I’m driving this blog under the name WEBRINGJUSTICE, the main slogan for my crew Ultraboyz, but i’m also a freelance graphic artist/illustrator living and working in Paris. I’m operating under the name Func’88. I’m running and art-directing a Skateboard company named HazeWheels along various other brands for Basementhill distribution.
Below, you can peep at a selection of my works. Want to see more? browse my daily stuff through the blog selection,

Carhartt Store. Paris. 2009
“It was super fun and the Astrobastard mixtapes received a “cult” status from the underground audience at the time….”
