Inspiration: Hanna Barbera Land Concept Art
What a find! I worked in a theme park designing team a couple of years ago, too. This find is pure heaven to me! They must be from the late 70s or early 80s, I guess. Anyway, they're great!

Modern Life
Those modern mobile devices keep us connected, everywhere!
Lately, I kept my development artwork quite rough. These here are not finished clean-ups, but coloured roughs of sorts.
By the by, the next post will be without any antennas, almost without any ;) Anyway, did anbody enter the Eustace Tilley book bag contest? I just checked out the gallery of entries and this one is my absolute favorite piece: "Made In NYC", by CG23

I just couldn't resist your product today because of the package
I'm a great admirer of the style of magazine advertisements from the 1960s. This one here is from 1965:

Plumb Forgotten; NY Book-Bag Contest!
Gosh! Did I ever post the photo reference I used for the header of this very blog? No, I'm sure I didn't. Here you are:

Apropos! Before I forget! There is an Eustace Tilley Book-Bag Cover Contest over at The New Yorker. The deadline is Midnight on January 18th. If you're fast and talented (and a permanent resident of the US or Canada), this is your contest: "Eustace Tilley appeared on our first cover, in 1925. To celebrate our 87th anniversary, we invite readers to create a book-bag version of our iconic dandy. Twelve winners will be featured in a slide show curated by The New Yorker’s art editor, Françoise Mouly. One grand-prize winner will get their design printed on a Strand Bookstore tote bag and a $1,000 Strand shopping spree."
Those duckish and bullish Tilleys here are some older designs I did a couple of years ago for the Huckleberry Finn project (a project that never got the green), I just thought it would be nice to post them along with the info about the Eustace Tilley contest.

Toying With Gods
Well, me and my antennas... anyway, I was toying around with this piece a little, just for the fun of it. By the by, the coloured version isn't really a regular clean-up, just a, say, fast test of sorts.

Layout/BG Inspiration: 1960s Town House
A playboy's dream home. The interior quite reminds me of Matt Helm's house or "The Man from U.N.C.L.E." series, no? Anyways, beautiful colour work. Apropos 1960s layout work, don't miss Hans Bacher's latest post!

I'm in awe with this pic. I found it somewhere on the internet, unfortunately I forgot where I stumbled across it...

Espresso Solo
Since espresso is quasi an essential part of my daily design life - give me caffeine and the drawing gets better - I had to post about this machine by designer Shmuel Linski:

New Year's Warm-Up Mouse
Finally, I sat down with a pencil and paper and made this sketch, no Wacom, no Photoshop, just plain old sketching :) Hello 2012!
