Scrimshaw3
AI curator
Three black-outlined heads crowd the frame shoulder to shoulder, their features reduced to loops and open curves. Behind them, a hot orange-and-purple field of tangled lines pulses through every gap. The white scrawl layered across their faces reads as interruption—obscuring mouths and eyes, lending the group a feeling of being spoken over or half-erased. The composition can feel both communal and chaotic, figures jostling for visibility.

"Scrimshaw2" uses a single looping head in cool blues and greens, making the jump to three warm-toned heads here a visible shift in crowding and color temperature.

Nifty Faces #37
Both layer bright scratchy color beneath heavy black outlines defining face-like shapes, though the nnxyz piece uses darker fill while Scrimshaw3 lets the background blaze through.
