Heads Up: Delicious Design League's "The Ambassador" and Todd Slater's "The Corbomite Maneuver" Poster

This looks to be an interesting release for Mondo because, to the best of my knowledge, they've never created a poster for a documentary. Or if they have, they've done it so infrequently that I'm under the impression it's never been done before. Granted, the doc in question is being distributed by Drafthouse Films, meaning the corporate connection makes this print's creation a no-brainer. But that's really beside the point, isn't it? We're here to talk about art, dammit! And it's with that in mind that I'd like to say Delicious Design League's poster for The Ambassador appears to be as good looking as it is clever given the film's focus and the larger than life character journalist Mads Brügger creates while exploring the ins and outs of the blood diamond trade. And if that wasn't enough, Mondo has also seen fit to release not one, but two versions of Todd Slater's "The Corbomite Maneuver" Star Trek poster. Todd's impressive kaleidoscopic construction is always mind boggling in its detail and his latest proves to be no different. You can check 'em out below.
