Thor
May 2010
So Iron Man 2 rocked the house, and I had a full-on gasm in response to that scene at the end credits. Talk about revving up the hype machine. So I touched up a screen capture of the scene from a pirated YouTube video and put together a nice free teaser poster for director Kenneth Branagh and company. You're welcome, gents. Now give us a trailer.

Avatar
March 2010
I loved the ever-living hell out of Avatar, but never felt the film's poster campaign lived up to its insane visuals. Thus, yet another visual love letter to Drew Struzan, and what I believe is my best attempt yet at aping his style. The image is intended for a forthcoming Blu-ray cover, but I decided to produce a full theatrical banner as well.

The Dark Tower
September 2009
Having finished Book III, I produced a second movie poster collage, this visual love letter to King's series and the work of the great Drew Struzan, whose style I've heavily appropriated here. The cast again features Nathan Fillion as the Gunslinger, with supporting cast including Zoe Saldana, Ray Winstone and Heroes' Milo Ventimiglia. This piece represents roughly a week of digital painting, and I was very pleased with the result.

Cowboy Bebop: The Movie
September 2009
So the word has been out for a while that Keanu Reeves really wants to make a Cowboy Bebop movie. Visionary that I am, I couldn't help putting together something that anime fans might consider a worst-case scenario all-star cast. Offered here are three individual character posters, plus one 'final one-sheet'. And skeptical though I may be about the actual movie, let's face it, I'll be in line day damn one to see it.

Prez
August 2009
I normally don't do political artwork, but then simple portraiture isn't political right? That said, I am a fan of our 44th. This was originally made for a commissioned marketing flyer that I was never asked to finish (I guess the event was canceled or something...and just to clarify, Obama himself was not involved). Obviously done with a hint of Shepard Fairey.

Calvin & Hobbes
June 2009
A 'just for laughs' venture. Bill Watterson would never let a C&H film get made, so stop worrying. And even if a C&H film were producable, I'd rather see it animated (by Pixar or Studio Ghibli) than live-action; but if live-action were the requirement, I'd have Hobbes be animated a la Roger Rabbit instead than CGI'd like Garfield.

Space Odyssey
June 2009
A quasi-non-movie poster, inspired by Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey - which I had recently seen (I don't know what the hell I saw, but I saw it) - namely the image of the monolith and the über-coloful 'stargate' sequence.

James Bond 23: Risico
June 2009
Casino Royale kicked ass, Quantum of Solace followed suit. So I'm looking to the inevitable future of Daniel Craig-branded kickassery. 'Risico' was a rumored title for QoS, and is one of the last original Ian Fleming story titles not yet used as a film title. And it just sounds cool to boot.

Terminator: Save Cameron
April 2009
Because Fox doesn't know how to treat their own properties, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles was cancelled only two seasons in. I designed this poster in the interest of drumming up support to keep the show on the air. The effort was modestly successful, alas the show will not be back.

Watchmen (v2)
March 2009
Now that the movie's finally out, I went back and remade my original teaser poster design, fitting it in a bit more with the official poster campaign, and to see how much I'd improved since 2001. Talk about your 'night & day' differences.

Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun Li (v3)
February 2009
Decided to give this one last go. I tried to quietly slip this into a media outlet or two, but they must have been on their toes after the last time. Geez, wouldn't it suck if the movie turned out to be terrible after I'd invested so much in it?

Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun Li (v2)
January 2009
After my first Street Fighter poster enjoyed (suffered?) a period of infamy as a supposed 'international poster', I decided to tempt fate and do another. I based the splattered/painted style on Daigo Ikeno's character artwork for Street Fighter IV.

Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun Li
January 2009
Well, here's a change; a poster for a movie that really does exist! I was one of maybe five guys looking forward to this flick, but was disappointed in the film's almost nonexistent marketing campaign. So, using publicly available production stills, I put together an alternate one-sheet design, something that I think better represents a Street Fighter movie.

Black Lagoon
December 2008
As anime goes, this one could translate to live-action far more easily than others in the pipeline, I think. Sam Jackson, Owen Wilson, and Cate Blanchett are a must for the parts of Dutch, Benny, and Balalaika; the other two I'm a little iffy on, but thankfully I've yet to receive any fanboy backlash on this.

The Dark Tower: The Gunslinger
November 2008
I had just finished the first volume of Stephen King's 'magnum opus', and decided I needed to render something fitting of the utter coolness of the novel's opening line. The titular gunslinger is played here by Firefly/Serenity alum and proven cinema badass Nathan Fillion.

Halo

This project's had its 'stop's and 'go's for the past couple years, but I have faith it's happening...eventually. Until that day, here's a highly suspect teaser poster that conveniently divulges no cast, crew, or release date.

The second is a proposed 'character series' for the non-existant Darkstalkers movie, starring an extra cute-and-cuddly Scarlett Johannsen as catwoman Felicia and ass-kicker extraordinaire Jason Statham as werewolf Jon Talbain.

Darkstalkers
February 2008
The videogame-to-film genre has yet to see any real critical or artistic success, so sayeth the general consensus. Is Darkstalkers the franchise to bring that to an end? Starring model/actress Zita Görög (Underworld) as Morrigan Aensland.

1984
January 2008
You know they'll get around to doing another 1984 film eventually. Winston Smith here is portrayed by Paul Bettany, and the face of Big Brother belongs to Powers Boothe, 'cause you know you'll be watching your ass if that BMF was watching it too.

Jonny Quest
May 2007
Nostalgia's apparently been all the rage in Hollywood lately (not including remakes), as old cartoon properties get snatched up by Hollywood left and right. I think this represents some of my better casting choices, as I've received almost universal praise for the casting of Daniel Craig as Race Bannon.

The Restaurant at the End of the Universe

After the improbably delightful Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy movie came and went, my thoughts turned immediately to promoting the sequel, which sadly has not arisen in time for the poster's proposed 2007 release.

Fathom
July 2004
Based on the comic book series by the late great Michael Turner. This is another comic-to-film that was announced years ago and hadn't made any significant headway. James Cameron's Lightstorm Entertainment was producing at the time, so Cameron's own Dark Angel Jessica Alba (before she became overexposed) plays the watery protagonist.

Trigun
April 2004
This was 'commissioned' (non-profit, of course) as part of an elaborate April Fool's gag that sadly went on to fool virtually no one. Still makes for a good fantasy, huh? Should plans for a Trigun film ever some to fruition, Robert Rodriguez is the man to direct it; there are simply no others.

A live-action Neon Genesis Evangelion project was announced way back in 2001, and has seen....next to nothing in development at the time of this posting. So with the help of Weta Workshop's conceptual art, I've got their movie poster ready for them, assuming the movie even gets made.

After this project got put on the fast track back in 2001 (only to be shelved several times between then and 2007), I put together this simple teaser of the graphic novel's most famous image. Now that the movie's been made for real, it amazes me how little this poster represents the actual film.
