ILLUSTRATIONS
& DESIGNS

This was originally a piece for self-promo but the t-shirt became useful for whatever I needed it for.
I love Tokyo, I love Creativworks (was originally going to use that for a comany name), I love Tower Records (although I got a little nervous about liscencing-rights for godzilla etc.so I used the robocard illustration as a Tower-Records-Promo-Card instead)

This is just a big copy of the image from all the posters etc. for the movie Congo that went into a window display.
Usually for something this big I start with the Airbrush for all the gradations ..then Block in the larger flat areas with straight acrylic or whatever i'm working with ...then clean-up some of the details with colored-pencils (the airbrushed surface usually creates an eggshell finish which is a great surface for the pencil to adhere to)
The display consisted of the backround image and jungle leaves made of railroad-board covering the flooring.

nope this is not 3D ..it's another airbrush done on foamboard.
( hey we had alot of that lying around )
I forget what the project was ..I think it was some kind of egyptian books display.

I threw this down here for variety but it really goes better in the "portraits" section.
I did alot of drawings like these when I was 18 - 25.
I think i'm gonna get back to doing more of these again ..alot cheaper material costs (no motors etc.)
