The Visual History of Type by Paul McNeil My rating: 4 of 5 stars Ok, good book full of a lot of info about different type/fonts. Good examples, but if you have no interest in type of any kind you might find it a bit dry. I didn't but I'm studying Graphic Design, so its useful to read lol View all my reviews   Leviathan Wakes by James S.A. Corey My rating: 4 of 5 stars (older review, since this is a re-read and I still really enjoyed it) Really enjoyed reading this book :) Parts were funny, theres a bit of a mystery involved, some parts were exciting to read and there was a bit of horror thrown in as well. The main characters are what really makes this book. You do start caring what happens to them, and want them to survive to appear in the next book. Def. a must read for fans of space operas and 561 pages seems like it could be a lot to read, but I didn't find that things dragged on. View all my reviews ...

Djcad has the banners up for this years degree show, don't mind the colours. Very bright and spring like. My page on the uni site for the show so you can read my ramblings lol And this is my space to hang work for the degree show. Well, half of it. Spent the morning trying to figure out layouts for things, made me realize I need to get a few things printed A2 size because its actually a lot bigger space then I thought lol I did find 10 spare minutes to work on my dino head. I added some spikes on the neck frill and thats about it lol Needs more spikes and some teeth since he looks like he has lost them in a bar fight.

Needed business cards, so designed some really simple ones. Simple can work sometimes more than really busy cards. This is the front. And this is the back and of course it needed a dragon :)

I promise not to post any more of this project lol I just really like how in these rendered versions you can see the junk floating under the surface of the water, which is where a lot of the stuff is. I still have to make scene mockups with these version and then a motion graphic piece. Plenty of time....(not really lol)

So I stuck the 3D models from the previous post into photos to get a rough idea of what they might look like. Still needs work but you get the general idea of how the statues could look like. The top one is probably too grey and the bottom one too light lol, need to fix that.

One of my projects for uni was dealing with the problem of plastic in the oceans. So these are the models for the installation part of the project. The plan is to get them printed, but if I can't I will just make turntables for them so you can see on video all around the models. There should also be a graphics motion piece to go with it, but I'm still working on that so hopefully I get it done in time. I've got almost 3 weeks until its due lol (plus putting the stuff up for degree show, designing new business cards, making sure sketchbooks are done, getting things printed for degree show....)
