Today we celebrate the art of rodolforever, a Mexican illustrator and graphic designer who developed a passion for comic books and superhero movies - and it shows!
Here is a short selection of his posters and illustrations embracing Art Deco and Ancient Greek mythology, Expressionist movies and Conan Doyle, vamipres and robots.
Darlings, why not start your week over at Diselpunk Encyclopedia enjoying these lovely Deco-inspired posters by rodolforever? What's Diselpunk, you ask? Imagine the futuristic feel of Steampunk applied to the design, decor, and fashions of 1920-1950 or so. It's deliberately, delightfully anachronistic, and well worth a peek or two.

I thought you might enjoy these, Acadia darling.
These are excellent. before I even read the Diselpunk explanation – I saw the paralells to the early 1940′s & 1950′s posters – including WWII posters.
This modern update on the Art Deco style has really been taking off lately – I expect we’ll see more when the Gatsby movie finally hits the theaters.
I really love the adapted deco style. It reminds me of some of the art around Dallas’ Fair Park (something I’ve been wanting to do a post on but haven’t done the legwork for yet..) I think the Aphrodite might be my favorite.
It’s certainly a favorite around here, Rika.
Holler if you do that post – I’d love to see it!
