I actually finished the Apollo CD design portion of my own personal project that I mentioned back when I posted the Artemis half of the project.
Of course, I’ve made Apollonian gaskets central to the design of this particular set...as well as the sun, because Apollo is a sun god.
This should be the absolute last thing I should probably have finished for today...because ain’t poster design fun?
(Also, I used a mock-up from over here, for full disclosure.)
I’m currently on a Gotham kick--the typeface/font, not the Batman universe city.
Anyway, I doodled this in International Macroeconomics after a bit of thinking on my last self-imposed design challenge, because I wanted to make something that would WORK with the grid layout trend I’ve been seeing...
...this more or less came out as expected. I’m pretty content with it. I’d wager I could use this as a base for some sort of project later on if I got the right photographs and fiddled around with the black space. Or the white space. Doesn’t really matter, I guess!
@freackthejester I’m sure he’d appreciate it, although I might want to do that sparingly.
I just realized that I could have easily made an MS Excel spreadsheet for the economic model I usually construct for quoting design, instead of doing everything by hand with a pen and paper.
It would even automatically calculate annual metro-area inflation discrepancies FOR ME if I structured it like that, so that I can just feed it yearly data without worrying about it.
Doing it all on paper is just punching myself in the face.
...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.
So, I’m working on a new page—lots of hands, I’ve noticed. Also, spending a bunch of time drawing rocks was kinda fun. But yeah, this is a wip.
I’m so glad that I managed to finish this tonight! It’s been something I’ve been wanting to finish for a while now. That said, I’ve learned that my current stamina for drawing without getting hand cramps is somewhere in the ballpark range of about 6 straight hours.
Anyway, enjoy these sad saps.
I’ve decided to force myself to open up Photoshop again by taking a bunch of photos in unrealistic positions and make some glitch art out of it.
Now I should probably do actual work instead of being a dork with my own selfies.
I’m semi-proud of the fact that I did some 3D modeling recently.
I’m still not the best texturer in the world (even though 2D digital painting is something I’m super familiar with), but it’s something!
I’m just happy that I won’t have to do many streetlamps ever again...because I can just use my own model as a reference!
Taking a break on comic making to work on a crime drama novel for NaNoWriMo feels strange, but there’s only so much I can do in a single day, so eh.
I’ll hopefully bang out this novel quickly and then get back to comic making..and I’ll probably make a book design this month as a result.
Greetings and salutations! I'm a graphic designer/illustrator, and this is my Tumblr. Feel free to check my about page for more info about me. Also, I only post my own things here—almost all reblogs will go to @dandyreblogs. Check that out if you're into aesthetics and other curious things.
