MSN Buddies

I was commissioned by MSN to dress-up some Buddies. Namely: a fireman, a “goyesca” -see below- and, you know, a Lenin one. Why would MSN want a Lenin Buddy I chose not to ask. These are the mostly creepy results.

30% photomanip, 70% digital painting

 

Goyesque = Goya paintings’ ladies. Spanish 2 the core. 100% Photoshop.

 

Plain blasphemous. What can I say? I needed the money.

The first two were done in PS and the last one in Illustrator since they needed a hi-res version for a print ad. Fun stuff to do, even tough I still have nightmares with Lenin’s ghost returning from the grave to make me pay for what i’ve done to his dignity.

The Fuck Club

The concept behind The Fuck Club revolved around the idea of casual sex via an asertive and no-nonsense approach to the classical one-night stand hunting techniques. Let’s say you are in the horny mood tonight, and consequently, you decide to wear your Fuck Club badge. The point is, basically, that if you notice someone in the bar (disco, house party, you name it) wearing the signal (some form of Fuck Club merchandise, i.e. another badge) and you find this person attractive, you can go and talk about sex in clear terms, as any Fuck Club endorser accepts certain rules like this “ask freely” prerogative.

The badges read “Miembro del Club del Sexo” (“Member of The Fuck Club” in Spanish).

I did this as an humorous attempt to satirize and expose the whole “scoring” thing, which frequently involves loads of hypocrisy and turns out as a ridiculous and unneccesary ritual. I wrote a manifesto and printed some badges that I handed to guests at my 25th birthday. I dare to say it was a sound success.

Bankinter icon suite

Commissioned by Bankinter, and currently in use in a promotional CD handed to customers in Bankinter’s branch offices. These icons rocked so much at Bankinter that the client asked them to be implemented in their mobile service website (here) and many interactive demos.
