"It's Gonna Take a MON-Tage!"

UPS Montage, 14x11" Pencil and digital

Hey guys. About 2 months ago I got the opportunity to start work on a project for UPS's main New York office. They were looking for someone to provide them with an illustration that would encompass the 11 districts in the Northeast Region that would be used for their main office as well as for a gift for upper level executives.

It was pretty daunting working for them, making sure I adhere to their request for brand loyalty (making sure all the official "UPS colors" are in line), and the image itself was a bit challenging seeing has how I have no previous "montage" experience- which in itself had some elements I'm not familiar with. The time from sketch approval to finish was a little shorter than I'd like, but in the end we were both happy with how the piece came out. What more can I ask for?
Thanks guys!

WTF! This is insane and holy shit! This is just awesome. A lot of your illustration at the end of your senior year had these split compositions so I don't see how this wouldn't have been a walk in the park for you, but in the end this looks wonderful!

Congrats!
