Iron Maiden’s new album

Already at number one in the charts!

The social phenomenon that is Iron Maiden have just released their fifteenth album entitled “The Final Frontier” celebrates the bands best album yet.

Fear of the Dark was the first cover, I Virtual XI was the 2nd, Death on the Road was the 3rd, and Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg was 4th.

The Final Frontier was number 5

The  Album cover  was  again commissioned by  Peacock Design,  and they approached Artist Partners once again to commission the artist and illustrator  Mel Grant to produce this very prestigious  cover. Amazingly this is  the fifth  album cover that Mel Grant has illustrated for them over the years, and he was delighted to be asked. Iron Maiden are a very hands on band when it comes to their cover art  and the art direction and collaboration with Peacock and Mel Grant produced a formidable image.

Bend Over and think of England!

Garry Walton’s cheeky artworks for Keep Britain Tidy’s latest campaign have caused quite a stir. Garry was  commissioned to create a poster in the classic saucy sea-side style, to  be used across various media platforms. The artworks have sparked  national debate, being  deemed as too risque by some. We think the  posters are great and are right behind the campaign (excuse the pun).
