Kick-ass band posters by Christophe Lopez-Huici

Christophe Lopez-Huici works with a lot of bands to design and illustrate their CD covers, as well as their posters for performances.  While a lot of people are familiar with Christophe’s illustration and claymation, we thought we would share some of his music poster work for a change.  Christophe’s groovy style makes for some super cool posters, and he does all of the hand lettering as well:

Artist Christophe Lopez-Huici on Claymation

A fantastic documentary on Christophe and his process creating clay animation films.

Note this piece is rated R for some of Christophe’s language as well as some sparse claymation character nudity.

Christophe Lopez-Huici’s cover art for the 60 Second Swingers

Christophe Lopez-Huici recently illustrated this cover for a new 7″ single by the 60 Second Swingers.  They are a French garage punk band from La Rochelle, and this is their second release.  On the B-side is a cover they did of the song “60 Second Swingers” by Little Phil and the Night Shadows.  The band’s name was inspired by that song, and so they asked Christophe to come up with an illustration similar to the image on the original Little Phil and the Night Shadows LP.  It looks to us like Christophe nailed it!

The World of Christophe Lopez-Huici: Illustration and Claymation

His illustration approach has a hint of the very traditional French ‘bande dessinées’ (cartoon), while retaining a clear unique personality and presence:
