Boone da King

Boone is here again, now as a King… On a distance it's a clean and classic design, and the closer you come the more you will discover, and you will find a lot of details related to a King and his Castle.

The more you look the more details you will find with a King's theme... On the chin his name on a Knight's flag, and medieval posters, and when you look really close you will see the mask is starting to fall apart, and there you will see a brick wall, from the King's Castle…

Me and Peter have been working together for so many years, it's always such a joy to paint for you Peter. On all Peter's masks Boone pops up, just check out some of his previous masks on my site. Boone is the mascot from Peter's school years.

On every mask we have done Boone in different styles and themes… and now with Los Angeles Kings, we made him of course as a King :-) Here he is in old school king outfit with a crown and a sword and stuff.

Peter wanted a design in a very clean and classic style, were Peter tribute the clean lines of the Los Angeles Kings uniform. With strong contrasts and a gentle use of colors it creates a strong design on a distance.

The design is pumped with Super FX such as Holographics FX, Metallic FX and 3D PaintTech and much more :-)

You are welcome to check out the mask in the mask gallery, in the App or on our Facebook page.

Thank you all for your interest.

Boone becomes a fighter jet pilot

The Winnipeg Jets goalie Peter Mannino always wants the cute mascot Boone from his school years on the mask. I love when a character follows a goalie through the career, and to evolve the character from year to year. I have painted for Peter for a couple of years and we have placed Boone in all kind of situations on his masks, from a fisherman or transformed him into a bird when Peter played in Atlanta Thrashers... Now when Peter plays with Winnipeg Jets, the immediate idea was to create Boone as a fighter jet pilot. So I dressed him up in a pilot outfit and gave him a cute fighter plane to fly with... :)

Around this I created an effective, crisp and clear Jets design with the red leaf in focus. I also created the body of the mask as the body of a plane with nits and metal effects. The metal has been torn open, Boone has to fly carefully... The design of the mask is also mixed with a design connection to Peters pads. And as usual, lots and lots of details.

As you can see I had lots of fun when I created Peter Mannino's Winnipeg Jets mask design a hot summer day. Welcome to check it out in the mask gallery and on Facebook.

Action is the theme on Mannino's new Atlanta design

It was much fun to create Peter Mannino's speed-filled Atlanta Thrashers mask design. A cruel monster style Thrasher bird in action on one side sets the agenda for the design, and pumps out the power that Peter plays with! On the other side a graphic design in action with the Atlanta logo with cool 3-D effects. And of course Peter's own little mascot shows up, just like on his previous masks.
