Thick Unit

Type: Self-initiated pop-culture parody
Role: Illustration, character design, collectible design, print design
Format: Digital collectible artwork / A5 postcard print

Thick Unit is a self-initiated lowbrow parody of the RoboCop franchise, reimagined through the language of gross out trading cards, bootleg merch, and collectible character art.

The piece turns the futuristic law enforcement machine into a washed up wreck.

The front was designed as a trading card style character illustration, with the reverse carrying a short irreverent character blurb to make the piece feel like part of a larger collectible set.

The artwork was released digitally, with an accompanying A5 physical postcard print produced as a collector reward and distributed through merch packs.
