10 Brand Logos Get a Zombie Apocalypse Makeover

Wednesday 10.31.2012 , Posted by

In the wake of a zombie apocalypse, things might get a whole lot more dead around here.

Unfortunately I never reached the skill level of these talented Redditors. If you are a photoshop expert or just enjoy the magical humor that photoshoppers bring, allow me to introduce you to an amazing sub-reddit: r/photoshopbattles. [Read more...]

Just in Time for the Olympics: Sports/Sculpture Collage

Monday 07.23.2012 , Posted by

Like a mashup between classic statues of Greek Olympians and their modern day counterparts, the collages of Jen Ullrich are seriously clever and plenty ridiculous too. Ullrich takes photographs of classic statues and pastes elements of them over magazine clippings of athletes in action – in doing so, he matches up their figures with a deft mastery almost equal to that of his subjects.
