"RULES OF THE SOLAR ARMADA"
engulfed in distant bloodstreams,
red sentiment and plots,
passed down through copulation,
of an enterprise that rots.
consistency can blossom here,
provide it with belief,
we make magnetic visionaries
that ghost knights pass underneath.
sight bluefield clouds, despotic air,
assembled whilst we all stood there
constructed awe of transmutation king
that ever dark, elusive thing,
crowned Vessel-Spirit; 'in charge of might'
all future burdens, flesh and flight.
see concubines of painted law
have burrowed in your skull before."

just thought i would let you know, your artwork is incredible, its so defined, awesome, what are your rates? doubt we could afford it, but its awesome cool x
I think the Jonquil poster is my favourite out of all the posters you've done..The colours, the afrobeat style to it, i think the flow of it really matches the bands also..
