I should learn to spend more time on articles and interviews. Maybe then I will not look so lazy/stupid.

I promise a much better interview next time I post something like this.

I dont think his websites are amazing, but his portfolio is pretty good.

he forgot to mention chris welch and anthony in his inspiration list ^^
but he's good designer and nice interview

Michael Novikov is a very talented designer, for sure.

**grandcartel** · 08-11-2006, 05:23 PM

All his designs look exactly the same, they need variety.

Yeah, they are all the same. I wouldnt pay much for a design that looked like ten others.

Yeah a lot of orange in most of his designs as well, but he is still very good. His work looks like Anthony's which is nice as well. :thumbup:

He's a good designer though.

**Hoang** · 08-12-2006, 10:37 AM

Not a fan of his stuff. He talks about not following trends but most of his designs look inspired by Anthony's.

I don't want to get on anyone's bad side, but what is the purpose of this interview? A shameless plug on both sides? I strongly doubt that you decided to interview Michael based on his "amazing" work which is obviously extremely inspired by designers previously mentioned.

**netdesignz** · 08-16-2006, 11:11 PM

Wow, talk about negativity.

I don't see anything wrong with posting an interview with a talented designer, and a little about how he got started. I think it's useful to other people in his field.

**imported_Stan** · 08-16-2006, 11:15 PM

The main point of the interview was also to add the review that he is VERY reliable and fast with his service, while he may be inspired by others, he still does a good job and is very quick to complete work.

Many of the best designers have the hardest times keeping deadlines or even finishing projects.

This man speaks the truth.

Have to agree, nothing but plugging.

Honestly didn't learn anything new except he plays PC games.

Then wouldn't this belong in the "Advertise It!" section?

Yeah freedom of speech is overrated, not.

**Josh P** · 08-20-2006, 12:48 PM

wow, I think my IQ dropped after reading this

agreed to pretty much everything everyone said.. his work is over-inspired, un-original, and this is advertising...
