I'm back baybeh.

It's been a long while since I posted. Well, hopefully that nonsense is over with. I've been designing like hell lately. Some stuff I can't share yet, but some I can. The stuff that follows is in the latter category.

Recently I was re-acquainted with Adobe Illustrator, a program which used to frustrate me to no end which now...well, still frustrates me to no end. But I am beginning to remember what vector graphics are good for and with the practice I've been putting in lately, I am beginning to enjoy it again.

These are all assets from a chat-based game that is now open set in the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic universe (partially) called New Worlds.










Those signs are the first run of ones that actually go in the chat to identify which room you're in. I thought it was a bit snazzier than plain text and apparently the coder agreed with me. Considering they were something of a learning project -as is everything with Illustrator right now- I think they came out well...I will say this. Masking in this program SUCKS. Maybe I use it too much in Photoshop...

I have more, and I'll add them later. Trying to get back in the habit of updating.

For those of you interested in the projects I -can't- show you, I designed three new corporate logos and branding in some cases. I have to get approval to display those here.
