Andrew Meltzer Design

Went back and forth on a few ideas with Cop/Out before settling on this, and I'm glad we went with it because it was so much fun to make! Also a fun exercise in cross hatching. Pardon the strange cropping/lower resolution on the second one - they handled the text themselves so that's the only final I have.

My favorite weird detail in this: ran out of circus performer silhouettes so instead I slipped in that shot of the guy in a dog suit from The Shining. You know the one I'm talking about...

Another quick one! Wanted a noir vibe so the base imagery was taken from The Third Man (1949), run through filters, and mixed with grime and broken glass. I also love the way support logos degrade from Radiation Blackbody to Fashion Week, which I sadly can't take credit for - just their most recent logos in slot order.

Full size poster for print and IG sliders for Collective Effort Fest. Imagery is from dozens of medieval etchings I cleaned up, broke down, rearranged, and vectored. And band logos. So many band logos.

Love a good challenge so I decided to take on three cartoon map jobs in one month in addition to the fest promo I needed to do for another gig.

Headless man image sourced from baroque printmaking pioneer Jacques Callot's Saint Livier (1624), with the skull and flourishes added after. If you're into metal you've probably seen his work and don't know it, so go check him out.

Quick banger mixing medical illustrations, blue prints, and some sacred geometry because shapes rule. Or something. I dunno, I spent more time trying to shop painfully lo-res screamo logos than I did actually making the art on this one.

This art preceded the flyer, in case you were wondering how I feel about cops...

Got to make two versions of this because some people were worried that a disembodied butt might be distracting... Goal for this was to make something that looked pretty at first glance, but more like a serial killer's trophy on closer inspection.

Booked a semi-secret show with Vic from The Slackers at a speakeasy weed space named after the JFK assassination, so of course I had to do a conspiracy board full of in-jokes and It’s Always Sunny References…

Another attempt at making a joyful, less brooding metal flyer. Kids and horse were sourced from an old toy catalogue, while the scenery was cobbled together from a mix of castles, flames, and post-war rubble.

One of the best parts of my job is when my co-worker’s girlfriend stops by with their dog Mitch. He’s such a smart, cuddly, little gentleman… So obviously I had to slap together a tape full of Mayhem/dog puns, break into his other job at 3am, and leave it in the stack of cassettes he has to sort tomorrow.

Keep feeling like I'm forgetting something big I need to post here and, oh yeah, this thing! Had the pressure pleasure of doing the flyer for Graf Orlock's last east coast show ever! Started by drawing over a classic Porky Pig and then tweaked things till I found the sweet spot between him and Count Orlock from Nosferatu.

Infant Island is a Godzilla reference, but this was right around when the latest movie came out and Godzilla imagery was everywhere, so I tried to make a Godzilla themed poster showing as little of Godzilla as possible.

Locked In A Vacancy - ...Before The Dawn EP art, single, and EP release merch drop

Anyway, I’m super professional and you should give me money.

More fun with flourishes!
