Miq Willmott joined the Hot Wheels design team in 1999 as a Graphic Designer. He came from the record industry where he designed many T-shirts and album covers as well as being recognized as an accomplished artist. Hot Wheels graphics evolved as well under Miq. They got more complex as he pushed the boundaries of what could be executed with a tampo machine. Some of the most incredible work was seen on the Halloween Highway Series cars decorated by Miq and Wayne Scott.
