Tom Petty Lady

This lady looks like Tom Petty. I personally don't know her, but I know one of her co-workers. I was commissioned to make these in exchange for drinks. The first on is just the lady on the cover of Down The Torpedoes. The second is her as Tom Petty and her co-workers as The Heartbreakers. Maybe not my finest Photoshop work, but funny and good enough for a couple drinks.

Birthday Balloons

I was asked to make a little photoshop thing for my friend James birthday. This is it. It will go on the facebook event page for his birthday party. I like that the balloon he's holding says sale.

Killer Apple

Mmmmmm Tasty

Titanic 9-11

I recently started a blog called photoshop battles. The first challenge was to create an image with two news worthy events from history. I chose 9-11 & The Titanic. This is the image I created. Normally I will try to avoid posting the same things here as I post there. This particular image is very interesting though. While creating it I turned off the layer that has The Hudson River and the NYC skyline. What I found was another interesting composition.This one I feel is much more ominous and very surreal. Anyway I wanted to share.

New Blog (Photoshop Battles)

I've started a new blog called Photoshop Battles. This blog has a weekly topic which people then make photoshop compositions and display them. Later we can review and critique each one. This is the header I designed for it. So check out the new blog and join in the fun if you want. We should have a topic up soon.

Batman Sketch

This is a real quick and dirty Batman sketch I did.

Obama?

So below when I say this was a quick sketch I mean it. I didn't look at it for several hours. Coming back to it I realize the right eye needs some work.
This is a quick sketch (about 15 minutes) I did based off Barack Obama's yearbook photo. It's pretty decent as far as quick sketches go. Although I am not including the original photograph here. So if you want to see how close I go to the original you'll have to search it out yourself. It's not hard to find. I also found G.W.'s yearbook photo so maybe I'll do one of him next.

NBP Photoshoping Series

It's a Monday and I'm bored at work. So I started photoshopping for fun. This first piece is copied from a Dr. Martins ad campaign in which dead rockers are wearing doc's in heaven. Here we have Joey Ramone (Seth Miller), Joe Strummer (George Frye), Kurt Cobain (Joe Stratton), & Sid Vicious (Mark Jaynes). Not Blood, Paint is in heaven.
Since they're all ghosts in the first image. I decided to make them ghostbusters in the second.
So if any of you out there have any ideas of what you would like to see NBP dressed up as next let me know and I'll give it my best shot.

Adam & Eve

I was sketching yesterday and decided I wanted to make something that looked like a comic book cover. I've been reading a lot of Batman and R. Crumb. This is inspired by Crumb for sure. I like the idea of a comic about sin, I mean nobody want good clean wholesome fun anymore. If this actually was a comic this would be the first issue. So I figured I would go with the original sin. I like how Adam and Eve look very frisky even though they haven't eaten the fruit yet.

 As you may have guessed I am not a religious person, so this is all just satire to me. I wish instead of the rolling hills I would have made it look more like a garden, but oh well.

Another MJ Tribute

I had a lot of fun working on the first Michael Jackson tribute that I did on Friday. I figured why not make another. So here is my second in a the Michael Jackson tribute series
He has such a great silhouette? All the best characters have great silhouettes.
