Dirk and Terry T-shirts

With the Dallas Mavericks tearing up the postseason this year, I’ve been inspired to create two Mavs t-shirts. The first is a german crest design in honor of the giant hun who has been challenging NBA records of late and the second celebrates mister 4th quarter himself, the jet. Both of these shirts are available to order from my zazzel store.

Lord Ganesh and friends

Here is a work that I was hired to do based on a concept provided by the client. The client plans on giving this poser to a friend of his as a gift. I don’t get a lot of work like this, non-commercial commissions, but I really enjoyed working on itan d i hope i get to do more. I would have enjoyed it much more had i not been sick this week, also it would have taken me much less time. If you like the Ganesh poster, I will be making it available in my Zazzel online store. It was designed as a 22×16 poster but i might end up putting it on a t-shirt. Enjoy!

the return of the Confederate Walrus!

Here we have the Confederate Walrus making his second appearance on a Tales of Fiction cover. The bastard son of a racially insensitive hill billy from the mountains of west Virginia and a particularly attractive walrus, this creep travels the world spreading his message of southern pride through the use of his two balled up flipper-fists. Because, as this monster is fond of saying, “only queers use words.”

Once again we dip into the vault of nonsense that is the back catalogue of Strange Adventure magazine. Here we have the classic “The Man with the Head of Saturn!” It’s not as brilliant as the Gorilla Witch, I don’t think, but wow. Strange Adventures must have been a pretty great place to work back in the day.
Writer – “Is this idea too stupid to publish?”
Editor – “of course not, can we put an eye patch on him?”
Illustrator – “I just did, high five!”

Even more Tales of Fiction!

Here is the fourth installment in the Tales of Fiction comic cover/T-shirt series. I had originally meant to title this image “Fungus in the Sun–Terror in the Sand!” but thought that maybe the “bikini girls” title was a little more fun than the fungus pun.

I wanted to show an example of the comic book style that I am parodying/celebrating, so i found an excellent example in the DC title “Strange Adventures.” This is also a prime example of how no matter how silly or exaggerated I make my mock covers, nothing can every really top the nonsensical brillance of the real thing. In this issue the Gorilla Witch! Just fantastic.

The Red 100′s show poster

Web version of a flyer/poster i made for the good men of The Red 100′s. They asked for something with indians, motorcycles and the grand canyon. They also asked for some police cars in the background, but i thought the composition was getting a bit crowded.

Band Logo for The Red 100s

My client asked me for a logo that incorporates ‘Indian like’ drawn eagle wings with a bit of rock and roll, black leather, skulls, motorcycle kind of thing and a Jack Daniel’s label. I delivered several sketches and he picked the drawing below. I used to do a more finished logo which you can see below that.

Immigrant Punk band T-shirt

T-Shirt for band called Immigrant Punk. As part of the design i created an immigrant punk flag and logo. The color scheme will be dictated by the printing options which have yet to be determined.

The Bride of Lichtenstein

I enjoyed doing the other lichtenstein inspired Tshirt so much that i decided to another homage to the pop artist. Enjoy!
