In September 2002, and after 4 seasons on the Sci Fi Channel, Farscape was cancelled. Fans of the show immediately started a grassroots campaign to bring it back (and it ultimately did in the form of a 4 hour miniseries). The "Wanted" posters were used by the fans for brochures, buttons, postcards, stickers, tshirts, etc, ...and posters. In a way, they became the unofficial identity of the campaign.
Each "Wanted" poster uses a stylized image of a character from Farscape. I limited the colors of each piece and gave them a posterized look not only for easier reproduction but to give it a more grassroots/from-the-street feel -- less slick corporate. By the time I was finished, 101 posters were completed. This artwork (above) is the combination of 9 of the very first ones created.
And us Scapers are STILL looking for Season 5... or at least, something more.
Absolutely astounding, ratscape! I've seen these more times than I can count, and i appreciate and admire every single detail you put into your works. I love em to death, and you truly did a remarkable job with them! I'm forever in awe of your talents!
Thank you, thank you. Nope, no spotlight. But they were in the magazine! Issue 10. There was an article about the cancellation & campaign and a bunch of these wanted posters were used as visuals throughout the story.
