The Tambourine Man responds... by Scott Robinson
Hmmm, I might explain this a little, as it`s just a bit of fun really
I`ve been working a lot recently, probably too much to be healthy.. Maybe it’s taking it’s toll on my brain or something.
So as I was working away last night, it was late, and I had some Bob Dylan on in the background to try to keep me focussed.
I`d struck a bit of a wall, and “tambourine man” was playing.. I found myself responding to Bob`s request for a song.
“Sorry Bob, but I think that`s enough songs for one evening.. don`t you?”
Then this image was in my head, and I stayed up another bunch of hours doing this.
So there you go…

Sleep deprivation produces wonders, eh mate? Great stuff (love the halftones in this one especially – beautiful stuff!)
I wasn`t sure about this really, just one of those “had to get it out” type of things.. Glad you`re enjoying it though!

I like this
but a piccy of bob Dylan being assinated wouldn’t be that bad.
If anyone was beyond his use by date it’s that guy.
But I digress.
Are you over taking sjem as the half tone king?
True, I`m not a Dylan fan.. But it was late, I was too lazy to change it.
I`m not taking over anything as far as I`m aware, but I am really, really enjoying the halftone process, it`s such fun, and the end product is quite nice i think…

i love everything about this, including the choice of green and the use of halftones. the hat is a great touch too. absolutely superb!
Ha! The green.. I debated that.. mucho debate in my head. I think it works though, I don`t use green often enough.
Dylan was a hat man wasn`t he? hahaha

Awesome Scott. Love the halftone shading.
Bhahahaa ………………… just saw the tags.
great design! like everyone else, I’m loving the halftones too! haha
Cheers Will.. It cracks me up when people dig my obscure/tangent ones..

wow, the halftones here dude – very very nice. linework is just perfection as always – im sure you get sick of hearing that but seriously dude, very nice lines. I especially like the linework on the lower leg of the pants – real flare happening here, and combined with the halftone it just totally moulds in together. I have just started using halftones myself after the challenge you guys setup on Revolution group and I must say Im kinda hooked on them too now, so will certainly be using them in some up and coming designs. I have to say you a really do provide some inspiration here at RB… but dude dont get a big head like the tamberine man, im sure you have your limits … somewhere dammit!!!
Damn Zomboy, thanks for your kind words.
I just dig lines you know? All types of lines.. I study them you could say.
And i`m really, really glad to hear the Challenges are working out as being beneficial to you, they are to me too.. I guess that`s what it`s all about. I`ll be keeping my eyeballs open for your new stuff.
As far as inspiration goes, You ALL inspire ME!.. I guess it`s the community here that makes this place rock, and damn do I have some limits, I just keep whacking my head against them until one of us breaks! hahahaha
