Custom Vehicle

This is the Imperial Death Ship, Bringer of DOOM.  I used several different space ships in my design, with the Imperial Star Destroyer as the base for it.  The X-Wing turrets had to be re-masked so many times it isn't even funny.

My five original images are not retrievable, unfortunately they were lost when I transferred computers.  However, I used something like these.  The actual turret on top was on a tank but I could not find the same tank again.

For the New Background I touched up the masking and color and took time to find a background that had the correct lighting.

For my screen, the response time could definitely be better.  If I were to move my cursor across the screen I would see a faint "ghost" of where it was.

Magazine Cover

Alright it's late, I know, but at least it looks good.  I didn't go crazy on things from the article, but I did make sure to use some things.  I think the one that had the biggest impact was typography.  I downloaded a specific font to make sure that it actually looked right, and I had had one in mind since the beginning.  I also had a plan beforehand.

If you're wondering what the magazine cover is about, it's about a trading card game called Magic: the Gathering.

Branding your team

          For regular credit, (1) I wanted to combine a few different things in order to make this logo.  I used the coins in order to show that we were lucky.  I wish I had the ability to make more natural curves because I would have made my own clover for the card, which I transformed from an Ace of Spades to a thirteen card with a clover on it.

          For Senior Designer, (2) all I really did was delete the color layers and all my shapes and symbols became outlines. 

          For Creative Director (3) I just wanted to make something simple. I wanted to make it so that it would be easy to tell what it was even shrunk for a web browser icon.

          You can only use the ideas of others legally if you change them in some way and add in your own new material.  You can't reuse totally the same thing if you don't change it.  If I took the Pepsi logo and popped it onto my project that would be illegal because I wouldn't have changed anything.

          My design went through a few changes before it came out as it did, and I like how it turned out.
