I absolutely love this poster. The colors are great, but the figure is what really makes this poster for me. He is abstracted to a series gentle curves, yet the face remains so eerie and alien.
Yeah I was spinning plates yesterday - new blank, new shop image, post blank, open shop, add side bar links, post clue, pack orders, mail orders... collapse in heap.
I sent yours this afternoon by the way. If yesterday was anything to go by it should be with you tomorrow morning/lunch.
Let me know what you think. I was half thinking of starting a satisfied customers gallery on the shop and offer a little prize for the best pic each month.
funnily enough i was planning on posting about your site, and the impending poster on my blog...was gonna get in touch with you and ask permission to post up a couple of the shots you've used for the shop (with all the posters in view)
i'll certainly be interested in contributing to the customer testimony :)
An ongoing experiment to abstract and/or reduce film posters. Some famous, some not so famous but all cool in their own way.
How to play - a.k.a Axton's Rules with Monki Variations
Blanks will be posted Mon-Fri at 15.30 GMT. Take a look at the blank and post a guess using the comments section.
At 16.30 a clue be added to the blank.
The first five correct answers get a point each.
Unsolved posts are labelled: --- UNSOLVED ---
News posts are labelled: --- NEWS ---
Every post has a clue.
You can see how everyone is doing on the scores below.
There will be prizes of special one-off posters to the highest score at each 100 blank checkpoint and a mega-prize at the end of the year - if I haven't gone blank crazy.

ReplyDeleteHa thanks... funnily enough I spent the most time trying to get the text right on the title... the type on the poster is so weird but I love it.
ReplyDeleteAlso, if you end up printing this one in the next series, I promise I'll scrounge up the money to afford it.
ReplyDeleteGreat!
ReplyDeleteHmm, now all I've gotta do is sell this series... well things are starting to move. I was kind of thinking about doing a horror series next time.
Current contenders are:
Dawn of the Dead
The Shining
Poltergeist
Shaun of the Dead
i was panicking yesterday when the shop wasn't up at 15:30 bang on :p
ReplyDeleteif you do The Shining, i'll definitely be getting that

ReplyDelete@ Oscillik feel free to post away... as long as it's positive of course ;).
ReplyDelete@ Axton First you want discounts now you want it free. How about I stick a bundle of notes in with it? Unmarked 50s OK for you? :)
the crazies
ReplyDeleteWell, I prefer small bills, but if 50s are all you have then I guess they will do.
ReplyDeleteSheesh :)

ReplyDeleteHopefully I'm not too late on this one.
Nope, you scooped the last point.
