Description This image all started off as a drawing where I printed out the alphabet in the Georgia typeface, I then picked letters that I liked and drew around them. You can see the orginal here: [link] The drawing was tehn vectored in illustrator, and finnished off in Photoshop.
This was just going to be black and white, but I started playing around with some colour ad I quite liked it.

The style of drawing around/over typefaces is inspired by an designer called 'si scott', i'd link his site if I could find it. I was also inpisred to do this kind of drawing after seeing one of digitalshock's works. [link]

indeed very reminiscent of the cuy doing the casio adverts ect while its very nice it strikes me a very "one trick pony" style. But as usual a great sense of compostion and style though i think i prefer the B&W version

I have the same thoughts about his style too, so right now im trying to think of ways I could move it forward in a different direction. Thanks for the comment

Sick work; very lively and energetic, yet so... dark. That gaussian blur tops it off though.
I'm digging this. A lot.
