Two of my favorite artists and they are both Game of Thrones designs to boot!!

07/21/14 Top Pick; Hound’s Red Ale

“You lived your life for the king. You gonna die for some chickens?”

“Someone is.” What a bad ass quote for a bad ass Hound!

Composition – Awesome bilateral symmetry. The type fits in nicely with the rest of the composition.

Lines and Forms – Nice clean descriptive strokes. I can’t find a single area in this design that isn’t interesting!

Color – Wonderful gradations of grays. Interesting pops of red and yellow are well-balanced throughout the design.

Thank You Jimiyo

“Perhaps you should speak to me more softly then. Monsters are dangerous and just now kings are dying like flies. ”

Composition – Wonderful grounded triangle composition with Tyrion at the apex. This creates the visual illusion of transforming from Dwarf to Monster.

Typography – Awesome comic book typographic treatment. Fun re-imagining of Incredible Hulk #1!

Good and evil. Light and dark. Positive and negative. Day and night. Any of these dichotomies could describe the relationship between adoptive brothers Thor and Loki. I present this conflict today in the form of two designs.

It’s not hard to imagine Loki embracing his power and status among the ancient civilizations is it? With that charm, wit, and cunning one couldn’t help but feel the presence of a god.

07/01/14 Top Pick; Loki-Tut

Composition – Bold, well-balanced render of this God of Mischief.

Texture – I love the repeated horizontal lines in this design creating dynamic patterns. The small intricate lines create a variety of textures throughout the design. I especially enjoy the circular lines in the horns.

Thank You Jimiyo

Buy This Shirt! Loki-Tut

The metaphorical “light in the darkness” comes through here quite literally with the God of Thunder, Thor! While he may not be able to match Loki’s brains, he makes up for it with his formidable brawn. He also has a great butt, just ask Natalie Portman. 😛

07/01/14 Top Pick; God of Thunder Returns

Composition – Beautiful and dynamic angle. The figure is also in a great action pose.

Color – Wonderful use of positive and negative space. I really enjoy the teal thin outline around the negative space figure. The bright stark thunder bolt creates a wonderful contrast against the dark scene.

Thank You Six Eyed Monster
