Illustrator – Sunflowers

I started learning the program Illustrator.  I like its simplicity, It is a great set of tools to make cartoon like images.

3d in Photoshop – The Great Escape

This little guy was done using photoshop’s 3d models in class.  I had alot of fun doing this.  The buildings are cubes, the ground is a cylinder the background and the searchlight and shadow are the only 2d images in the project.  I didn’t quite finish the chasing sphere men, but you can see the progress I am making on them.

Casino poster

This is our final assignment in our Digital Design class.  The assignment was to create a Poster for a band playing at a casino and it required the use of –

–  The Casino logo which i put on top of all the coins in the background

–  The inclusion of all the information shown

–  The Players Card and discount info

–  Creating and including a logo for “The Alley Cats”

We were given many cat images and casino images to work with.  My family helped me decide the layout of it all once I had the key components designed.  I’m very happy with the result.

Logo’s

These two images were my attempts at making company logos.

The top image is for an home insurance company with the initials A & O

The second image is for Kickstart Coffee, which is pretty obvious.  The goal with this one was to make it simple and elegant.

There was a third logo I did for a water equipment rental company but I just didn’t like anything I came up with in class.

Mellisa – A character

This is a character drawing I did of my girlfriend Mellisa.  I used a picture from her Instagram.  I’m really proud of it, I could keep tweaking it but I decided to call it and move on to other projects.

Thanks to Sean and Cody for their opinions on the details.

And a very special thanks to Mellisa 🙂
