Whoops! I just realised I never uploaded these here! OK, so I have performed onstage as Ace Ventura a handful of times before. However, for Q-Con (this June) I am teasing that it is his last ever appearance. It's another ruse, as I'm simply meaning that it will be his last skit performance and his last appearance for a while!
For these, I went with a simplistic style, showing some iconic parts of the costume, allowing them to speak on their own. I took the photos myself, used the magic wand tool to cut the elements out, then applied a few effects to the photo, to make it look like a painting. I also paid homage to the anime Cowboy Bebop, which has the line 'See you, space cowboy' at the end of the final episode. I even sourced the font used in that show, so i could replicate it, crudely score out 'space cowboy' and replace it with 'pet detective!'
These posters seem to be doing their job, as I've had a few friends message me, scared that I was retiring my signature Ace Ventura costume! Ain't I a stinker?
