There’s so much to do before I graduate I’m going crazy. It’s about that time I stop sleeping, drink coffee and red bull and pull all-nighters so I can get stuff done. Here’s just one of those things; an illustration I’ll be using for my portfolio. Well part of it. I’ll reveal the whole thing once I’m finished :)

I haven’t been posting lately because I’ve been so busy with work and getting ready for graduation in June XD So here’s a little something I did for work.

WE’VE GOT STICKERS!!!!

So I’m starting to work on some promotional material for my upcoming book Cute and Creepy Characters which I’ll be selling in my shop when I make more things to put up. I’ll have stickers, magnets, notepads and other fun goodies! First up: STICKERS!

(back sample)

Stickers I cut out with my own bare hands!!! As you can see I’ve revised the packaging quite a bit and I am definitely more happy with this version. The other two say “Bag of Nitro” (Nitro Girl) and “Bag of Monsters” (Monster Plant) with their own introduction and story. These are all I have for now because of time restrictions :( but I’ll definitely make a lot more to sell. When I make my next batch I’ll make sure to take pictures of the stickers out of the bag before I seal them heh… oops.

EDIT: I forgot to add, each bag has 5-6 glossy stickers :>

I meant to post this when I finished it last month but I forgot. When vacation starts, absent-mindedness sets in. This was a self portrait project from last quarter. I was horrified we had to use our own photos in this project but then remembered Crissey’s tutorial and it saved my life… well it saved my final heh. Thanks Crissey! You’re awesome :D And since the project required to show how you differ from other designers I thought it would be fitting to include a few of my characters.
Oooh spot the happie robots!
