GEarth (Gavin Earth)
Here’s an interesting thing I did today as I was trying to decide on a Generic Logo for myself. I thought about how a lot of what I do taps into several different art forms, sciences, and meditations. Instead of being so bold, yet I am that bold, as claiming the universe, I decided I would claim the Earth. The Earth isn’t someone’s copyright is it? Well at least this one is mine. I made this 3D earth using 3DStudio Max and textures available on the internet. Some of these textures I have had for over ten years. I combined them together to produce a pretty good looking (believable) Earth. I don’t know what the “G” means with the arrow but I thought it might draw some attention. I’m being careful not to make it look like someone else’s trademark. For now, it will be my generic trademark.

"Shield of Mnemosyne" by Gavin D McCall Web Hosting & Design
This is a stylized logo based on a shield found in North America. This design caught my eye after I discovered it on a website about mythos. The description that came with it definitely attracted me. The shield spoke to me so well I found that it represented me and my quest to make great designs (as well as a providing a great hosting service). Get the whole story »

"True Heavy Metal" Flyer (© 2007 True Heavy Metal.com A Forever's Industries Company) using "True Heavy Metal Seal of Quality"
Here are some samples of work that I’ve done over the last 3 years. This just a small amount of flyers that I’ve worked on. I can’t possibly put all of them here due to the time constraints. It actually took me 3 hours to write captions for about 90 samples of my work. It only took less than 3 minutes to upload all of it. You can say that the work of building this portfolio is 10 percent planning and 90 percent persistence.
True Heavy Metal has been a project I have been on for over ten years. We’re working on a concept that, in the past, wouldn’t work because of the way we were inhibited with the technology back then. Now we’re freed up to make a lot of our ideas come true and quickly. Coming in near the end of 2009 TrueHeavyMetal.com will be opening to facilitate what it used to do with mp3.com back in the day when it was a pure site and not purchased by someone else. The interest has always been in providing quality music source. We rely on a patented process of collegiate voting mixed with democratic bipartisanship. The idea is that only quality music will be allowed to come close to being accepted by the community. Before the community can vote on the music it must meet the code. Get the whole story »
