 I’m talking to you.

Steve Ravenscraft, the illustrator of Spies Inc., can out design any other designer, any day of the week, in any medium.  InDesign, Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Flash –  the whole Adobe Creative Suite. What’s that? You’re backing down now?  Well, maybe you should go home and take your baby crayons with you.

Disclaimer: I’m not encouraging any actual physical violence to break out over this blog post.

What I am encouraging is for you to check out his designs at www.ravengraphics.com or better yet, take a mini-tour of Spies Inc. at www.storybuildersbooks.com

A friend of mine, a photographer and designer, was looking through Spies Inc. this week and summed up Steve’s design like this: “It’s like you’re looking through a virtual world in a book.”

What we love about Steve is that he is meticulous, a perfectionist if not obsessive, about the end product.

Check this out:  I asked him for a simple spy disguise – glasses or a mustache – so we could disguise photos – and here’s what he gave me.

Need I say more?
