Russ logo design I illustrated o

Description:

If you haven’t heard of it, basically russefeiring involves an entire class of Norwegian students renting a bus (a Russebuss), painting every inch of it with really cool street art, and then partying in it night and day for an entire month during graduation.  The different classes wear their designs ever where they go as they clash with rival classes.  I’ve done a bunch of these now, and really enjoy it.

Check out the size of my Alien Pinball Backglass! Message me if you want one! A while back, I was commissioned to create a backglass for the official Alien pinball machine. But due to a gypsy curse, the company fell apart before these could be massively produced, and I never received the backglass I was promised (frowny face). But I ran into a company that produced one for me after all this time, and it's so cool! It's printed on 1/8" thick translucent acrylic, so light shines through it. I need to build a lightbox for it.We made a couple if anyone wants one.#alien #pinball #backglassart #alienpinball #translite

You may remember me posting last year that I designed the LE Alien pinball backglass. It's a long story, but the company fell apart before it was massively produced (due to a family curse), and I never received the backglass I was supposed to get :( But I found a company that produced one for me, and I just received it. It's STUNNING! 26" square, 1/8" inch thick reverse-printed on acrylic translucent plastic. The colors are so vibrant when backlit!I have it in my window right now like a demented stain-glass window. Going to build a light box for it soon. If anyone is interested in getting one, PM me.#alienpinball #pinballart #pinballartwork #pinball #pinballmachine #playfield #backglass

Client:

Unlimited Off-Road

Description:

I was commissioned to illustrate these two detailed, accurate maps for two Unlimited Off-Road Expo events, as well as the t-shirt for this gathering of die-hard jeep and atv enthusiasts. The map was a really fun challenge, as we had to piece together satellite maps, floorpans, and previous event photos to map out the event. For the t-shirt, we wanted to create something that was very hand-drawn and grungy, in contrast to a lot of the clean, photo-driven car show designs.

Client Testimonial:

Man you killed it with that one! It looks amazing!

Arctic FX

Description:

Grim Reaper gunslinger illustration I created for a vinyl graphic wrap for snowmobiles sold by Arctic FX for a new brand they are developing. I illustrated a skeleton gunslinger on the front, and a creepy western-styled Grim Reaper on the sides. I love designing for vehicles, because they are such oddly shaped canvases to fill. The new line of graphics will be branded “FlyLand Designs” in a partnership I was fortunate enough to work out with them. Feeling very privileged to be included in their stable of really skilled artists.

Description:

Logo for a gaming company called Tiki Tantrum I created of a tiki chief holding a shrunken head.

This job was perfect for me, since I love drawing tiki art so much. The client really dug the style of another tiki character I had created, so I tried my best to expand on that and make it the best one I’ve done so far. The logo is being used as the intro screen on several games and apps developed but he company.

Silver City Mobile Detailing

Description:

Vinyl boat wrap of a Sugar Skull girl with tentacles for hair and Medusa on a bed or roses I created for Silver City Mobile Detailing.

This might be the most complex vinyl wrap graphic I’ve ever worked on! So much time went into the detail of every snake, and every tentacle. To make things more complex, the size of the illustration was over 10 feet long! I created the line art in Clip Studio Paint, and then colored everything as a vector in Adobe Illustrator so everything would print nice and crisp.

Client:

New Hong Kong

Description:

The band New Hong Kong hired me to illustrate their album cover for The King Makes The Rules, showing a bunch of evil monsters sparring with a young vampire hunter.

The band wanted it to be creepy but still fun, so I kept the gore to a minimum and the colors saturated. I illustrated the mummy, werewolf, zombie, and pirate skeleton in a heavy brushed ink style, trying to emulate the amazing Tales from the Crypt covers by Jack Davis. The band was really fun to work with, and the final result ended up fitting their music perfectly.

Client Testimonial:

This looks amazing and everyone loves it. We’re super excited—it turned out amazing as I knew it would.

T-shirt design and poster I was hired to create for the popular band, the Moonshine Bandits, where I was asked to draw the band members as skeletons driving their iconic off-road limo.

We chose to take a Big Daddy Roth approach, and make the characters larger than life so we could really focus on the small characteristics (such as the tattoos, hair-styles, etc) that make them identifiable. Set up for silk-screening with under six colors.

All finished with this tiki skateboard painting I did for a private collector. First time I've done something like this, so there were a lot of stumbles along the way, but I had a great time with it.

Blocking in colors on this custom skateboard deck painting I was working on. I used some left-over black light paint for the eyes to really make them glow. You can't see it in the photo, but I used some metallic gold paint I had for the teeth, and cut it with white, so they have a really cool subtle sheen to them.#skateboardart #deckart #skaterart #deckdesign #skateboarding#tikiart #tikibar #beachart #tikitotem #surfart #tikiartist #beach

Gross and disgusting restaurant

Client:

A La Carte

Description:

Album cover design I created for the band A La Carte showing a disgusting restaurant with eyeballs, fingers, brains, rats, and even a toilet.

The band wanted me to create an album cover with a lot of gross details, as if a fine restaurant was being run by a deranged cannibal. The illustration covers the front and back cover. I also had the privilege to design the band’s logo as well, which was made to look like a goopy, drippy mess.

Client Testimonial:

We couldn’t be happier with the atmosphere you captured on this piece.

Finally getting around to creating my own brand of beach-themed merch! Just finished up the TikiCrew logo! I love that Photoshop now supports ArtBoards, it makes outputting to different versions of a file so easy.#tikiart #tikibar #beachart #tikitotem #surfart #tikiartist #logodesign‍ http://tikicrew.com/
