007 Gold Bond - "Fire Butt"

04_goldbond_firebutt

A spec ad I created for Gold Bond Medicated Powder. This is No. 1 out of 3. titled "Fire Butt" for obvious reasons.

I used layered high res photos as well as myself as the model. Hand painted, scanned, and further developed in Photoshop.

Look out for the other two!

003 Self Defense

0428_braden_smith_fin

I used pen and ink to illustrate this and then waited a few moments to get the right texture before I snapped  a shot with my Canon Rebel. Several months ago, I became a member of JPGMag.com, an online community of photographers. A great place for exposure and an opportunity to get published. I posted this along with a few others and have enjoyed the feedback. I used this "Self Defense" mechanism concept and transferred it over to a WWF ad, which I will post on a later date. 

Today, is the most holy of Sundays. All Saints Day!!! ... and I'm not even Catholic. I hope the Saints make my birth state proud.
