I hope Joey’s new mercedes will take a stab at maneuvers like these…

All wrapped up on my end.  Time for our man Jason to take the reigns and flashify it all.  I wonder what other ways we could flashify it…maybe add some easter eggs somewhere in the issue and the first 5 to find them get a prize or something.  That’d be cool, right?

On another note…I was able to apply some of my newly acquired illustrator skills to this issue…nothing really fancy except the title on the D1 spread.  But even that isn’t anything special.  But I definitely was loving the text tool in illustrator compared to the one in photoshop.  Much more versatile and easy to use.

Also in the issue is a new K&N ad.  It got approved in first draft form, which doesn’t usually happen when doing this kind of design.  But with each ad I complete for a company, the better the design gets…usually. That’s always a good thing.

Anyways, hope you enjoy it.  And stay tuned to wreckedmagazine.com for all you sideways news.
