Alexa from Pop Elegantiarum here. I've mentioned before that I'm always on the lookout for great original film poster art, and currently I'm drooling over these beauties by Nate Black. Nate lasers his poster designs into wood (Baltic Birch, to be specific) and then paints over the design with a hand roller for a distinctive, vintage look. He sells them over at his shop, and at totally reasonable prices to boot. Here are some of my favorites.

Cool! Some I'd love to see: Mother and Son (Vast panorama of the trees with the title characters small in the centre), Badlands (Another "trees on wood" visual) and The Night of the Hunter. (Just Mitchum's hands. That alone would have been a perfect ad campaign.):)
That would be knuckles visible for that last one.
the bloody boat paddles remind me of the antichrist scissors poster
He should do American Beauty in rose petals.
i like the Ripley poster alot, but i don't think it really captures the essence of the film. Posters don't really have to do that, per se, but the film is so much more than just that scene.
I wonder what the heck he'd do with something like Birth though.
wait. who's 'Kim Novac'?
Mmm, good point Derreck. Someone should correct his laser next time.
Thanks Alexa! His takes on gattica and Edward Scissorhands rock.
Yeah, I was about to purchase Vertigo until I saw "Novac".
Shame.
does anyone know if he is still doing these?? I saw his groundhog day poster and LOVED it but didn't have money to buy it. Now I do but sadly his etsy shop is completely closed. Anyway I was hoping that maybe someone could put me in touch with him and he could make just one more for me :) thank you
