Another installment of “Completely Custom,” this time featuring the latest from Flatbush Zombies, “Vacation in Hell.” We were lucky to have the opportunity to work on the newest Flatbush Zombies release , “Vacation in Hell, ” and let us be the first to tell you, this one is INCREDIBLE. The “don’t look directly at it,” kind of incredible, because you may go blind from coolness. First we started with a 6 panel digipak. Sounds simple doesn’t it? Nay, not simple at all! This one was printed with a matte finish PLUS a spot glitter UV. We were able to mix actual, real life, […]

Hard to tell from photos, this really should be seen in person. The […]

Because of that success, the local Red Bull promotions team reached out to us to not only sponsor, but to design the poster and social media art for their Red Bull Crashed Ice Afterparty on January 20th, 2018. Happily, we obliged at the opportunity! We wanted to come up with a pretty detailed theme or design style to make it unique and stand out not only to make something super cool for Red Bull, but also […]

Thank you to everyone for a wonderful year. Scroll down for just the smallest, most tiniest selection of projects we had the utmost pleasure to work on. See you in 2018!
