Theses chaps are swell! They have been big in the gigposters scene for a while! The Heads of State was the first design group that I was introduced to that was involve in the modern poster culture. My initial reaction was, well, that looks sweet! Then I was like "how do they do that?" and "How can i do that?"... So now i have been fully inundated in the community that is poster making. The heads of state and other greats (Print Mafia, Lure, Micah Smith, etc. ) obviously use a screenprinting process to make there prints!
I am impressed with their amazing textured shapes and great text use! I am also inspired by their color use and "edges" that they achieve in their work!
