  For those who dont know him -
  http://www.siscottstudio.com/

  

  One of the worlds best illustrators with a very unique style, which im sure you've all seen.

  Had a nice chat with him and he is probably the nicest, most down to earth , no nonsense designers ive ever met. Very modest.

  Meeting Adrian shaugnessy next week too, which will be even better.

  'one of the best in the world' could be a slight overstatement.

  • maybe, kindof, good stuff, but yes– wordssssss1/6

    depends on size of list
    1-10 1-100 1-1000– idiots2/6

    well he said 'world' so i'd guess the list would be humankind.– airey3/6

    not really no.– Hombre_Lobo4/6

    best list, not world list... he said "one of" well one of how many of the best?– idiots5/6

    i think he is one of the best.– OSFA6/6

  Flavor of the Month.

  • flavor of november 2007 ? :D

  bored2death, can totally see your point.
  Very unique style, which could potentially get old very fast.

  Don't get me wrong, I love some of his stuff, but I don't think he's "one of the world's best illustrators," personally.

  He pretty much owns his own style and countless others have ripped it off ever since he became well known. You can pretty much mention his name or show his work to a designer and assume they know it.

  Not many of us can lay claim to that, regardless of if we like it or not..

  <sidenote>have seen Si speak and honestly it was the worst speach ever. either he had a bad day or did not want to present. he gave a fuck about the listening crowd who repeatedly asked him to speak up but he would continue to mumble on, so it was basically a waste as nothing could be heard and looking at slides of his work that can be seen on his site does not justify any fee.
  </sidenote>

  however, during this presentation he gave, i noticed (and that might not be only his style or work) that every single piece of his work be it for coke, chevrolet, sony, or amazon or any other item looked pretty much exactly the same. the style is so unique and closed in what you can do with it, it's kind of "done" after seeing it 5 times. careful there. I felt bad for the clients who pretty much got the same as another client just with a different "word" elaborated on. just my 2 cents

  • No way, maybe he was on a good day when he spoke to us!
    Can see your point about his limited style dude.– Hombre_Lobo1/2

    maybe overdone, but many people have a specific style they stick to. And his is done by hand.– juhls2/2
