Qubic

Qubic is the name of a 3D tic-tac-toe game. This pack design is intense. Huge type with a giant technical tower above and a long description of the game below. Sounds... Fun?

QUBIC will crush you under it's transparent grids.

After doing a little research on this game, I came across video game versions for Atari and the art on on those games is super old-school comic like that I thought they should be showcased as well. Here they are!

There are a lot of awesomely silly things happening in this graphic, I dig it. 
An oasis? A triangular black hole? Perspective study?

This is badass because you're going to fly into space and play a robot in TTT. 
I can't tell exactly but your dog may come with you?

Vintage Mtn Dew

While walking about, an old Mountain Dew bottle caught my eye at the Antique Mall. The fact that there was a guy pointing a gun at what seemed to be a robber (or neighbor?) and that there was a "hillbilly style" mentioned, it begged to be photographed.

I've never looked into the history of Mountain Dew because I never drink it, but the drink has some fun historical facts about its naming and packaging.

Original bottles with the Hillbilly

Modified logo (1969), done by PepsiCo a few years after acquisition.

Antiquing

A few close-ups of classic logos found.

McCormick spices, simple and effective.

Big ol' blue dimension, lovin' it; fun for toys.

Old drugstore chain logo. Could be a play on all prescriptions, Rxall?
Not sure but the lettering is great; very nice thick and thin script with the R giving everything a resting place. Is that a pill holding shape I see?

Antiquing

This will be an on-going project in this blog; going to antique malls or stores, finding old design, taking pictures and posting them.

The first is some nice type. Long 4!
