I was fortunate to be given a chance to design for the BPST which would later be called the USOpen/ NPST (National Professional Surfing Tour) I felt more fortunate and blessed when I won the bid against 5 other design teams.. This whole look would turn into that years overall Brand. It would get TV coverage in Prime Ticket, the score cards, envelops, brochures, Banners would sport this logo. I Hand drew the bottom Pro Surfing Tour letters making it unique at the time...

NASCAR Fire suits I did for the Transformer DVD release. They would lean towards the Randy Newman suit but would simplify it leaning to a solid red top, solid blue bottom (black edge remain).. Budget wise it just wasn't practical. They had to create the the same suits for the pit crew etc.. When designing, it's better to go extreme and work your way down, than to start out normal (mediocre) and try to work it up...
