^ its me.. logged on friends account

i asked about how to use the mesh tool thingy XD

R a D ! c 4 L, redo the gradient.
Maybe incorporate a "fun" style with more rounded arrows and geometrical shapes.

redo the gradient? u mean the colors? hehe will do it in time, now not so free for this, have assignment to do. Will try your suggestions when i have the time

This is my 1st typography work so bear with me. Full view please.


I made this for my typography assignment for my college. I decieded to use the theme "Messy" as my main theme and thus this piece was born. I hope the visual elements really brings out the messy theme. And this work is a mess! XD

This is the original though, for the print out for my college assignment it would be in A3 size thus some of the details will be gone

And a minor change will be made for the A3 size print out, that is, a chinese word meaning "messy" will be added into it. It doesn't look right in the original that's why i removed it. The word is just for presentation purposes.

The requirements are that only two fonts can be used. And i can't make any shape using the square, circle, pentagon...etc. But I can form them using fonts. So basicly you can only see fonts inside this piece. Even most of the little basic details and the shapes are made out of fonts and typeface.

Fonts used:
3 the Hard Way Rmx by Fenotype
Impact (original windows font)

Fully done in Illustrator 10.

Might change the design a little in time. Cause the dateline is still 1 and a half week away

dirty and nice hehe.

there is a font call "base 02", maybe you can try that font.
I feel that it is better than "3 the Hard Way Rmx"

hey thanks for the comments it was intended to be somewhat dirty XD

and thanks for the font recommendation too! it does look nice o___o since my dateline is still a week away, ill experiment with it then thanks a million!

Try Helvetica Neue LT also if you can use commercial fonts for the assignment.

sure i can use commercial fonts for the assignment, since the lec never mention anything about it hehe, thanks for the recommendation

btw, i tried base 02, it didnt turn out well, i guess i have to start a new one to see its power :

wa.. this thread sink down like titanic
let me revive with my new work!

aiseh... all good vectors arts here...

( kinda reminded me , my abandoned work... )

@jaylim, loves all your vector works dude ! cool and nice, esp on those graphics scenes.

@Rad!c 4l , your tracing is okay. I think your problem is the color toning. Look at the hair part, we know you have problem getting the right tone for each strand of hair to stands out. And the nose outline with the eyes brows should have used the darker tone of the shadow line from the neck/shoulder part.

thx man...thx for wacthing me. alot of cool stuffs gonna out soon. catcha!
