Fleet Street has teamed up with our friends at Boing Boing for another awesome Yuki 7 Giveaway! To enter, tweet the title of your own dream movie and tag it #yuki7. The contest ends July 4th and we will pick 3 winners to receive the following prizes:
And don't forget this Friday is the official release party and art show at Gallery Nucleus! Come out to meet the artists, enjoy some fine cocktails, and see/purchase the book for the first time!
I remember asking my dad to play "Beat It" over and over as a kid so that I could dance around in our living room, punching my fists in the air. I really miss MJ. I hope E.T. gave him a ride in his spaceship.
These Yuki 7 lobby cards are going to be included as a set of 8"x10" mini prints with the Seductive Espionage: Collector's Edition. This package is limited to just 100 copies and includes a super cool plastic slipcase, numbered bookplate, and these exclusive prints. You won't be able to get these anywhere else!
Also, here's a peak at some brand new screenprinted Yuki posters! These will be available from our store in the next few weeks.
Also, I don't think I've mentioned here yet that the super-cool Grace Danico of Grain Edit did a super-sized interview with me, which you can find HERE. It's got a lot of info about my process, background, and the origins of Yuki!
Oh man, how awesome is this everyone? Marshall Alexander, a toy designer from the Netherlands, made this rad Yuki papertoy! Even better, it's available for everyone to download and build from his website! GET IT NOW!
Check out this totally hott Yuki drawing by the super talented Britney Lee!
Also, Horia Dociu has posted his awesome Yuki piece from the book!
We're super excited to have teamed up with Grain Edit for the Yuki 7 Screen Gems Giveaway! Enter to win an advance copy of the book, a Yuki 7 t-shirt, and a full set of movie poster prints! This is definitely the best and craziest giveaway we've ever done!
I've been completely shocked and humbled by all of the amazing press we've gotten over the past week for Yuki, and wanted to thank everyone who's taken the time to mention the project on your blog or website! Here are a few snippets that really made me smile:
"If the art in that trailer is indicative of the end product, I am sold on it already. It gets everything right. Saul Bass style titling, a pitch perfect emulation of rear projection driving scenes." - Bryan White, Cinema Suicide
"The prize flower of Dart's garden, however, is Yuki 7, a sultry Japanese superspy who makes Erin Esurance look like Velma from Scooby Doo." - Robo, Action Typist
"I received a copy of Kevin Dart’s Seductive Espionage: The World of Yuki 7 the other day and I still can’t put the book down. I’m awed by the beautiful artwork and illustrations showcased throughout its pages." - Ward Jenkins, Drawn
As if things couldn't get any better, there's been a slew of Yuki art popping up on some very talented peoples' blogs:
Gallery Nucleus is also now selling a set of super cool Yuki 7 Fashion Dolls that I designed. Now you can build your own Yuki 7 doll and dress her in any of 4 included outfits! They're pretty fun to build. I've already made like 8!
*UPDATE! Check out the trouble Yuki is getting into over on Sean Szeles' blog!! Too cool!
