Crazy Goat Flyer

I might have promised to let Biku upload this image first, but she hasn't done that yet and I just can't wait. The typeface is by her (designed from scratch and in outline) and is called Kaffe, which I think is German for coffee. Although Biku also did the layout, the rest of the elements (like the wavy lines) are mine.

I asked Jamey if he would be interested in a WWII-style poster of a mechanic holding a can of oil (maybe the old kind with the spout) but it's actually for Mercury (with logo) and contains coffee.

In an unrelated note, the Marlu walk of '06 has been postponed because I doing some moving (just my stuff going to Brampton, not me) and I'll be looking for a place soon. This is in addition to my work at Hedonics and other duties. So I'll be busy.

The Real Wrap

As much as I liked the original DVD wrap for Sheltered Life, this one is just... much better. Since there were two films, I wondered how I was going to create a composite image to represent both films. "It's too bad I can't just do one cover on each side" I thought - so I did!


This has Sheltered Life on the cover. I know it's hard to imagine what this might look like on the shelf, but try to imagine the right half (roughly) as the whole front for one side, and this...


.. parts' right halft as the front for the other side. This way the cover would open the same way from both sides. In effect, no front or back.

I think this must have been printed and released by now, so if you've seen one and know me, please let me know.

By the way, in case you're wondering if the colour motif has something to do with a certain famous American gang rivalry, it doesn't. Nor do the films.

Oh yeah...

I just remembered. I have both of the DVD wraps I did for Adam Reid. Here is the first one. The background images in the background are really cool looking together, but the type covers them up. I like this one a lot, but the next one is better.

Crazy Goats Need a Home...

I'm sure Jamey won't mind a little advertising so here goes. This is a sneak preview of the baby and goat (caffeinated) that will be used in the first Mercury Espresso Bar flyer, due out soon. In case you're wondering Mercuary Espresso is a new establishment (under a month old) that is located on Queen St. between Logan and Carlaw on the south side.

The goats name is Kaffa and the baby's is Mercury Espresso. The flyer will be viewable soon on *insert subplot here* for anyone who's interested in seeing the final version - which will include some of Biku's excellent type work.

Best part is that the solo goat will be a mural in the Espresso Bar soon! Hopefully, this will be one of my murals that will actually avoid being painted over within a month. Though I won't be painting it myself. Alos hopefully, they will use some kind of stencil as I am quite proud of the new (Adobe Illustrator) techniques I have used it this piece's execution.

I strongly recommend seeing the full sized version of this one as there are many small details not noticeable at this size.
