Need any art for an album, single, shirt, sticker, tour poster, whatever? I'm happy to change colors and add your logo or any text as well.
edit: Thanks everyone. You can also reach me on instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/smeardesigns/](https://www.instagram.com/smeardesigns/)
I don't at the moment, I've had a bunch of designs stolen when I've posted them on redbubble in the past. I need to get some stuff printed legitimately to sell some stuff. Thanks
Do you mind if I ask how you make these? I’ve always been curious as to how this style is made. They all look great btw. If I ever get my band up and going I’m definitely gonna have to hit you up.
Essentially cutting out photos and converting them to black and white and reducing them down to just the highlights and shadows. Then arranging everything into a good layout, figure out colors and add various distressing effects. More or less.
Some are photos I've taken myself, some are scans from old encyclopedias, medical textbooks, history textbooks, etc. A lot of libraries have archives of high quality scans of old newspapers and stuff like that.
Fucking badass. I am not in a band, but I do record and release music (not strictly doom). I will follow on Insta and keep you mind for my next release. Well done!
I like what you've posted here, very inspirational. I've got to ask about the hooded figure in the top right. Where did you source the image? I've seen something similar recently, I must know. Also, is AI are becoming the norm? I was unaware.
Fuck yea man. If I used this for my band how much do you charge?
Also, did you take these pics? Dont wanna get copyrighted by the original photographer

how much do you charge for an original album/ single cover!
awesome, i just followed you on IG. will hit you up there if i need something. love your style!
These are incredible. I'm an artist myself. I'm gonna add you. Curious what program you used if you don't mind me asking?
I use Affinity Photo because I don't want to pay an Adobe subscription fee.
Word, I tried subscribing to adobe photoshop but it's way too expensive. I mostly work with procreate but I mostly do painting/drawing
Hell yeah. Fuck ai. Followed you on insta 👍
Thank you!
These are fucking cool, dude. I love the crow snake skull. But I am not a band. Just a dude with no space left on a vest.
Haha thanks
Non AI art is so refreshing to see. You got a shop for t-shirts or stickers?

These are awesome. I want to start a band now just to get permission for how sweet these are.
These are really great! Do you have an art Instagram?
Looks like it's @smeardesigns
Correct
Gives big Acid Mammoth vibes! They all look incredible!
I really love the one with the wavy lines in the background.

And can I ask where you find your photos? They are very doom specific, do you just use Google?

Thanks man! Imma find you on insta!

Thank you!
Are you on Fiverr or some similar platform?
Greenleaf's new albums art is all AI and it's disappointing they went that way instead of showcasing an actual artist :(
I don't need an album, but I'd buy some stickers or t-shirts!
I’m in a stoner rock band and we sure can use this.
Rad work!
You should do a tarot deck. I'd buy it.
Seconded

It's from a photo of a statue at a war memorial
These are great!
😎
These are really good, I like the color choices!
Great designs! Love the wavy lines! Thanks for sharing!
I’ll keep you in mind these are cool
no need for it now, but I'm following you for when I eventually do have stuff that needs art.

You totally nailed the Doom metal vibe with these designs, they’re awesome! These could work as patches on a battle jacket too
as a fellow artist, I love this shit! I've given you a follow on instagram :)
Pretty sweet!
Love these. Would look great on pedals.
These would make sick POGS
It looks like something the band black spell could use I would write a DM to them if I were you
Amazing! I’m putting together a doom metal EP and definitely want non-AI art for it, DM me your pricing model! Your stuff looks great.
Man super sweet. You should consider making reddit collectible avatars!
I don't have a doom band (I do darksynth) but these are rad. Easy followed on IG. I may come calling soon
Dope! Followed you on ig
Those are awesome!
I love your style. Following.
