To all the male models out there, watch out because theirs a cuter breed of models in town, the cartoon sort! I got an email from a friend asking if I still did tablet stickmen, which I did. He could not get in touch with a good friend of ours (who I hope gets well soon) so I was his second best choice, which was fine by me. Lucky grab, I got to work on an entire photo shoot!

The aim was to replace the male models in the photographs with cute, petite looking stick men. It was a game of fill in the blanks for me, so I filled in the blanks with little stick men! It was fun and tough at the same time, as simple as these stickmen look to draw, they’re not., plus I was rusty and had not been practicing! Check the sample out for an idea of what’s I am talking about.

Photography editing is always fun, it’s always exciting to take an amazing photo and turn it into something creative. A client sent me 20 such high quality professional photos to edit and retouch. Adding effects, from snow, powder, night, light, rain, fire and also digitizing some aspects of the photos, at times turning a face into a hand drawn sketch. Something like this always takes creativity and a lot of attention to detail.

 I added a sample to show you what I have been up to today. The above sample I added a powder/snow effect to as required by the photographer. I then went onto giving the model a pastel like hair style, almost anim like. This photo took me 1 hour to do. A lot of detail went into, not only the model, as in hands and body to give the falling powdery effect but also the set in which she was photographed in.

A Silk Scissor manufacturer wanted a new logo for one of their new multi silk blade products. (oolala) Supposedly it cuts even fine strands of silk, I was told i would get a pair to check out, logo done and no scissors. not like I’d have had a use for them anyway.

This was a challenge, it took me almost 3 hours of random sketching and then about 4 hours to implement. I was on a tight schedule to get this one done but as yu can see, the outcome was a good one. I created the scissor like vector graphic based on a photo they sent me, it’s simply showing the concept of several fine blades used to cut delicate silk.

While designing this logo, I did not want to focus on the logo, as much as the idea behind it. Silk, fine trimmed and precise, for a tool with so many blades, I managed to make it look like a delicate cutting tool.

This Vacation related site was redesigned recently. The layout, as with my trademark style was clean, professional and made it easy to setup a content filled site yet still look organized. 3 days was that time taken to design this site.

After designing this site I had a good friend translate content for me, and realized I had a lot of sections mixed up, took me almost a day to correct it all! Lesson learned! I don’t know why most of my clients these days are polish, or British, it could be my old websites ranking keywords.

Sound Box took several days to complete. The clients only wanted a PSD design and they wanted something robust, for a content filled site. 8 layouts were designed and 2 color schemes created for this theme.

I always enjoy designing music templates although I really don’t know why. Maybe it’s my passion for music that drives me to design music related websites. Who knows!

I’m listening to Enya right now! ya!

Recently I took on a role in an animation project for the site www.dnscammers.com

I was asked to design the [dot] in dnscammers[dot]com and their animation team worked on the animated version of my logo. You can see my logo in their splash page preview here.

The design work took around 4 hours, it works on both dark and light colored backgrounds. It was based off a black marble concept with 2 glass equator like striped running around each ‘pole’.

Not much to say about myself, i’m a Web/Graphic designer based in Slovenia. I’m 22 years old and have been designing for 4 years now. I wont go on and on about myself because this is more a work/design related site/portfolio but I might add personal blog posts from time to time. Hope you enjoy my posts and design work.
