Information Leak

Installation art ‘INFORMATIONLEAK’ by Richard Evans. Those are laser-cut wooden letters.
"What I tried to do was visually represent the way information is so easily leaked into today’s society, through the Internet and television. Pretty much anything you can imagine, you can get your hands on. With such an abundance of information, I feel as though it over-flows into our lives and the typography is purposefully hard to read to reflect this."

Sigs Jones Character Model Images

There is a cool action short animation called Sigg Jones produced by 3 students in few years ago, and it won many awards. The short inspirited me a lot. I like the character the motion with lots of anime elements there. Here are some character model images by Asterokid.


The treatment of bevel sharpness is wonderful!




These character models are amzing, really like how are they been stylized. You can see more Sigg Jones images at Flickr and sneakerfreaker.com.
