    My Team Logo




    Pandora is kind of a symbol for curiosity and she keeps the secrets in the Pandora box, which makes me choose Poker as a sport. Keeping your cards a secret  and other players are curious about your hand, just like Pandora. Plus, Pandora is known as a gorgeous woman created by Gods, a beautiful girl (might be dressed up like a dealer or Joker) is also in the logo. The second concept is actually a girl open the box like Pandora and inside the box are poker chips and playing cards.

    Concept evaluation.

    http://www.stuart-mclachlan.com/folio.html
    Stuart McLachlan

    This is one my my most favourite design/concept. Stuart wanted to create a classic scene from the King Arthur tales of the "Lady of the Lake" story in an unique new style for both the area of fashion and advertising. With that idea, he hand cut the paper to create all of the illustration, layer by layer to produce such stunning, amazing finished art. He really went into the concept, the lady model in the middle of the paper layers looked like she's surrounded in a lively marine world, the bottom of a magic lake. 

    He collaborated with Photographer Simon Cardwell to setup the scene in the studio, sticking up all huge size of paper illustrations. And yes, we can still see the sophisticated technique in creating paper illustration from the finished digital art. Even though the final art is digital, it is unique for the way he built the scene not from the computer but his dexterity. It was totally nicely done!
