A hair salon hired me in to photograph some new styles with a new Mad Max theme and I had them 3 of them pose for me here.
Part of a hair style shoot from earlier in the year.
There are just a few iconic cars in the film industry but ranking top amongst them (IMHO) has got to be the Interceptor, based on the Australian V8 Ford Falcon XB CoupĂ© muscle car and much modified to be used in the first two Mad Max films, with its black on black paintjob, distinctive side pipes and of course the blower! The Supercharger! The caption above the picture is of course what Jim Goose says to the mechanic when Max is first introduced to the car. If you’re a petrol head, like me, then you will probably recognise this drawing instantly. Hopefully you’ll like it enough to actually buy a T shirt with it on. This drawing was done on 160g paper in varying soft graphite pencils with the text added post scanning via Photoshop. This design was taken from a photo I’d had of a friend’s car who has spent a lot of time and money making a very accurate replica version of Max’s Interceptor. Hope you like it Adrian! PS now available in white text for black T shirts
Same T shirt design as the original one I did on white background, but it looks better on a black shirt in my opinion. / In case you hadn’t guessed this is the Super-charger as seen on the much modified Australian Ford Falcon XB muscle car from the Mad Max films. Haven’t seen it? Well you’re missing out on a real treat. Go and rent it! The caption is the line from Jim Goose, Max’s best mate in the film.
After seeing a few of those crazy dragster drawings of big V8’s burning rubber etc I thought I’d have a go at doing something like that based on my all time favourite film car the V8 Interceptor, the much modified Ford Falcon XB from the film Mad Max. Anyway after drawing it I scanned it into the PC and set about fooling around with Photoshop colourising it and generally just practising and getting used to what photoshop has got. So I guess you could say this is my first bit of proper digital colourising…. well I think it’s OK.
I didn’t create this by the way, I got it off the DVD and just erased out all the background in order for it to be tidy enough to put on a T shirt. Still, took a good few hours to get the edges crisp. Good practice for me on Photoshop anyway.
I built this replica of “Big Bopper” from the movie Mad Max to raise funds during a Charity Auction in conjunction with the 25th Anniversary of the Movie.
Obviously not to be confused with David Hasselhoff! I was fooling around with photoshop this afternoon and thought I’d have a play with another design that didn’t require me using a pencil. Hopefully this doesn’t need that much explaining. It’ll be easier just to say go and rent a 30 year old film called Mad Max and prepare to be blown away. Hope ya like it.
Max’s Bad-Ass Interceptor from the action flick Mad Max…for some reason, these sell like hot cakes in Australia…LOL!
I’ve taken the design a bit further and had some fun with it, Max’s Speed Shop, Sydney, Australia, Est. 1979…remember, he’s on your side!
the Last V-8 from Mad Max
this is a shot i took at melbourne uni car park, this car park funnly enough was also the main hideout or garage whatever it was in Mad Max, so i hope you enjoy the photo and that bit of trivia….
Having an overwhelming interest in customised transport, I created this piece as a self-caricature (and homage to Mad Max Thunderdome) during the recent upsurge in petrol prices- when it reaches $3 per litre, this is what I’ll look like! I drew the original piece with Indian ink and a brush, and then scanned it into Photoshop where I layered paint and textures over the original linework.
Another one for the MAD MAX fans, Mmmm, Mmm! Dinki Di dog food. The meal of choice when cruising the outback wastelands hunting for your next tank of juice. Hey, if it was good enough for Max, it’s good enough for you! You wanna get outta here? You talk to me.
need I say more?
If you haven’t seen Mad Max 2 then this will be a total mystery to you, and you’ll probabaly think it’s Jason from Hallowe’en or something, but it’s not. Go and rent out Mad Max 2 and prepare to be blown away by the film that set the standards for all post apocolyptal type films that followed. This is the head baddie guy: Humungus, the Lord Humungus, warrior of the wasteland… the Ayatollah of Rock ‘n’ Roller!. I thought about adding the caption “Just walk away” or “You defied me! You puppy!” but figured the picture spoke enough for itself. Done originally as a pencil drawing for the base then various settings of air brush in photoshop. Chuffed to bits that way it came out too. Biker
Same Humungus design just added the caption this time.
If you haven’t seen Mad Max2 then it’s a waste of time trying to explain who this bloke is. So go see the film and sit back and prepare to be blown away. Variations of this design available, see my portfolio for ‘em.
Mad Max’s Black Falcon. The Road Warrior. / You’ve seen it, you’ve heard it, and you’ve still got Questions?! / Shut the gate on this one Maxy. It’s the Duck’s Guts. / It sucks nitro. 600 hp at the wheels. A p-piece from here a p-piece from there, it just sorta came together.
