It may be okay to use something as practice, but as a professional, I'm not sure it is okay to use names and representations if the project was killed unless that fact is mentioned with the display. He definitely isn't entitled to sell them unless that was part of the original agreement. May

I like them, not as much as my existing riv poster, but if they were offered i would have probably picked one up. In fairness, his portfolio does say that it is a poster exploration done for Rivendell. Which seems to be an accurate statement. He also doesn't appear to be selling them. On

I like the idea of them but agree that that they don't seem to fit with Rivendell. The posters where you can read the bike name are much better than the ones where you can barely read the model. And the text on the bottom is lame both in content and design- IMHO. Cheers! cm -- You

Meh, i'm not a fan, mainly because i don't think you can tell what they are posters for if you're not a member of the RBW list. And while i agree that anyone can post anything they want on the internet, if you're paid for something even if it's to abandon a project (and asked by the customer

Hmm... If it's work you did, you can pretty much show it, even if it was killed. Selling actual posters would be unethical, IMO, but showing the work you did is a pretty fair use of Fair Use. However, I would clearly state that what's shown is a portfolio piece, and never made it to

The Sam Hillborne is the only one that's easily legible, and does look good. It has a nice blend of bold font use, and abstract planetary graphic elements placed to side, leaving enough room for the text to show through. The others are hurt by letting the art block out the text. - Andrew,

A bit of a surprise. Dan Blackman is a talented artist, and I found out about him when I toured the Pointer Brand factory in Bristol, VA--when i was on my book tour. I liked the work he did for pointer, contacted him and talked about posters. He and Dave were talking, and I/Dave too THOUGHT we
