Oi cheers mate, really appreciate it! I found that it's quite hard to find any clear info online on the processes etc of making artwork in a metal sorta aesthetic, so am attempting to remedy that by sharing what I know. Thanks again pal, I hope these tutorials have been beneficial to ya!
@@SpearheadMedia madlad. I prefer your course of actions as compared to the communal bitching most designers (myself included sometimes) resort to when it comes to the lack of resources for non-corporate design work. Dig bro. From Sri Lanka btw, so best believe you have a fan all the way out there. Feel free to check my insta out as well, been designing metal/tech shit for a while now. @ohm.exe
@@fader_exe nice one buddy, really appreciate the encouragement. I hope to keep going with these as long as they're benefitting people. I checked your Instagram there man and got you on it, great stuff - stay in touch mate and take care 🙏🙏
Dude! This is so awesome! I have been working professionally as a Photo-retoucher for nearly 20 years now and you bring this relaxed atmosphere to the process I've lost many, many years back! Love the look! Love your logos as well! Glad that I'm living in the same country as yourself! (I'm Dutch originally) So much beauty and goodness all around us here!
Mate I'm so glad to hear this, I really appreciate the kind feedback and I'm delighted you're enjoying the videos 🙌 got plenty more in the works too dude! Ah that is awesome mate, the Netherlands is such a beautiful place too - I loved all the time I've spent there. But you're right, there's no shortage of inspiration around us here in Ireland! Cheers again mate, I hope you enjoy my future vids too - hope to hear from ya again! 🤝🤝🤝
@@SpearheadMedia I've subscribed so I'm sure I will be back here! Btw, if you're ever short for background music, either Synthwave of metal, I produce a lot of it myself. I'll gladly hook you up with loopable stuff if needs be! (No charge)
Ah unreal boss, cheers for that! I've got a good few new videos in the works that I can't wait to release (gotta power through the day job stuff before working on the vids in the evenings! Haha), so that would be absolutely savage! If ya have any tracks that you think might suit I'd love to check em out - you can hit me up via email any time pal. Cheers again! 🤝🤝🤝
@@SpearheadMedia Ahhh, the daily grind... I know. Well, I'll make a selection and send them to you. You just see what you use! And if none is of your liking, that's fine too. And thank you for your videos and assets!
Holy shit this is awesome! Probably way better and easier than what they could've done in the early 90's. I kinda do this stuff on my phone but it's much more primitive and tricky to do and I can't get as complex an image with all the layers and effects. Really appreciate the tutorial!
100% mate, we are blessed with easy access to technology that can replicate the old cut, paste and Xerox methods of back in the day. That's sick you make designs on your phone, stoked the tutorial can help with some processes! Best of luck ⚔️
@@SpearheadMedia one of my favorite bands Samhain did the xerox thing back in the day, he'd use photos of each band member and different objects and image and xerox them till they blended together of totally looked like something else. I know you're probably busy but I hope you make more tutorials some day! Thanks for the awesome content!
THIS! THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR!! I've wanted to do the photo-bash/digital collage style for metal ever since I first stumbled on this guy named thepitforge. His shit is rad and so is yours! Thanks so much for giving me a place to start! Stay kvlt! \m/
Love to hear it mate, and pitforge is the absolute goat! Big fan Daniel and all of his work. Hope this lil tutorial helped you get started with photobashing some gritty artwork!
Thanks so much pal, really glad you dig the vids! 🙌 I do indeed, currently I'm using a Huion Kamvas and an older Wacom Intuos between work and home. The Wacom Intuos could be a great starter drawing tablet if you're looking to get one. They are very robust and can be picked up cheaply second hand online!
@@SpearheadMedia I really appreciate the answer! I've been trying to get around graphic design for some time now- the graphic tablet tho... I always feel like Im not worthy getting one yet and end up doing literally everything with my mouse or a trackpad (which isnt perfect...)
@@antekbojarczuk9006 Haha I know the feeling dude, for my first 2 years of design college I was doing everything with the trackpad too! But it is great training, because when you're learning to work with trackpad then when you get the drawing tablet your work will be x10 times faster and precise! Wishing you all the best with it mate, and if you have any more questions please don't hesitate to gimme a shout here, I'll be more than happy to try help you 🤝🤝🤝
Man i'm binge watching all your videos, keep up the good work you're helping a lot! That art you could sell it to avenged sevenfold really :p their logo is a skull with wings like that
You can quickly select a whole layer by holding control and left clicking the thumbnail of the later in your layers panel mate. It's a fantastic time saving trick
So sick bro! Can you do like a beginners one? I’d love to be able to design a hardcore logo but have no clue how to do it or what you’re doing lmao it’s so sick to watch tho
Hi mate, yeah absolutely - you can hit me up at @spearheadirl on Instagram or spearheadmediairl@gmail.com to chat about your idea. Hopefully I can help ⚔️
Hell yeah mate! A good starting point would be to go out and take some pics of gnarly buildings and landscapes and build up a setting from there and then the ideas should start rolling. Wishing you all the best with making some cool death metal art boss 🤝

Awesome, I picked up some solid tips. Thanks
Really happy to hear that buddy, got loadsa cool vids in the works that I hope continue to help 🤝
If you stop the video at 8:00 you've basically made an early-2000s Pen & Pixel Southern Hip Hop album lol
are those asset packs still available? looks like the link is broken
Dude this artwork is massive! How much time did you need to finish?
