WOW! thanks @frequent! : ) i really love yours! if i haven´t misunderstood your previous comment, you said you´re still working on the woman? have you seen the Bond film "Tomorrow Never Dies" opening credits"? : there are girls with kind of circuits over the skin...
@ALE, thank you,man! that´s amazing! made me think on a venusian machinery for conquering earth : ) how did you make it?
the visible-grid technique is an accident produced by the short working time, but i would like to control the effect... since the title´s done by pencil on a paper, anybody know some softwate for transfer a drawing into vectors? (or hand designed typos to digital?)
Ha! That's great, happy accidents. I thought it was just one of your many techniques (I recall seeing it first on the Spiderman R/R yes?). I used a neat little program that I had actually discovered maybe a year or more ago and forgot about until recently called Groboto. It's quite different from just about any 3d package you care to name, but I see a lot of possibilities. I go into a bit more detail on DA about the piece: http://ale-nyc.deviantart.com/
Your best bet for turning your line work and hand drawn typography into vectors is probably Illustrator. Between the pen tool and Live Trace, which should do quite well with clean, solid lines like yours, you're pretty much set. Naturally the interweb is chock full of guides on this.
@ALE, thanks a lot for the information : ) i´m still working in 867MHz Power PC G4 with an OSX 10.4 yet, so i guess have to find some old Illustrator version.

Wow that takes me back, I have a blue and white 466 sitting not 3 feet from me that I just bought a new video card for so I can see what old projects I have on it. What you'd be looking for is anything CS2 or higher, I'm almost certain that machine will run cs2 if not cs3. Alternatively you can try and track down a copy of Adobe Streamline, which is what Live Trace used to be before it was folded into the Creative Suite. Drop me a line if you need more info, don't want to derail this into a tech support thread.
Very nice stuff in this R/R thread! Sadly didn't have the time to do something for it this time around… This is probably my favourite Cover Remodel so far.
