with.

Due to the file size limit, I will upload a .zip file (7 MB) containing the different aspect ratios (they're quite large, ~2 MB each, in order to accommodate the larger screens). Just unzip and select the one that fits your screen, and you should be set. //http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YMAPONYL

Enjoy!

P.S. This image was produced 100% while listening to Frost*

Hello good folk!

I'm back again after a long period of silence, this time to show off the fruits of labor from the other thread I created a while back. I know some of you wanted to see the actual tattoo (as long as it wasn't going to be placed someplace naughty), so here are a couple of pictures, on the house.

They are over at my blog where I wrote a small piece about the whole experience and I plan to spend the day working on a more colorful image that I'll post on my blog later, if you want to check that out here.

Thank you all again for the kind help you provided, it was much appreciated.

[black, straight-edged Frosterisk?]

Hello.

I've been lurking the forums a bit, but this is the first time getting my feet wet. I've actually come looking for some help with a big decision I'm taking in the near future, which is getting a tattoo of the Frosterisk.

Now, I've been thinking about it for a while now and I'm getting more and more confident in having it, I just need to have a chat with the local tattoo parlor to make sure I'll go through with it (it's a big decision). But before I do that I want to provide them with the motif and that's where I need some help.

I'm going to have a pure black, straight-edged Frosterisk on my upper right arm. Problem is, there is no such incarnation of the Frosterisk I have seen so far. Most of them have the "spray can"-look and most normal asterisks have six points. I've tried drawing it myself, but I'm not completely happy with it. This is why I'd like the "official" shape and dimensions so that I can be absolutely happy with my upcoming tattoo.

So, is there anyone who can provide me with a black, straight-edged Frosterisk?

Your help is much appreciated.
Cheers!
