Phil Noto Trans Am Champions!!  It was a great show filled with more impressive Phil Noto artwork and we would like to thank him for taking the time, yet again, to put together another amazing event! As always, thanks to all who attending the show.  You know we love you more than hash browns.  We’re also grateful to comic pros Darwyn Cooke,  Amanda Connor  and Jimmy Palmiotti for spending the evening at Uberbot.  And, of course, thanks to Jim Carchidi for his shutterbug skills.  Check out Phil’s art in our online store!  Peace and Love!!

Trans Am Champions!!!  Not only is that the name of Phil Noto’s ‘08 art event but it is also what you will be if you attend!  Do you want to be a champion?  Do you want to witness the unveiling of beautiful new works from the talented Phil Noto?  Do you want to mingle with other creative and talented residents of Central Florida?  If so, we hope to see you this Saturday at 7pm.   It is sure to be an evening to remember.  Also, this will most likely be our last big solo art show before we relocate into a larger space for the new year!  We truly hope to see you here!!!

HADOKEN 08 has concluded and it was a seriously good time. We put together this show on a small level to test the interest and we’re convinced that we need to come back with HADOKEN 09 on a HUGE level!  Thank you to all of the artists that took time to enter a piece.  All (and we mean ALL) of the entries are very lovely and it was artist’s work that made the show so much fun!!  Thank you to everyone that came out to support the local artists involved!!

Here are the winners for the evening.  More images after the jump!!

#1 James Dormer Schneider - Welcome Home [Bioshock]

#2  Dres13 - Street Fighters Gone Wild

How much do we really need to tell you about master artist Phil Noto? His yearly art shows at Uberbot are legendary and this year will be no exception! Prepare yourself as Phil unleashes all new paintings for your eyes to feast on!!  Expect massive 36 x 48 inch canvas works for the serious collector as well smaller affordable pieces for fans hit by the tough economy.  Big or small, they are all sure to be filled with lovely ‘noto girls’.  We look forward to seeing you!
