Copywriters vs. Art Directors

 

 The eternal dispute between Copywriters and Art Directors.

Created by Caio Pena (AD), Henrique Parada (AD) and Letícia Hanower (CW), Copywriter vs. Art Director is a series of illustrations that depict the eternal dispute and differences between the two professions. While not everyone (especially Copywriters and Art Directors) might agree with each rendering, most are quite accurate, and all are entertaining.

The Autum Epitaph Cruiser

I'm not much of a bike rider, but this is amazing!

Limited to a production of only 12, the Epitaph Cruiser has fitted special wheels that house four tires. 

With a steel frame finished with black powder coat, a beautifully handcrafted pure leather seat, aged leather handles and frame insert, custom-made alloy rims and each seat has a laser imprinted Roman numerals on it to identify the serial number of the particular bike, this has to be one of most luxurious bicycles ever made.

It will set you back US$2950.

How would products of great brands of alcoholic spirits look like, if they were packed in beverage cartons instead of their prominent bottles? 

Times are changing, what remains of the brand?

Great work by Old Red Jalopy who have made a series of old school comic book covers in support of the first annual Comedy Awards on Comedy Central. 

Eddie Murphy, Tina Fey, Bill Murray Steve Martin and Will Ferrell all received the comic book treatment.

How great would it be to see the full comic book series produced? I would buy them.
