I haven’t done anything on/for Halloween in years. Last month I decided to get out of the house and pay tribute to the awesome typographer/designer Florian Hardwig. His “Neue Welt” portrait is something of a local legend, and in honor of this I set out to reenact it.

I shared my “costume” via twitter:

A couple hours later Florian responded with this:

@rnkeller Here we go. http://twitpic.com/32ktag

He pulled off recreating my profile pic in a matter of minutes.

Florian is amazing, funny, talented, and an all together great guy. Check out some of his work here and his prolific Flickr stream.
