Sixth in the MAZEXTRA Serles ends on high note. More bokeh, Jessica Stam for DKNY yada yada.

The cross is reclaimed in true Uncanny X-Men fashion. The composition is fun and alarming. I just want those shapes to stretch to the top and bottom edges.

The colors and the rocket shapes interplay nicely.At the same time it’s a little serrated in view of the severed arm in the upper left corner. Just laughable so. Not gruesomely so.

Here the positive space fights for sight. The negative space spars nicely. It unites both.

I just finished pulling all the pieces for the new series. Twenty-one images in total. I realized while pulling them that I could potentially end up with sixty-three images. Maybe.

That is if I use all three variations of each image. I think I will have to see how that works out for each one. Cutter/plotter cooperation is key.

I also need to come up with contingency plans if it doesn’t cooperate. I guess it will be as much of a process as the last series.

I bring all this up because I wonder what kind of EXTRAS will happen in the next set. Maybe some more showable pieces like these, I hope.
