I AM A FOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but now we are here. If I haven’t said it before I adore ur lore vids
👋🏻hello!!
I’m quietly putting together a collection of original illustrations in a zine for a local comics fest… it’s not strictly a linear storytelling piece but I think it’s got the spirit
I think it’s worth it for every illustrator to learn some basic graphic design rules/methodologies. my work has only gotten gotten better when applying guardrails to it. Every time I struggle with something it’s because I haven’t given myself artistic parameters. Not every piece has to be everything
Same thing applies to more illustrative things too — for ducky it was always solid colour, immersive backgrounds, same character. The art changed & developed over time but some design rules always stayed the same!
Basically the art should be able to double as cool tattoos. That also leaves us room to do something different for EPs & Album cover art that follows similar guidelines but in a format that clearly delineates them from singles (emphasizing one piece of art except with line weights this time!)
the first sketches & process shots of this one. The biggest composition change was to make it read less as mourning & decay, and make it more about hope/sacrifice/making deals with gods (insert running up that hill joke here) (but actually)
i cannot even lie that goes hard
HUGE fan of repeating number release dates
