So, This Is The Result Of My About 3-4 Hours Of Work Trying To Draw The Gen 1 Starter Pokemon.

I know I worked on these a long time ago, but the righthand warlock actually is my gaming icon. (I go by WistfulWarlock in some gaming contexts.)

Anyway, I still like these, even now, and I figured that I should upload them. Seems appropriate during Halloween season.

BTW, they’re transparent. :D

Dammit, I'm on this blue hell site again

Current lessons in DuoLingo land; being specific about translating 写真 as “photo” as opposed to “picture” because it’s already a pet peeve of yours to call photographs “pictures” in ENGLISH, and that’s technically what’s going on here already…is apparently a penalty in Japanese.

Also, taking a more literal translation with 良い is also a penalty.

(I’m concerned about this happening with Mandarin soon, too, even if I’ve yet to encounter that at this time.)

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.)

My previous Web design is actually alive now. I'm pretty happy about that. #webdesign #uxdesign #AdobeMuse #officespace #stapler

This is the culmination of a six week class on 3D modeling that’s required for me to officially grab one of my two degrees.

I’m also pretty happy that I thought of a game idea where you’d need light to survive—to the point where you’d just keel over if you weren’t near any light at all. So, I asked if I was allowed to make a HUB for it too, and it was OK’d...so, I did.

The Instagram version of this is so much better, btw. Here is this thing in its non-pixelated glory.

Guess who updated his own logo to be a bit sleeker. This guy. Guess who's about to put his own portfolio site back up online? This guy. Guess who's going to try to get back into design while we goes back to school for a Statistics degree. This guy. . . . . . #logo #logodesign #redesign #dandyrebel #vector #lettering #wordmark #graphicdesign #design https://www.instagram.com/p/B1aQV6yDhal/?igshid=1xl28l1w76jzj

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

Forgive me, but I’m slipping into my old habit of listening to a bunch of hard rock, emo music, etc—and just rolling along with it for the sake of design. Any maybe to test some AfterEffects skills, if I can get my main computer to cooperate with me. (And I’m worried I can’t.)

Anyway, I’ll admit that one of the handful of genres I listened to A LOT growing up was hard rock...and there are times where I’ll sporadically recall lyrics from various songs, and go “Huh. Why can I remember THAT off of the top of my head?” Sometimes it’ll be relatable, and sometimes not.

Anyway, have some Three Days Grace related typography. Go listen to the song. Go enjoy yourself. Resist any urges to go scream at exes. Resist any urges to go punch your exes. Forget about the blood on your hands. Rinse your hands and repeat.
