Recreating The Predator Logo

I will give someone $10 if they can guess which one is mine but I'm not that rich. My version is the top one and the original is the bottom. Twins? I think so.

Sketch Of A Ninja Turtle

It took me such a long time to figure out what I wanted to sketch out for a vector illustration. I went from street fighters, power rangers to tomb raider. Finally I thought about shows I used to watch when I was a kid. Ninja turtles came up and here it is!

Megalodon -360 Shots

Here are 9 photographs of the Megalodon tooth. A series of photos showing a 360 view of the tooth. Bold colours, visible detail. These are shots of the tooth on it's own. A display case is in the process of being made. More shots will follow for a complete museum exhibit feel.

Megalodon - Poster Template

Here is a template for a series of posters I will develop for the ROM. The ROM staff is very excited for the project and looks forward to seeing fresh creativity in an old environment. All jokes aside, I have developed 2 strong colour palettes for warm and cool colours. My type choice is very classic, simple and appropriate for a museum. I am planning to use 2 fonts for my posters to add contrast and visual interest. Museums can sometimes be seen as boring but I'm planning to change that.

Megalodon - Recreating The Tooth

Megalodon Shark 
The Megalodon is an extinct huge shark that lived 18 - 1.5 million years ago in shallow seas. The full grown shark would be about 70 ft in length and is said to be the largest of the sharks. 

Below is a photograph of the massive shark. The second photo I used as a reference to the Megalodon Tooth for my sculpture. 



The Process
Here are the process stages for the recreation of the Megalodon tooth.