You are cool!!! thank you
You're cool for checking out the vid! Hope it helped buddy ⚔️
Man i'm binge watching all your videos, keep up the good work you're helping a lot! That art you could sell it to avenged sevenfold really :p their logo is a skull with wings like that
Nice one mate, I'm really happy to hear that they've been helping you out with your artworks! Oh yes it actually does - and the Overkill logo too 🙌🙌
this tutorial was ridiculously inspiring, thanks king 🙏
Delighted to hear that mate, really hoped it helped ya with your artwork! 🙌🙌

You're a genius man! Amazing suff!
You're a legend man! Can't wait to make you a logo for your drumming channel 💕
So fucking sick 🤘. You’re a master at your craft
Thanks so much for the kind feedback dude! Really appreciate it, and I hope this vid helped ya out with your artwork
It looks like a Belphegor's cover
This is similar to the Avenged Sevenfold 'Hail to the King' artwork.
Hey mate, I'll take it ⚔️
@SpearheadMedia Great job though. Very well designed.
how are you selecting the objects so fast? like the skeleton and sword
You can quickly select a whole layer by holding control and left clicking the thumbnail of the later in your layers panel mate. It's a fantastic time saving trick
Потрясно!!!
Thanks so much mate!
do you have a photoshop link that you use?
Hi mate - what sort of link do you mean? I just used the Adobe Creative Cloud for all of my work!
Rad channel
So sick bro! Can you do like a beginners one? I’d love to be able to design a hardcore logo but have no clue how to do it or what you’re doing lmao it’s so sick to watch tho
Cheers boss, I will hopefully get round to making another hardcore logo tutorial in the near future so keep an eye out 🙌🙌 nice one mate!
@@SpearheadMedia cheers lad appreciate you! Hardcore logo for dummies 😭😭😭
@@INTROBUST really appreciate the support boss 🙏 I've got that on the list for ya!
This is Cool!
Thanks a mill boss!
you are fucking under rated my man
Ah thanks a mill buddy, that's really kind of you 🙌
Awesome Brother 👍🏻
Nice one mate, appreciate it!
Can you pls provide the link for that skeleton and its parts image btw? Couldn't find it anywhere smh
Sure thing mate - I got these on Envato Elements. It is pretty expensive, but there is some cool stock stuff on there;
elements.envato.com/
Tysm found some pretty cool stuf there haha
@@meridianstudios444 great to hear it mate - some good stuff on there but super pricey sadly.
I'm learning so much from you
That rules mate, delighted to hear that my vids are benefitting you 🙏 I hope to continue making em ⚔️
@@SpearheadMedia Please do! There's nothing quite like your channel, and this stuff is amazing!
@@milesyalzin2018 that's super kind of you to say boss! Ill make more of these death metal style tutorials for sure 🙌🙌
genius work
Thanks so much pal, really appreciate it!
Great artwork, but it definitely doesn't look like an "old school death metal" album cover. Ig it is more suitable for phonk than actually metal
wow🔥🔥🔥
Thanks kindly mate!
sickkk
Nice one buddy!
🍕pizza
Garlic bread 🥖
Brother could I commission you to do a cover for me? Let me know!
Hi mate, yeah absolutely - you can hit me up at @spearheadirl on Instagram or spearheadmediairl@gmail.com to chat about your idea. Hopefully I can help ⚔️
Reminds me of Avenged Sevenfold
Have you seen the overkill logo that the AX7 logo was based on? I't a ripper!
@@SpearheadMedia Yeah I have.
THANX for sharing all this amazing knowledge...you fuckin' rock!!!🤘
Awh cheers mate, I really hope this has helped you with making some sick digital art! Wishing you all the best going forward boss 🤝⚔️
Turning trash beaches into art hell yeah
hello could you do a black metal design please
Yeah I'll deffo be doing some black metal stuff in future. What sort of style were you thinking of?
@@SpearheadMedia I like the style of venom mayhem and early bands of the genre
Sweet - do you mean logo work or album art? I'll put it on the list for video topics to get through 🙏🙏
@@SpearheadMedia thanks for you reply bud could I be cheeky and get you to do one of both thanks, there is not a lot of metal design tutorial about
Absolutely mate! I've stuck both ideas on the list there - will hopefully get round to making them over the next few weeks 🤝🤝
All I can say is WOW. I ned a death metal cover and dont know where to start....
Hell yeah mate! A good starting point would be to go out and take some pics of gnarly buildings and landscapes and build up a setting from there and then the ideas should start rolling. Wishing you all the best with making some cool death metal art boss 🤝
Makes Death 💀 Metal Cover Art… doesn’t have Death 💀 Metal music 🎵 in the background…. Hmmm
Gotta keep it family friendly somehow eh!
@@SpearheadMedia Not really, if I’m making a Death Metal Cover Art 🖼 for an album 💿 I play Death Metal regardless of what people think.
Wow, how very metal of you 🤘
@@SpearheadMedia Been listening to Metal for years.
this doesn’t look “old school”. old school ones were hand drawn and shaded
pls can you do album cover for me i give 1€
DON'T SHOOT F14!!!! :'((((
