Sherlock Holmes Titles & Credits – Danny Yount

We re-watched Sherlock Holmes and I forgot how amazing the titles and end credits were. The Art of The Title Sequence has an interview with Danny Yount, creative director, that goes into some detail about the process (below) of arriving at the final style (above) and the some of the inspiration behind it. Worth checking out on youtube. Beware of the sequence with some random rock song dubbed over it instead of the original Hans Zimmer composition.

James Gulliver Hancock

I really like these fun portraits of men on the subway by James Gulliver Hancock.

All Hail Megatron – Trevor Hutchison

I love these covers by Trevor Hutchison for All Hail Megatron. Great re-imagining of propaganda-ish posters. And who better to be the dictator of choice than Megratron himself?

See more of Trevor at his portfolio and his blog.

Follow the Leader – Sam Caldwell

Loving this Follow the Leader illustration by Sam Caldwell. You already know how much we love Sam’s work, so it was an honor to have him participate in FTL!

Natsko Seki

I was reminded of Natsko Seki’s beautiful “Four Seasons” illustrations by Man Make Home. My favorite is the Summer illustration, but I couldn’t find a high-res version of it online, so I settled for Spring, instead. But they are all gorgeous, as is the rest of Natsko’s work.

Louise Wright

Sweet illustrations by Louise Wright.

NYPL – Pictures of Science: 700 Years of Scientific and Medical Illustration

I’ve posted image links from the NYPL before. The digital collection is always a great source of graphic inspiration. Like these Chemistry Equipment Catalogs. See more in the Pictures of Science: 700 Years of Scientific and Medical Illustration.

Sam Caldwell

Love the illustration style of Sam Caldwell. There is something very quiet and unassuming about his work.

Follow the Leader – Louise Norman

Louise Norman submitted this drawing to our Follow the Leader project – I love the bright colors of all of the different vegetables…We’d love to get some more drawings – please check out the project if you are interested!

Riders and Villains

Silence Television is the work of Gianmarco Magnani and it is good. There are more moto-inspired prints in his shop for your browsing. I would love to see one of these prints the size of a billboard.
