Marian University's New Uniforms

At the Beginning of this season, My old football team, The Marian University Knights, debuted a new uniform. A navy jersey, and gold pants, with a matte grey helmet, they weren't terrible, but they had no personality of their own, and just seemed like something thrown together on the nike uniform builder. I had my own idea on what they should look like, and did a complete redesign over thanksgiving weekend.

The grey helmets were the biggest departure from Marian's original set, and they weren't working for me. I went with a clean and distinctive white helmet. gave the jersey its own unique look, and changed the pants back to blue and added striping that matched the jerseys. with a result that I believe is more cohesive, and fitting for a team that only a year ago won a football national championship.

New Phoenix Suns Logo

Been a long time since the last post. I was bored last night and wanted to work on something sports related.

I worked up a few different options of a phoenix suns logo, taking cues from old and new logos as well as some i saw on the internet.

Packaging design

I started working on a new design. a red absinthe drink called devils tail. modeled and rendered in 3d max, designed in illustrator. I still need to fix a few things and render it out at a higher resolution and then it will be ready to go up on my portfolio.

A new brochure design

I just finished redesigning an old project from college. A brochure design for vh1's save the music foundation.

What time is it?

Ive decided to get back into 3d stuff lately. Right now im working on finn from adventure time. aiming for a semi realistic style, trying to have him fit into a game like soul calibur or zelda. His current design is somewhat influenced by link. so far i like where this is heading.

Portal Poster

Starting working on a poster design for a favorite game of mine, Portal.

Redesign - Part 1

There are some(a.k.a Most) days when in between job searching, I like to design fresh new work for my portfolio. Other days I go back and look at my older works and decide, hey I can do that particular project better. today was one of those days. Im beginning a new calendar series for the 2012 year, to replace the one on my website. like they say out with the old and in with the new.

So far I have five designs that are further than the rest and what I would call near final.

Identity part 2.

Here's a mockup i made for sharpe sports featuring the letterhead, business card, and business envelope.

A Business Identity.

Starting work on some business identity and logo design. seeing as my portfolio is lacking in that area. This first set is for a sports equipment and apparel manufacturer, like Under Armour or Nike. The business' name I came up with is Sharpe Sports.

The logo.

An alternate color scheme for the logo.


A Business Card.


A letterhead.


and lastly, the color scheme.

Legend of Zelda movie poster

If ever there was a video game that I wish would be made into a movie, it is The Legend of Zelda. Here's a design in progress for a movie poster for The legend of Zelda, I'm thinking about doing multiple designs with this one. Could be fun!

8 bits

Designed this for a friend who loves 8 bit video games. Wanted me to design a poster for him.

more fun with 3d!

starting another design, ive decided to do a series using various 3d shapes and experimenting with render settings for the designs. Here's the beginnings of a second one. similar setup to the original, but using a cloth sim and faceted material.

Inside my latest design.

just thought I'd show off a bit of what went into my latest design. you may notice I tagged it with a 3d studio max label. I actually created the crystal background in 3dmax using using a super spray emitter in max, with cubes as particles, some fiddlan in the mat editor and a very wide angle on a standard max camera, Scanline renderer. and the result was what you see in my first post titled "something".

Something, again.

Once again changed direction with this design. Calling it near final.

Something...

Been a while since i did any design work, been busy with the summer job and what have you. here's something I started today.

Old school.

Here's something I found while looking through an old flash drive. I played football in college, and my coach asked me to design our 2009 Homecoming t-shirt, and you don't say no to your coach.
Both the front and back of the shirt were done entirely in illustrator.

The Front.


And the Back.

Some Personal Promotion

Updating my personal business cards. I like having multiple variations, probably gonna cost extra for that. haha

Wallpaper

Working on a wallpaper for my desktop; I started about an hour ago. Here is a small section of it so far. it will be 1600x900 when done.

a new design appears...

I always thought movie tickets were a little boring... I intend to fix this, stat!

Thirst-aid near final

I'm rapidly approaching completion of this brochure. a few tweaks here and there and I'm calling it done. afterward ill make a mock-up which will show exactly what it would look like folded and whatnot. Something fresh soon!

The front, I wonder if anyone besides me reads what these say, haha.



The back
