    Hip-Hop Zombie Gangsta Digital Painting
    Digital painting of a zombie I was commissioned to create for the author Danny King as an avatar and branding identity for his sports blog. I really enjoy making things look creepy and funny at the same time - I tried to pump a lot of personality into the character. I seem to really like drawing people and zombies smoking cigars - not sure why that is. This zombie painting was created in Manga Studio 5, with color adjustments and effects handled in Adobe Photoshop..

    Moonshine Zombie Whiskey label illustration
    Redneck zombie Illustration I created for a bottle label for a new brand of spirits called Moonshine Zombie...Each variety will have a different zombie character portrayed, with a personality matching the type of spirit. I tried to pick bright, vibrant colors that would contrast nicely with the carmel color of the whiskey. I've been drawing zombies for a while now, but this is the first zombie squirrel I've ever attempted..Graphic design by Paul Jones.

    Chess Medieval Themed Vaping eJuice Labels
    I was hired to illustrate and design this new line of eJuice vaping flavors for Valgous. The client approached me with the idea of having each flavor represented by six different chess pieces. I thought it would be cool to illustrate the labels as if the characters were from a dark, fantasy kingdom...In addition, I also designed the logo for the series, Valgous: Slayer, and even designed the point-of-purchase display. The series will be distributed and sold to vaping outlets around the country...We are also planning a line of t-shirts featuring the characters to help promote the new line.

    Skull T-Shirt Design for MMA Apparel Brand
    I was hired to illustrate this T-Shirt design for one of my favorite clients, Darkhorse Fightwear, for their new line of MMA apparel. The design was set up for silk-screen using three colors, and illustrated in Manga Studio and Adobe Photoshop. The design was inspired by a previous illustration I created a few years ago - it was fun to revisit it and test out some new skills while illustrating it. The design features a skull in the center with wings and chains surrounding.

    Medusa T-Shirt
    The latest design I created for Fit-Out Apparel. The client wanted a limited color illustration of Medusa for a T-Shirt. She knew that she wanted her face to be covered with tattoos, but wasn't sure what the tattoos should be. I came up with the idea of creating tattoos inspired by patterns found on Greek pottery. We were very happy with how this turned out.

    Undead Gunslinger
    Detailed digital painting I created of a zombie cowboy for Invision Artworks. This dude will most likely be uses on dirtbikes and quads. I'm really excited to have my artwork added to their already impressive lineup of cool graphics. This was created mainly in Manga Studio, but I had some help from Photoshop as well. The guns were a particularly challenging, but I'm happy with how they turned out...To see more of my work, or hire me for freelance projects, please visit my website: www.flylanddesigns.com

    Custom T-Shirt Illustration I created for 80s Tees.com, featuring an unlikely team-up of Cobra (GI Joe) and the Decepticons (Transformers). It was a really fun challenge to illustrated so many characters (Cobra Commander, Baroness, Storm Shadow, Destro, Starscream, Megatron, and Trypticon) while only using a handful of silk screen colors (I believe this was four colors). We chose a dark color scheme highlighted with oranges and blues. Love how this turned out. Design is officially licensed from Hasbro...You can buy a shirt directly from 80s Tees here: http://www.80stees.com/products/decepticon-cobra-shirt

    Vaping E-Juice Custom Labels With Mafia Theme
    Package design illustrations I created for a new line of vaping e-juice flavors by Vaping Sisters. The labels were all mafia themed. Watching Scarface 15 times has finally paid off! I was recquired to conceptualize and illustrate 10 different labels, based on different mafia archetypes. Can't wait to start the next series!

    Zombie Vaping eJuice
    Zombie label illustrations I created for Vaping Sisters' new line of eJuice flavors. The client gave me the names of the eight flavors, and I had to design and illustrate a different character for each. The labels themselves are only about 2.5 inches tall, so I had to design the characters with a lot of contrast and bright colors so they could be legible at such a small size. The flavors are sold online and in their shop. To see more of my work, or hire me for freelance projects, please visit my website: www.flylanddesigns.com

    Zombie apocalypse poster I illustrated for the new Vodka brand, Virus Vodka to celebrate their release. The idea was to show a horde of zombies passing by the people drinking the other brands of vodka, and eating only the girl drinking Virus Vodka - because it just tastes better! I provided the client with signed prints, and animated gifs showing the process of the illustration as material to help them promote the brand and gain interest on social media...Please drink responsibly during a zombie apocalypse.

    Album cover I illustrated for a new promotional album for Listenable Records. My client came up with the idea of having a moshpit of metal zombies rocking out. I thought it would be funny to put a frightened goth chick crowd-surfing to her doom. The illustration was created at a huge size so that it could also be displayed as a four foot banner at concerts.
