Petr "Sali Šakal" Salak

When brute force fails, try a pencil, a laser – or a bit of sarcasm.

I draw, engrave, assemble vectors – and bits of code.
For me, creation is a connection of hands, mind, and machine.


I enjoy blending technology with a personal touch – whether I’m sketching traditionally, building vector art, or designing laser engraving patterns.

These days I focus mainly on wooden decorations, but I still can’t resist the pull of a (digital) pen from time to time.

My work spans more than one path – from logos and business cards, to custom illustrations and designs for handmade wooden products.

One of my digital illustrations – animal themes are close to my heart.

I also served as the lead designer and Lua programmer of the modern main menu and nationality-specific UI components for the game Original War. I’ve long contributed to community projects and tools supporting the modding scene of this iconic Czech title.

I offer custom designs for engravings, nameplates, gifts, or unique decorations. My style is adaptable – but I always aim to bring together tech and humanity.
