WIP - Possible new portfolio

By Chason | Wednesday, October 20, 2004 at 3:29pm

well amongst the 20 some odd practice designs i did this week this one really struck me.

its a grunged style alot of cleaning to run through but i like the look of it.

i wasnt sure about how its going to run fully but flash will be used for sure in the header and the nav as an absolute.

character is rather old so i might make a new one soon

hey, thats some nice work you got! Update the character a bit and i think you might have something here. Also you said you had 20 designs..Well post them up so we can see!

Your strength is definitely in the design elements.

If I can add one little piece of commentary....generally the thin/bold font contrast bit you did up top, is a two-word setup..........like testingonetwothree ...If you have three it's generally preferable to string it all together.........so rather than

I AM ALLSTAR

go for

IAMALLSTAR

With such a strong phrase (sentence, actually) there will be no confusion in reading the first two words separately even though they're joined (ie no one going "ee-um?") and it'd look a lot more slick and professional....

Much coolness. Looks a lot cleaner and more refined. Nothing against your character drawing's stylings, but it could be absolutely perfect and still ruin a design because everything around him is some other "look." I like what you have going here. Everything seems related, unified.
