Hello all,

 

I hope this isn't too cheeky being my first post and all but I've just set myself up an Etsy shop to sell some Bond screen prints I made last year and thought you guys might want to take a look.

 

I'm a huge Bond fan (so will certainly be checking out the rest of the forums) and an admirer of minimalist movie posters, so thought I'd have a go at my own. I've created a print for all 23 films, with the aim of encapsulating each through a single image.

 

Check them out here: www.etsy.com/shop/indyd

 

I'd love to hear your feedback!

Novel and amusing. Thanks for that.

 

What's the Skyfall one meant to be, though? I'm probably being thick.

Maybe the yellyfish lightning when Bond is fighting with Patrice?

I do wonder if I made this one a bit too obscure!

 

Silva has a big speech about rats at one point and refers to himself and Bond as being 'the two rats left in the barrel'. This kind of summed up the whole film for me - Silva and Bond fighting like the last two rats

Welcome to the Forum, Indyd! Hope to see you around here more! :D

 

Very well done on them, they're all great. I especially like 'You Only Live Twice', 'Moonraker' and the haunting simplicity of 'Octopussy'.

 

All of them emit that original Fleming covers that were minimal yet mysterious.

Aaah! Ofcourse, it are two rats. I didn't see it. I feel a little stupid right now! Thanks for clearing that up!

Very nice. I find Casino particularly ironic.

Some great ones there, I love this clear, minimalist/reduced-to-the-max approach. Splendid!

The Die Another Day one is the Jinx's dress, isn't it ?  https://encrypted-tb...SGcJtDlGLa7Fglg

Thank you for all the comments! It's really nice to hear some feedback from people who know their Bond.

 

I'm a massive fan of minimalist stuff - particularly artists like Olly Moss (check out his movie posters, they're great) so was tentative about doing something myself

 

 

Very good !

It's not, although from looking at that picture it could double as that too! The image is actually of a fencing mask :O)

These are fantastic and pretty well thought out! I love the microchip for AVTAK and how you used the Carver Media Network logo for TND...

 

Well done and welcome to CBn
