“There's a little of every artist in their work.”....
I had already planned to create a piece to celebrate the incredible creativity, talent and story telling that is Dennis Villeneuve's Blade Runner 2049, and the opportunity arose for in an alternative poster submission for a PosterSpy brief.
Taking the inspiration from the character Doc Badger's quote 'Real wood', 'You're rich my friend' and blending elements of technology, science, structure, nature and destruction, the initial piece blends wood, fire (literal and actual ie scorched wood), chrome paint and hand etching (Phyre Etching).
The piece was scanned in at extremely high resolution to capture the infinite detail, then coloured treated/enhanced with scanned hand painted textures to create the finished poster.
