Thanks to Muzo for the stock photo.
LOTS of masking going on here. I believe at some point I had to mask my masks. I hope you like. Constructive comments are most definately welcome. (5 years and 3616 days ago)

please don't tell me this isn't related to the lyrics, the mood of the pic has followed the theme of the song: living your life... please please view in hi-res, and comment on the pic itself instead of the lyrics.

the pic was inspired by Alberto Seveso's sperm shaping tecnique with my own understanding.

this was kinda finished in a rush cause I'm on a trip till wednsday, I'll enhance it and add sbs then.

source found on deviantart under stock section, vector shapes created in illustrator.
I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain
Once you go there was never
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become

Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

Tuckinator says:

awesome

GolemAura says:

this is really a neat piece.. I'm definately going to wait for the SBS before I vote.. very interesting and different

magicsteve says:

This image seems very appropriate for the song. I'd love to see an SBS on this, but even as is I love it! The only criticism I have is the shadow of her hair touching the coat's collar. I would clone that out if I were you. In any event, nice work!

OliviasArts says:

it is how YOU see the song, so dont stress I think its a good peice of work goodluck.

hymerion says:

this is great - the "construction" looks so real! I could swear it is handy-made, and you just took a picture of it

helenm says:

Really nice and interesting piece. Like it, Love it. Would agree though with magicsteve, I would clone the hair out as well as her helmet strips.

RGB says:

Nice song and nice chop!!! good luck!

akasha says:

awesome; I love this effect; you've done a great job with Alberto Seveso's style

Akassa says:

Really nice, i love the way you made up this, so unique and nice looking Viva la vida with colors

Warlock [banned] says:

Great looking image,Nice work!

bddesign says:

this seems like a good start.. i think your a bit hard on the shadows, and the details from the skin are almost invisible. this style of work is VERY hard to make look professional. but you did alright. could use some work though. (i have never really done this type of work before, so i cant really give you any tips on how to truely improve this sorry)

author says:

sorry guys, I'm on a computer without photoshop right now, gonna upload sbs+enhance pic tomorrow afternoon.

vladimir735 says:

AMAZING JOB !!! :O

author says:

again, please, please view in hires, I know I'ts an awkward reason but I broke my eyeglasses and I can't work on this too much more, SBS is short, but I'm actually thinkin about writing a detailed tutorial and post it here, because I think many are hoping to learn this tequenique.
