Keith Poon’s Hammerhead Shark

IMG_2913

There’s a new fish (well.. shark) in the water.  Building on the success of his Sharky vinyl, Keith Poon has created a bigger brother — a hammerhead shark.  This as yet unnamed hammerhead vinyl sculpted by NEMO is bigger (taller and wider) and meaner (check out the crooked hook + knife) than his little bro.

While Sharky’s got some bite he’s also sleek and streamlined.  In contrast, Hammerhead  is a hulking beast – open intimidation seems to be his game.   From a design perspective, ol ‘hammy’s got a lot more front-facing surface area for artwork from his noggin to his larger ‘belly area’ due to his almost closed mouth.  The first production hammerhead is expected to swim into stores late this year.  After the jump – a full hammerhead shark photo gallery.
