Signalnoise stickers

Here is something I’ve wanted to do for years, but had never followed through on until now. I got my order of Signalnoise stickers delivered yesterday and cannot be happier with the results. I had them printed by Sticker Robot and they really knocked the quality out of the park, and at a reasonable price.

I will be including a free sticker with all Signalnoise Store orders from now on.

Signalnoise Apparel: Awesome shirt

Awesome shirt by James White

Awesome shirt by James White

Here is a project I have been wanting to kick off for quite a while, the pals on my Twitter got a sneak peek yesterday. This is the first t-shirt design for the Signalnoise Apparel line I will be launching in the coming few weeks. The ‘Awesome’ design was originally intended for a shirt before I created the poster of the same name. I will be trying for the full gamut, both men’s and women’s sizes.

The manifesto behind my t-shirt line is simple: to create shirts the way I remember them in the 70s and 80s.

Other then the recent posters I have launched, I’ve been tight-lipped about my other Signalnoise projects on the go as I worked things through and got the final designs together. Signalnoise Apparel will be opening in the near future, so stay tuned as I work out all of the details before the big launch.

ComArts Projects: Polly Diamond cover

Polly Diamond by James White

I was asked by Computer Arts Projects to participate in their monthly Designer Challenge, where they supplied me and two other designers with an image of a lady and we were to design a CD cover for the make-believe electro artist Polly Diamond. We had a week to create the final image before submitting. Here is a side-by-side comparison of the image I received and the final version.

Polly Diamond

I wanted to do something old-school with a funny, over-the-top angle. If you are Canadian you might spot the inspiration behind this piece as being that of K-Tel, a record company stationed in Winnipeg, Manitoba during the 60s and 70s. They had crazy covers for their compilations and was something I wanted to mimic in my design. Here are a couple of examples:

K-Tel covers

The version appearing in the magazine doesn’t have the Leather Rebel sticker on it. The idea hit me a week after I sent the final version off, gotta love it when that happens :) This also uses the same bacground effect used on my recent Wordburglar poster.

My design appears in the latest installment of Computer Arts Projects, the Print Design issue, which is currently on newsstands in Europe.
