When I first saw the creation, I was like "Whoa, that can't be
fake. That's REAL!". Amazing talent.

I've seen that guys work before online. I don't know why, but
I'd pay to see that at a museum.
Stunning for sure.

The definition of practical art. I'd love to get something like
this for myself.

Gah, you beat me too it.
They are beautiful
I did a project years ago with of all things, an old telephone
booth. It had some minor flaws and heavy damage. I asked the
restorer how to fix it. His advice... Don't fix. Work WITH those
issues and like these tables, the piece turned a flaw into
something unique.

I wish I did. It was so long ago, back in the day when I didn't
even think about taking pics.

As it gets closer and closer to Comic Con, I've been wondering
why Campbell has been so quiet. He usually releases teases of
what's in store by this time and so far....nothing. I don't get
updates anymore. Not sure if he even post to DeviantArt anymore.
So, I had to check over on his Facebook. Still no "new" stuff
that's coming. But I did check out his photo gallery and saw
these 3 images from Game of Thrones and Mad Men. You may have
already been aware of them. But to me, they are new. Enjoy. I
would love to see Campbell put together a Hardcover book of
nothing but his Celeb Caricatures that he has done over the
years.

[glow=yellow,2,300]What if Rockwell illustrated Resident Evil,
Captain America, Optimus Prime?[/glow]

[quote]Canadian freelance illustrator and multimedia designer
Marco D'Alfonso imagines what Norman Rockwell's take would have
been on modern heroes in this trio of amazing faux Saturday
Evening Post covers.
My favorite among the bunch has to be his take on Resident Evil
3 and the gear all video game characters seem to haul around.
The print, below, will be part of the 8_bit & Beyond 2 art show
opening Aug. 8 at Bottleneck Gallery in Brooklyn. (Inspired by
Rockwell's "Liberty Girl.")[/quote]

[quote]Then there's this amazing Captain America, Rockwell
crossover inspired by "The Doughboy and his admirers."[/quote]

[quote]And finally there's D'Alfonso's tribute to Rockwell's
"The Tattooist", which features an artist decking out Optimus
Prime's shoulder with flames.[/quote]

Awesome find Mac! I love it. I like 'What ifs' scenarios like
these. He can definitely hold his own against other high caliber
artist out there.

[center]Man randomly starts drawing everyone on the train

Simply.....awesome. I rather get a random caricature anywhere
but an amusement park. Think about it, you go to an amusement
park and get one, there is no story behind. You get one at some
random location, completely unaware and you have a story to tell
for the rest of your life. Another thing that I found very
fascinating is that this artist, without really saying one word
is bonding complete strangers through art. Everyone wants to see
what the other persons canvas looks like. One last thing, this
is really a great way to make quick cash. He doesn't ask for
money. He's just drawing for the love of it and gives the art
away. But once the recipient sees it, they are compelled to tip,
even if they had no intention of doing so. I really wish the guy
that video taped this would have posted info about the artist.
At least give us his name so that we can search out his stuff
online.
