Biomechanical is Sexy...

Ok these are some of my favorite ones so far...can you spot the derelict?

First one has a black title block at the bottom and white type...


On this one I reversed the white and black at the bottom, my homage to the original ALIEN poster, also seen below...ENJOY!



Prometheus...further study...

A few more things inspired by Prometheus...

Banners incorporating the font I used on the poster yesterday and some familiar images...



One featuring the Trilobite...


And this my favorite of the bunch...the most realized and finished looking piece. I even threw in the tagline because I liked it so much!

1/48 Su-27...further work...and some strategy...

Intakes glued in, flaps together, getting there...



And now a little preemptive strategy...the last one I completed, the Mig-29...the nose wasn't weighted enough and the back end falls...so with the Flanker, I'm putting in some insurance in the nose cone. A small bullet head fishing weight....fits perfect...



The lead weight glued in and allowed to dry.

1/48 Su-27...coming together...

Not much to report but I did get the cockpit glued in and the two fuselage halves glued together. Some shots below...





Chip clips works wonders for making sure all the right spots are clamped together...

1/48 Academy Su-27...Ah, toothpicks...

Finally, after staring at it for nearly two months, I'm into the Flanker. Some cockpit work and prelim construction. Pretty pleased so far...more pics to come.

The cockpit..hopefully this looks realistic when put into the fuselage.





Turbofan engines painted a silver/green grey mix...prob won't see these once the intakes go on.



The workbench...looks like someone puked up a bunch of Flanker parts!

Criterion...Re-animated...

Ok, so this is a new initiative on my part. Apparently there is an entire sub culture on the web for creating fake Criterion DVD covers. Just google FAKE CRITERION if you don't believe me. Anyway, Criterion's designs are some of the best in the business, and many people have taken it upon themselves to create their own for not-so-great films. It's a fun thing to look at from time to time, especially when someone comes up with something really inspired for a really bad film. So here is my first attempt, with the help of a criterion PSD template I found online...Enjoy!

BRIDE OF RE-ANIMATOR!!!

Front...



Entire outside layout...front and back covers and spine.



The Minimalist Approach...Khan Bloodsucker!

This is an idea I've had rolling around in my head for quite some time. It may not be the best I've ever done or even finished itself, but it is nice to get something else up there after so long. Enjoy.
