BLOODY BEETROOTS V.2

They wanted to see what this would look like in black and white, personally I like the color better but they thought it wasn’t scary enough. I do like the way to font came out, I think it ‘pops’ more.

Forever the Sickest Kids tee

I’ve been real busy working on various projects over at Dim Mak, I’ll try to make a post on some of that soon but this post is about a shirt I made for a contest over at designbyhumans.com. The contest was to design a shirt for the band Forever the Sickest Kids and the winner gets the shirt printed and 1000 bucks.

Congratulations, We’re Dead

Well before the band broke up last week, I finished the cover and cd art for the debut album. The album ended up being an ‘internet only’ release so this was never printed and will go to the archives to collect some digital dust..
