I'm almost willing to bet that both Faile and Arizona's art department used stock imagery, or were at least inspired by it.

 

I see tons of those "Beware of Dog" signs with the angry Doberman on them in the ghetto. Which is funny, because Dobermans are really expensive dogs.

I will go with bad for 200, CILONE.

 

Although after seeing GREY's design work for Comedy Central and Altoids, I'm not sure it's really an issue anymore.

 

Pretty much everything I cared about growing up has been co-opted by the mass media and popular culture. Track bikes, punk rock, graffiti, messenger bags...it's a long list, and it keeps getting longer the older I get.

 

I wish I didn't have any integrity, so I could have sold out and cashed in when the time was right. Now, I'm just old, broke, and bitter.

 

But, hey....I stayed true to the game, I guess.

yeah, Arizona tea is classic. They can use and abuse graffiti styles all they want as long as they hire a real graffiti writer to do the designs. That's generally how I feel about graffiti/corporate collaborations. The least the corporate heads could do is find real writers to line their pockets and not some fake knock off type computer generated font-ass graffiti wanna bee look alikes from some boojie marketing firm.

where have i been

 

grey does work for comedy central and altoids?

 

Altoids for sure, and CC I'm 95% sure about. I know REAS did the art direction for "Crank Yankers", and I'm certain he had help from other people.

 

You seem surprised by that, but I wasn't when I heard about it.
