Really cool jonny cash. I applaud your patience with the “spaghetti” shapes. I’m assuming that took ages [unless you know a sneaky shortcut].
5 indeed.

only one wish Aug 18th 2011, 07:34 peeps

Ahoy SugarTwizz,
I wish for hassle-free teleportation to exist before i die.
It’s rad that you want to be a graphic designer. That’s what i do and i must say it beats crunching numbers. However crunching numbers will net you a lot more money. Anyway it’s still a cool career so if you’re keen, do it.
Don’t mess around in college, your portfolio is what will get you a job. The better your portfolio, the better your job. If you want to mess around, take a gap year and only study when you’re ready to do it properly.
Research GD courses, don’t just do 1 because…
Do as much freelance work as possible during college. The sooner you start dealing with real clients, the better. Plus it’s also a great way of making some cash.
That’s all i can think of for now, i hope it’s at least a little bit helpful.

Good point Dunc – thanks.
This really is just a space filler, I’m not expecting anything from it.

Nice work Craig! That used to be my Dad’s favourite saying and my brothers worst. Champion execution and your final colour selection is superb.
Reminds me of Chopper Harley.

I used to have 1 of those things. It was called a “swing-a-majig”.
I like it but I’m not a fan of the yellow shirt.

Forgive me if i’m pointing out the obvious here but the “W” in down is in fact an “M”.
If it’s supposed to be an upside down “W” then perhaps the entire work down could have been upside down?

sorry that should have read “the entire word down could have been upside down?”

By trying to think of what else SL could =, i’ve stumbled across an idea for a shirt design. Thanks Eric. Now all i need is some dang time to draw it.
Thanks for the crits & comments, they’re really helpful.

Thanks again, your commentary has been duly noted. What’s the PlayR arcade? A resub is a swell plan but i’m going to have to feed it some vitamin S before doing so.

In the mean time…

Awesome illustration & very well honed photoshop skills!
I love your characters monobrow and lack of arms, not to mention it’s snake tongue.
