Ye Olde Republic Podcast for Star Wars MMO

The guys at DWP have started a Star Wars The Old Republic podcast called YE OLDE REPUBLIC and they contacted me to provided the logo, podcast graphic, and other collateral. The basic idea is an avatar…I like the idea of the multi-arm idea of MMOs. Simply put people choose to become one of many classes in game, so the multi arm avatar symbolizes this with the main character holding different weapons to symbolize the different classes (Jedi, Sith, Trooper, Bounty Hunter, Smuggler, etc)

I created a knock out look for easier printing for swag and other stuff. Also I used a blue and red background on the podcast logo to symbolize the Sith and the Republic (don’t want to play favorites 😛 )

Core Elements Podcast & Poster

The ever busy Dead Workers Party has another podcast underway. It is called “Core Elements” and will focus on gaming as a whole ( read not only video games).

Wes Wilson over there asked for a poster to be drawn up with a turn of the century tinkering feel. I got to do this in the Art Nouveau style, which was great fun to investigate. Art Nouveau has alot to offer though it seems to be passed up buy the more familiar Art Deco and propaganda style posters of the early century. Also for part of this was a logo .

Have a gander at the sketch, the finished poster (which will be available in print soon), the logo, and a close up for vanity sake 🙂

The Daily Gamer take 2

After the first pass was done it looked a bit too… “newsish”. The new gaming podcast will have a little news but will be mostly point of views and reviews on games.

Here is pass 2 A-C with a radically different look from pass 1. Each version is a tad different.
