This cover was inspired by some shitty movie poster about killer crocs. I can't remember what the name of it was ( and I'm sure it'll be about 2 seconds before you guys are on it and start busting my balls about it, so thanks for nothing in advance, haha.) But I digress, anyway I thought the croc mouth as a graphic would go nicely with my design sense. The movie poster in question just had a 3D illustration of the croc in the same position.

This was done by masking off the lettering (which bleed a lot and fixed in Photoshop) and liquid masking fluid on the croc which worked well. Then hitting it with a huge brush and liquid acrylic. Finished up with gouache.

Basically, this took about a day from concept to final.

Love this image, Dave. There's something about those sickly putrid greens that makes you think of the stink of a mangrove swamp and I always enjoy your canny use of seemingly retro fonts but you just cheekily connected that l to the Punisher's shirt logo which works a treat.

I could look at this all day. Will Marvel get their arses into gear and make this a poster? We can but hope, eh?

Man, there's a 70s vibe going on with that cover that I love.

I'd buy any movie no matter what it was about had it a cover like this.

Oh god... Rogue. No, it came. And went just as fast.

Your punisher dude looks like he's on a flat perspective layer. Was this a stylistic choice?

I love your colours.
