Airbrushing is now a specialised field

Shows I have been out of touch with the industry... that's what happens when you sit in the digital / interactive TV industry for too long.

You learn something new everyday...

Good spelling has also become an extremely specialised section of the industry. In fact, so specialised that there are no known practitioners of the black art.

Except for you...

A bit of new, stress-free school with a good drop of Sepo influence, dash of keyboard stutter and a dollop of laziness produces some interesting effects...

Still, when it comes to spending lots of $$$$ on printing I'd rather have the fat guy in a suit sign the finished artwork off.

Mate, I'm not in the industry -I'm hopeless with graphics, I'm only good at spelling

I have a theory that the best graphics blokes are those who doodled away through class and never paid attention - that's why they can't spell.

Yep, and they can't spell, either.

I have a client that can do them for you. If you are interested Let me know how big you want them and how many and I can get you a quote.
