Heavy Metal Is LAW

Generally, when I read about completely bogus claims of "disability" being recognized as legitimate by anyone, I am disgusted. However, this particular case is too ridiculous/hilarious to get upset over. Hail to Sweden.

Hangman's Hymn

This came in a week or so ago but I hadn't had a chance to post it. Here's the packaging for Sigh's "Hangman's Hymn" record out on The End. The inside collage was a nice change as I tend to usually work in muted tones and generally dark images for packaging projects. This is in stores now, check it out if you are into heavy metal. A few posts down I put up the process for making the cover, as well as some goofy shots I took to (eventually) swap in for some joke covers.

Hawthorne Heights

Here's a shirt I just did for Hawthorne Heights. This started out as a drawing of my dog that went horribly, horribly wrong. Well, wrong in the sense of looking anything like a Corgi. In terms of looking like a weird bat-wing-snakey-armpit-hair creature then I think I nailed it. Sorry Franklin!

Bloodhorse EP

Just got in copies of our new record and we're all super excited with the result. Everything is printed on uncoated stock and has a real cool texture to it despite only being 4 flat colors. The art for this was inspired by both the wallpaper found in old 70's horror movies (specifically "Psychomania") as well as the graphic identity of the 1968 Mexico Olympics. I think this turned out pretty cool.



I also finished the Bloodhorse website. It's been quite some time since I've tackled anything having to do with the web, but it was nice to change things up a bit.
