John Nack on Adobe : Friday Illustrations: Vader, fractals, & more

December 19, 2008

I love, love, love this Vader “Self Maintenance” drawing.
Logopond features a terrific logo for Ed’s Electric. The one for ETA ain’t bad, either, though I’m not sure I’d have read the letters correctly without some guidance.
PSDTUTS has a great tutorial on how to simulate fractals in Photoshop.
Miquel Barcelo used more than 100 tons of paint on the 16,000-square-foot elliptical dome for the UN’s Geneva offices. [Via]
These are, without question, the most deeply messed up soda ads I’ve ever seen.

Vader could have used that Force spray and buffer in Return of the Jedi. Through the course of that movie, his armor goes from shiny to dull as, I guess, his evilness wanes.

Hi, John! Loved the Vader drawing too, but when I looked at that Ed’s Electric logo I couldn’t help remembering the logo from the Brazilian Electricity Regulatory Agency (ANEEL, in the Portuguese translation). Coincidence?
