Commission.

Another commission made few weeks ago.
Years icons to be used in Star TV show.
50s rockabilly, 60s psychedelic, 70s punk, 80s new wave/synth, 90s hip hop, 00s internet era.
I had enough time to draw these pictures, so I'm a bit proud with the result.



There are my favorite in large size.
80s - new wave, synth, vector gfx videogames, miami vice, laser, vhs, shining metal, glitter, neon.


And 00s - internet, ipod, mp3, digital entertainment, download, messengers, social networking, cutting edge videogames.

All that stuff is courtesy of Star TV live music channel and blah-blah-blah.

! R B T R K !

So...
Last 2 days I've been working on this thing that costs me 10 hours approx. This vector drawing is based on my old (november or december 2012) drawing from the sketchbook which can be found HERE (4th one).
Basic requirement was to avoid black color and to keep the lines simple. Actually I really proud with result achieved and with clean feeling here.Color palette of this picture is also something new for me, because of fresh desaturated colors.
Denki Groove is written with japanese hieroglyphs here and yes, It's the name of electronic music band from Japan. 
You're Gone free font developed by Typodermic Fonts was used in my work.
RBTRK (robot rock) is just occasional title I decided to take and don't ask me about Daft Punk ok? :)

Actual picture (click to enlarge ):

VHS

Here is another piece work for my guys from Star TV.
TV broadcast logo. 
The idea was to get the feeling of 80's vhs/betacam picture style with it's glitches and interlacing.
It was made in vectors and then processed with raster software.
Final image processed with Adobe Photoshop, superheavily processed :


Outline preview and superclean Illustrator mode:




Since this is kinda work for food, all rights belongs to Star TV

Octopus.minimal

Just another minimalistic exercise I made few weeks ago.
I tried to draw an octopus as a symbol, but Natalka said it looks like a bearded man :)

GUN (Warpunk 2013)

This one is based on my old sketch from 2011 sketchbook and was drawn pretty fast (4 hours approx). The guy and his gun were made in Flash, but Adobe Illustrator was used for camo background and chaotic linear madness. I'm going to use this way of drawing vectors in my further works, because CS 5 rocks for this purposes and flexible *fxg file format  works in really amazing way ( thumbs up for this good feature in Flash CS5 ).
It looks very untidy when it comes to details, but super precision outlines quality is actually not a goal I wanted to achieve here.

Attention! The background magazine is not exists in real life!
I just like to play around with  pop magazine cover design :)

UA Top 10

Ілюстрація для музичного хіт параду на телеканалі Star TV.
Тема : хімічно-музична лабораторія, тому поруч зі звичними пробірками, колбами та мензурками тут розташовані синтезатори ( навіть є спеціальний гібрид синтезатора з осцилографом ), драм машини, колонки та плеєри.
Арт дирекція:  Олександр Ткаленко 


Цікавий факт - спочатку це був UA Top 30, котрий згодом перетворився на Топ 10. 
Ось ескізи логотипу:


Жовта плашка UA Top 10 та ілюстрація є власністю Star TV

Hey! Wait a minute

Vintage comics palette and dirty texture made this work finished so it's not another overpainted sketch.
Actually 2 robots are trying to get into the groove here :)

Blah Blah Room

Background for Star TV show called "Blah Blah Room"
A pure vector madness. Looks like a trash salad. But it always works for music channels :)))

MILK

I'm seriously believe that Flash is pretty nice vector software.
This monster was drawn in Flash CS4 yesterday. That's why the colors are so bright , 
simple and so default here ( I was too lazy to prepare swatches for this work).
Words on nimbus are taken from Big Tony's "Bubble Up''.



Sketch? Ah, It was a crappy one:

Sketch

One of my strangest sketches.
It was drawn when I was waiting for Tricky's autograph after his performance in November 2012.
Gel ink pen.
