that hoodie is really sick Richard.
I'm working on a Bob Marley poster currently, just for fun kinda thing, taking forever cause its a vector but i'll post it in here as soon as its finished.
Double Barrel and Team Lift ftw.
I'm like Picaso in his Blue Period. I'm in my Helvetica period. I use it on so much of my work. I just can't get enough.Originally Posted by Richard
The main images were sourced from Bleeding Through's album The Truth. They were then cropped out put in with the textured background. I really only needed to make really minor adjustment (curves, lightness) to the images as they were already pretty much good to go.
Rob Bennett: J-Gordon Team Rider
haha NOW I REMEMBER!
i have that album here somewhere haha!
the mouth was on the cover, right?
if a woman is crushed by a tree in the forest...what was the forest doing in the kitchen?
Yup. Keep in mind had I been designing for a legitimate client I obviously wouldn't have used another bands imagery.
Rob Bennett: J-Gordon Team Rider
Duh, we all know that
shit, i messed up that url

i did this today

That's a nice piece rich, but I'm wondering if there is any function to the form? Why the word revolution? Since skimboarding is so new, what exactly needs changing? I don't mean this as a personal attack, but I think the whole "revolution" thing is a bit tired.
thoughts?
I'm so adjective, I verb nouns!
Maybe play with the leading a bit. I think the S and M touching like that needs to be considered a bit. I like the lettering though. Typeface or hand drawn?
Rob Bennett: J-Gordon Team Rider
Cause it's a new concept. even my old boss found the idea and concept interesting and renewing
i wish i could tell more but it's all still in the works for now, and that piece is just a "work in progress, come back when this site is finished"- picture.

richard id defiantly snag one of those hoodies.
by different colors did you mean have the paint be another color or is the red thing part of the theme. anyways it looks sick.
whenever they are available ill take one.
damn infractions
i mean i can make them in almost every color setting,
for example if you want a white brush with white paint on a green hoodie, i can do that too

Hmmm, I may be very interested in one of those hoodies Richard. I just need to get some money.

so do you have to be a sick artist to do alot of this.
honestly i blow ass at drawing, but all this graphic design shit is sooooo sick.
damn infractions
You don't have to be a "sick artist" although it does help. I'm not fantastic at drawing either but I can cheat my way around it with good reference material and a light box. A lot of it comes down to how much you're willing to put into it. If you practice anything enough you'll get good.
Rob Bennett: J-Gordon Team Rider
very true
do you know any good places i could look at for maybe some design tutorials, as well as vectoring.
damn infractions
You wanna make legit vectors you better learn how to use the pen tool.

Day 4: Classy and clean. Stationery set designed for a, get this, gay wedding planner, Groom² (Groom Squared). Letterhead, envelope, and the front and back of a business card (yes, the business card is a unique shape).
Rob Bennett: J-Gordon Team Rider

you should have "crossing swords" as a logo
oh, today is my birthday, and my parents gave me this :

if a woman is crushed by a tree in the forest...what was the forest doing in the kitchen?
Haha, holy shit, I didn't even think to try that. Epic.
Damn, that book looks sick too. I will definitely have to look for that at Pages, that store has a great section of design books.

Day 5: Hannalie Fish is a woman's custom made to measure swimwear company (fictional). Shown is a clothing tag (hang tag), business card (front/back), and an introductory spread from their 2009 mini catalog.
Rob Bennett: J-Gordon Team Rider
hmmm
sorry, you've made stuff that's 10 times better
i made AOP's today, kinda boring to show it off :P
if a woman is crushed by a tree in the forest...what was the forest doing in the kitchen?
xx, dude that is some really nice work.
I hear that, I'm not terrible thrilled on it. Any suggestions for improvement or should I just scrap it?
Rob Bennett: J-Gordon Team Rider
Thanks DT.
Rob Bennett: J-Gordon Team Rider
it's not that it's bad but i think the typo for the logo is kinda "dafont-ish" and by that i mean it's not a graet typeface
the logo of the hibiscus flower is just plain standard... that's my biggest turn-off on the entire design... feels like there's much more to achieve by some good brainstorming
if a woman is crushed by a tree in the forest...what was the forest doing in the kitchen?
The type for the logo is very "dafont-ish" because it came from dafont.
The only reason I went hibiscus is because everyone seemed trapped by the name and were using fish as a logo. I just didn't think the fish gave much to work with and decided on the hibiscus because it's very tropical feeling. Although the cliche of it is something that needs to be tackled.

i particularly like groomsquared (no homo)
