Dude-that's some seriously awesome Photoshop work!  Bravo!  :banana

Beautiful!  I wish you were part of the box set art team!

Brilliant, earcandy -- bwahhhhhaaaahhah!

Love the artwork of the BB's...reminds me of Mad Magazine.  Any chance of posting a larger version of that?  I'd love to have it on a shirt.

If you click on view image (on a mac) you'll get an image three times larger.  Seeing them larger is even more impressive.  Superb job earcandy!

Wondering where the BB drawings came from?

I'm on a Mac but don't seem to have that function? Any advice?

Compliments from me too! I must admit that for a couple of seconds...  :-[   noooo, never mind   ;D

I love the detail, like the almost offhanded addition "7.03 version" that comes with H&V...

For the 90% of us who have a PC... right click on image, click 'view image', left click to enlarge.

Earcandy. Someone needs to be collecting your stuff for a book.

You should be sending your work to graphic art companies, one of whom I am sure would jump at the chance of employing you.

Without detracting from Earcandy's triumps for one nano-iota:

why do Americans so often write: Heroes and Villians? The misspelling is endemic.

I believe it was spelled that way on the '66 mock-up back cover:

It's probably been adopted by the cognoscenti in the same way that the caps/lower case "i" blend in SMiLE has, or the way those who attain the summits of all Scotland's 3000ft mountains are said to have "compleated" the Munros.

Ah, cheers John, that explains a lot!

No problemo, Heir Tickle!  :D

F*****G B*******T

 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

I can't remember where I found that cartoon pic, but I do remember how - google images search of "Beach Boys cartoons".  That's how I find most of my images to use.

Wasn't the source/cause of that spelling the handwritten song listings submitted to Capitol?  I guess they took it verbatim from the misspelling on the list?

Brilliant work, earcandy -- you may have to change your name to EYEcandy!  ;)

Fooled me for a second that's for sure  :-D

Great work.

More great stuff from Ear Candy!  

Sent your "Beatles vs Beach Boys" and "Smile on 8 Track" to a few people.  The artwork was so well done that they actually believed both.  

Keep it coming!

OK - it should say "Bealtes vs Beach Boys" in my post above!  Tried modifying it a few times, but the mod never sticks and it keeps coming back as "Peedles vs Beach Boys".  Gotta stop proofreading my messages after I post 'em!  Maybe I'll try another mod again later today.

Endemic is a massive understatement: I have a setlist used by Brian's band during the TLOS shows in September 2007 - they spell it "Heroes and Villians" too.  :o

Perhaps Brian originally wrote it as Heroes and Villians, hence it's not mispelled.

It has to be said that they're as big, if not greater SMiLE nerds than what we is!  I'm sure that on the Brian's Birthday Party rehearsals they can be heard occasionally quoting phrases previously heard on the SoT Smile sessions CDs…

Pretty cool…

I remember when Honey Combs and Alphabets had the Archies, Jackson 5 and the Osmond Brothers on flexi-discs… great memories!

If you play all of them now, you'll find they each contain SMiLE references

Ha ha - Archies backwards, "over and over the crow cries uncover the cornpuffs"!

James Joyce's Ulysses contains many references to SMiLE. The sea, the wind, the earth, fire... and if you try hard enough, some anagram of 'Leopold Bloom' or 'Buck Mulligan' will produce a big, thick reference to SMiLE.


we are all going completely bonkers here

"When combined with eggs and grits, lickety split, you're in the great shape of a balanced breakfast! The 1967 Iowa State Breakfast study, etc. etc...."

If I had the resources and time, I'd love to take this a step further using After Effects and make a whole spot!

If you have your Mac set to right click, then "right click, view image" (you can set your Mac mouse to right click in "System Preferences - Keyboard & Mouse - Mouse.   Your secondary button (which I make my track ball as) will be your right click button.

If you don't, Hold the control key and click on the image.  Them select the view image option with the cursor and release.

Many thanks indeed – I got there. Wonder what else this machine can do…?

Once again, I don't get it; I right click, but image doesn't come up. where is it supposed to be?

Cool.  I found it in a fairly HQ size on the artists flickr page.

I used the Control-click (with cursor on the image); a fresh menu pops up with several options for what you might like to do to the image – open in a new windown, fresh tab, save to "Downloads", Save as, Save to iPhoto… etc etc.  Works with links, icons, avatars too…

On a Mac, in Safari,  right-click if you have a newer mouse, or hold down the control key and click. In the popup menu, select "Open image in new window" or "Save image as.."
Easy-peasy.

Nice work; ya had me fooled for a few seconds.  I was about to make a mad dash to the supermarket until I saw all the smileys!  :lol

I've  been pulled up for spelling "villain" correctly!!!

Great artwork.
