Emojis

 

Here are a few emojis drawn by me in Affinity Designer, so they are all 100% vector. I did not want to make flat images without gradient colours and tried to mimic human facial expressions, of course exaggerating them somewhat. Exaggeration - imagining the extreme aspect of things - often helps to see the possible consequence of seemingly innocent thoughts, developments and policies. The one at the top is a T-shirt design, the rest below it are just plain emojis. In the captions below each emoji are links to alternative versions of the emojis shown here; you might want to take a peek.... 😄

Rasta monkey cartoon

 

A short blog entry this time. I drew a vector rasta monkey cartoon in Affinity Designer, that I intend to use as a T-shirt design. Below the rendered image you see the vector wireframe view of it, which is quite simple and  hints at the fact that giving strokes and curves different properties and effects, is what really defines the appearance of an image. It also implies that these properties and effects can quickly be changed at a later stage. Click on the images to see larger versions of them in Google's Lightbox.
