ELGALLO Blog Title Logo and Illustration



This is "elgallo"'s title logo and illustration of "elgallo" blog top. I made this title banner imaging Mexico. It is colorful, and shabby. The town lines with type 2 of Volkswagens and the rotted building, and the TV antenna of the utility pole stands out.

I can make the design of a top banner of such a blog (including illustration) from about $50.

BIG FROG Kyushu Tour Poster


BIG FROG was JAM band that represented Japan. The design of this flier and the poster is the one before BIG FROG dissolves to Kyushu when coming to a live tour. BIG FROG at that time sold clothes etc. of the hemp material by live opening the doors with apparel brand THC(Tokyo Hemp Connection).
The BIG FROG robot is controlled by the guitar, the drum, and the song. They came from Tokyo from the missile and the attack to Kyushu defense from the terrorist state. The centere side of the cockpit is equipped with the speaker of 5000W by the stereo, and a jammin' groovy sound wraps Kyushu.
The BIG FROG robot is a mechanism (crimsoning of eyes when the missile is smoked, the flows of the liquid that contains the bufotenine from the back of eyes, and going out).
It became it so when aiming at a psychedelic poster like Wes Wilson. TIPI was put up in a live place in Kyushu various places (Fukuoka, Aso, and Kagoshima).
