Modern Skirts at the 40 Watt

We just finished a poster for the Modern Skirts show at the 40 Watt this coming Friday. These guys are great , if you are in Athens Friday night you should check them out.

Laying down the color for the type.


The first pass.


The wall after the first color. These things were everywhere.


Roger starting to lay down the second color.


The wall with the finished poster, before trimming.


and finally signing and numbering. This was followed by a trip to Athens to drop them off and a big plate o' hoppin' john at Five Star Day.


Marching Hippo logo

The new Paper Steak Marching Hippo. He'll be showing up on some tees soon. Keep yer eyes peeled.

PROOFS!

Here is a shot finally of some of the test prints we have been creating. Some of them are starting to look really interesting.



Sir Gooder has arrived.

Surrounded by his infamous boxing monkeys ( the reason for his eye patch) and other vices that ultimately led to the downfall of his family's printing fortune, Sir Gooder has decided to make a long overdue appearance. A shot of the celebratory prints below.



A disastourous prom.


Here is a lesson from the learn from your mistakes crates. This started out to be an event poster for the release of Breaking Dawn. Experimental printing gone awry. In the end we sorted it out though, figured out what we were doing wrong, fixed it and managed to get a few really cool proof prints on some of the collages.




PEW! PEW! PEW!!!

So we had a chance to design a poster for an event with the author of the new Clone Wars book. Passing up a chance to return to our childhood and design a Star Wars poster was just not going to happen.

Take it easy there peanut!


So we finally got around to getting some work up on the ol' blog. Keep an eye out for the easy peanut over here. He'll be showing up on some larger prints and tees soon, and possibly some other "limited run" type things.
