More recent drawings and stuff.

NearHi · 08-04-2014, 03:53 PM

"Locomotive-Tiger." My personal trainer wanted this one done in exchange for some sessions.

Just a random drawing.

Caricature of one of my graphic design instructor who would say he was a god. He was awful.

Drawing I did a while ago and finally colored.

Napkin Doodle.

Started drawing to put off doing the to-do list I just wrote down.

I was getting mad at my math work.

Vector Rocket I'm pretty proud of.

Mackelmore inspired dude.

Made this using just Illustrator and Photoshop. Lot's of smart objects.

My final project. The theme was "What makes you Unbridled?"

Logo I made for a friend who makes custom purses and handbags.

i like the more crazier drawings that you do the most, stuff like the graphic design god, napkin doodle, and the macklemore inspired drawing, i think that is one of your strongest styles IMO

NearHi · 08-04-2014, 07:02 PM

I would agree. Thanks. Those only come along so often. I find that I'm not inspired to draw those all the time, ya know? I have to be in a mood.

Phil Williamson · 08-04-2014, 09:12 PM

your personal trainer wanted to be paid in a drawing of a half-train, half-tiger? is it like...a sex thing?

NearHi · 08-05-2014, 12:50 AM

Naw. He wanted a theme of something like.. a samurai and he wanted to portray the speed and power of a locomotive and the agility of a tiger.
This drawing isn't what he wanted, ultimately. He actually wanted a train and a tiger running into each other and turning towards the viewer to become one. It was a strange description. I like the one I've posted more.

Bown · 08-05-2014, 07:02 AM

what he said sounds more like an animation

Phil Williamson · 08-05-2014, 08:11 AM

that sounds mad gay

Bown · 08-05-2014, 08:37 AM

yeah also that.

some of these are really good, dude! I like the rocket and the unbridled project.

I asked him this. He wanted it as a "logo." He was going to use it for a sweater and T-shirt. He just, somehow, wanted a train off to the left and a tiger off to the right, and they would be turning at the neck to become one.

Thanks! The Unbridled project was put into a gallery with the rest of my classmate's projects. There was an art teacher there from, I think, NYU, and she said that she liked mine the most because she felt I was the only one that really understood the question, "What makes you Unbridled?" That was a nice ego boost.

Rabid Dinosaur · 08-06-2014, 03:45 AM

I like the rocket and the Macklemore guy

OmniromX · 08-06-2014, 08:20 AM

I like your funky style. Drawing shows your soul. So you have a funky spirit.

Slime · 08-06-2014, 08:01 PM

cool drawings! hahah @ the train/tiger description

Evil Ash · 08-07-2014, 04:57 PM

I get it. The train and tiger are both turning to the viewer, so the faces are merged as you have but their bodies are coming off in different direction.

It's be ugly, but I get it.

I like your final project - good clean lines and shit.
I find your work is sometimes too sketchy for me, but your vector shit is nice.

Yamles · 08-09-2014, 08:27 AM

That rocket is awesome!

NearHi · 09-23-2014, 05:48 PM

So this logo is actually being used. I finally got one of the products with the logo in use.

The company sells custom bags and stuff.

The logo on the tag.

And on the inside flap.

First logo being used on actual product. Me happy.

Bown · 09-23-2014, 06:53 PM

Looks a lot better without the gradients and shit

NearHi · 09-23-2014, 08:11 PM

You mean the background? I just did that so I didn't have the logo on just a boring white background. The wings on the tags are still gradients.

OmniromX · 09-23-2014, 09:05 PM

What is it meant to say? I assumed "Pixie Movie", so I am confused why it's on a messenger bag. It's a nice logo though.

Bown · 09-23-2014, 09:16 PM

Pixie Moxie I think

OmniromX · 09-24-2014, 01:06 AM

I didn't know moxie is a word.

NearHi · 09-24-2014, 03:18 AM

Yup. Pixie Moxie. Moxie means: the ability to be active, courage or determination.

Fish Taco · 10-04-2014, 02:35 AM

Those are some ugly ass bags

Anthropophagus · 10-04-2014, 03:20 PM

Looks like shit I was scribbling on notebooks back in high skewl.
