V-Raw has become an exciting hive of activity and is keeping track of lots of Australian artist, designers, musicians and photographers through a portal on myspace. Myspace is the #1 social network for the creative communities and V-Raw is worth checking out - regularly!

New shirt on redbubble: Neapolitan Ice Cream

scott — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 07:47:31 +0000

I was thinking about if the Neapolitan ice cream flavours of strawberry, vanilla and chocolate were characters and came up with this picture:

Strawberry is girly, Vanilla is happy and Choc looks tough but a really big melting softy!

Flashing Avatar

For a long time on myspace mikoto had a little avatar of the badges you could buy from the badge shop. It has been replaced with the flashing square you see here that is in actual fact flashing through all 40+ mikoto Tshirts that you can buy from redbubble. The little avatar has got a lot of attention and I know its a bit over the top but thats just the way we likes it! A big thank to all of you who have purchased a mikoto tshirt from redbubble or my market stall.

The Samurai from Melbourne

scott — Sun, 13 Jan 2008 09:25:46 +0000

Traveling to Melbourne for the week was a great experience. walking the streets of the CBD I count not believe how much graffiti, art, music and culture seemed to pour out of every lane-way. I was really impressed by the graffiti method using white paint with black stencils and upon my return home to Sydney I created this design.
The design depicts a Samurai and he is in a bad mood, his dagger is drawn and one hand rests on a samurai sword ready to go. I have tried to achieve a balance between the enormous headdress by stretching the Japanese kanji for samurai (?) underneath him. The writing also gives it perspective, as if in the street and I particularly like it how the symbol is red like blood.

Web Site Hacked!

scott — Thu, 03 Jan 2008 11:19:11 +0000

The mikoto website has received a number of cosmetic and functional changes that include a new header image, lighter woodgrain background and a new gallery page.

The header is filled with some of the characters that will be on the next run of T-shirts I print for Paddington Markets that you can currently buy online from my mikoto profile at Redbubble.

The new gallery page will steadily grow with mikoto designs and drawings That can be then used on website such as myspace, PC desktops, screen savers and print outs. I will include not only finished designs but preliminary sketches and hand drawings.

The real reason for the change though was to fix my website after it was hacked into!
