Welcome to the Jungle......SHOWTIME!

Yesterday was like 2000 all over again Painted a wall with Madone, then went to a Romen Rok, and the GZA show. Mad got me out of retirement after 2 years of not painting walls.Was super rusty but i had a good time painting, also got to see some old friends .  Mad killed it as usual, he had a vendetta to wage and smashed the wall. All i can say is "welcome to the jungle" check the pics after the jump.

Hulk vs Ironman fan Art

I liked how much the Ironman remix came out and decided to finish it into a complete concept. I learned so much working on this, and feel more than confident to start working on some of my own original characters. Not to sure where I'm going with this type of work but it is a lot of fun to create. You can check the full image after the jump.

SAFER Logo

 This is a Logo I recently developed for a student  program at Brown University. Made a ton of variations that you can view after the jump.

Inspiration: David A Smith - Sign Artist

It truly is frustrating that our society is so susceptible to the tricks that so called popular culture plays on us. We spend so much time and energy caring about talentless individuals on the news and reality TV, while true masters go unnoticed.  I wanted to share this short(14min) documentary I watched about David A Smith.

"David A Smith is a name that has become synonymous in Sign-Writing and Glass gilding circles, with high quality, hand crafted reverse glass signs and decorative silvered and gilded mirrors.

In this short documentary, we reveal behind the scenes work, techniques and visions that Dave uses when carrying out his passion as a glass embosser - One of the few remaining traditional UK glass artists.
" .

This doc was very inspiring/ motivating for me, hope it has the same effect on you. Go make stuff!

IDJ App Website

IDJ App website I created for Numark. Here are two comps I came up with for the microsite. Personally i feel the first design was much better/unique than the one they chose, but that is usually the case.  I believe the critique was that it looked "Too much like a site for DJing". A site called IDJ looking like it was for DJing, how could I make such a foolish mistake?!

Hulkbuster Ironman: Digital Painting Practice

My First attempt at messing with Digital Painting. I'm always trying to add to my skill set when it comes to Digital graphics. Being able to create concept art for movies or games has always been something i wanted to try out.

Warmachine digital concepts

These are some concepts I created based on the Warmachine franchise.  It was my first attempt in trying to create some matte paintings. Warmachine is a tabletop steampunk wargame produced by Privateer Press. I have never played the actual game but I’m a huge fan of the character design.
