This Is The Culmination Of A Six Week Class On 3D Modeling That’s Required For Me To Officially Grab

Trying to explain a particular nitpick I have with some typographic designs lead me to make this to illustrate what I’m talking about instead of trying to explain it in words.

Specifically, I really dislike it when people break up words like “Macchiato” into illegible crap that makes you pause for a bit, and then you’re stuck there for twice as long, trying to read what the fuck the word is. (Also, legit, I actually don’t like the Supercell logo that much, and it’s a perfect example of what I’m talking about.)

I may try to experiment with a similar square grid later on, but something more legible--because I do like how effective the economy of space is in things like this, I just hate it when it’s illegible as fuck, and I wouldn’t have made this if it weren’t for illustrative purposes.

I am pretty happy with the color scheme, though.

Here's an after-work selfie that absolutely no one asked for! Also, yes, I do have a day job. Sometimes it's why I come home and then don't do any art or design. Not always, but sometimes.

I decided to draw some very tiny, low res Stardust Crusaders for the 50 followers Twitch stream today! Also, it turned out to be a good endurance test—I haven’t sustained 7 hours of solid drawing in a while.

(Fun Note; Avdol actually turned out to be my favorite one to draw. I also wonder if Araki wanted to kill him off because he’s so detailed...but that’s actually what I enjoyed about Avdol’s design when I actually got into drawing him.)

...I just got a glitchy version of the taxes design a few minutes after I posted it. I have no idea how that happened, but here.

Things I should have done in the past 12 hours; sleep.

Things I did in the past 12 hours; worked on something that’s still not done, but oh boy, do I really like fiddling around with halftones to make a minimalistic a e s t h e t i c design composition I wanted to do for a while.

Also, this has been my jam for this. No lie.

My Type and Design class had us doing a wine packaging project out of the blue.

That said, this is the result of that.

I don't actually consider this to be a proper packaging project, especially considering that I have a larger packaging project on my plate at the moment, and my professor for the class that this is for allowed us to use mock-ups. Incidentally, you can find the mock-up I used for this over on Behance.

I did design everything else, though.

I’m at the point where I never want to work with this color combo ever again.

I’ve been on a roll for the past day or so.

Anyway, have some gothic angel amputation as done by a demon.

I felt like my headphone cords draped around my head would make a neat aesthetic. I was right. Also, I like my face.

In Love with Love, 2018

I’ve finally decided to finish this stupid thing after keeping it on hold for about five years—and loving someone not for the person, but because you desperately want to be loved seems like such a terrible thing to make an illustration about, but I finally finished it.
