/// Meet Chris B. Murray /// Here's the last instalment of our interview with @chrisbmurray. Check out what he has to say, and don't forget to drop by the store next Friday night to see some of his work! 🏀 HV: Out of the series of NBA legends that we're going to display next week in the exhibition, which is your favourite - either as an actual player / or your favourite to illustrate? CBM: The Larry Bird and Penny Hardaway are probably my favorite illustrations out've the bunch. Kyrie still by far my favorite player....as a little guy he does it all on the court in a rugged yet smooth sort've display! 🏀 HV: Have you been over to the UK before, or have any interesting UK connections basketball wise? CBM: I don't but a close friend and basketball teammate played for the London Leopards for a few seasons. And another buddy just moved back from living there for 8 months on a short stint. I hope to visit soon! 🏀 HV: We're going to have a DJ dropping some tunes for the exhibition opening. What 3 tracks would you pick to get people in the right mood for checking out your NBA Legends series? CBM: Hmmm thats a tough one. I'd say Halftime by Nas, Whatcha Gon Do - Terror Squad and the main track from He Got Game by Public Enemy! ✌🏻️ #chrisbmurray #nba #legends #basketball #anyforty #hardwoodventures (at Hardwood Ventures)
/// MEET CHRIS B. MURRAY /// Ahead of the @chrisbmurray NBA Legends exhibition, that will be curated by @anyforty at our store on the 28th July, we've asked Chris some questions to get to know him a bit better. Here's part 1! 🏀 HV: Which NBA team do you follow, and what drew you to that particular team? CBM: I haven't followed a particular NBA team since Iverson played for the 6ers or J Dubs for the Kings. Basketball was so much more exciting to me back then as a whole. Now I follow players more so Kyrie, Westbrook, Curry, James, Durant. Kyrie's my guy though! 🏀 HV: What's it like being a basketball fan living in Philadelphia, given the 76ers struggles? Do people trust 'The Process' and see good things for the city in the near future? CBM: I'm not from Philly originally (upstate NY born n' raised). I wish I lived here when Iverson was a rookie. He changed the game. I used to paint my bootleg Reeboks to look like his signature Question shoe. But like most cities, they only back the teams when they're good. Everyone still wears the gear / hats etc but the stadiums don't really fill up until the team starts proving themselves again. 🏀 HV: You cover quite a wide range of subjects in your work from movies, TV, animation and music, but seem to come back to basketball quite a lot. What is it about the sport that keeps you putting pen to paper? CBM: Basketball was my first love. I've been drawing forever but I loved basketball as a kid. I worked just as hard on my game as I did on my art...unfortunately I come from a small town in upstate NY where nobody really looks for basketball talent. That and I'm only 6 foot...so art seemed like a more realistic profession. So I guess now I put my hoop dreams on paper haha! ✌🏻️ You can see artwork by Chris at our Chris B. Murray NBA Legends Art Exhbition on the 28th July. #chrisbmurray #nba #anyforty #hardwoodventures #legends #nbalegends #art #basketball (at Hardwood Ventures)
Thanks to our pal from AnyForty (go check them out HERE) who pointed us in the direction of MIGHTY SHORT and the potential new vinyl figure coming from their studio. A graphic designer, Mighty Short has worked with a wide range of global brands (Adidas, Neff, WWE, Disney), but it’s great to see that they’re venturing…
New Vinyl Figure Coming Soon from MIGHTYSHORT Perhaps? was originally published on The Toy Chronicle

Spotted this lovely pic over on the @anyforty feed the winning designs from the Pride refix comp are in, looking damn good and ready to ship. Looks like you can get all three for the price of two with their promotion at the moment go check it out, I can't wait to see mine in the flesh it looks like it's printed just right #anyforty #anyfortyfamily #artisourweapon
Pretty stoked that yesterday, I found out I'm in the last 8 of @anyforty's competition. I'm not fussed with winning, obviously, it's always a bonus. But giving myself sometime to do something I've just not had chance to do, was a better prize than anything. Thanks to anyone that's said they dig it. I appreciate that a ton. The others involved are @abegale @badleprechaun @scottneilsonconcepts @keomatch @badnewsmikehughes and @worldincrisis so give them all a check. Most importantly. Have fun today. #illustration #illustrator #ink #lumberjack #lumberlion #baker2d #anyforty #art #vector #axe #red #alwaysred #apparel #life
