I Changed My Mind...

I discarded the rough design in the post before. I don't know, the new concept I like way better than the previous one. The previous one was kind of... boring? The new one deploys a nice sort of battle or wrangle. That is, I guess, what I was looking for actually. Anyway, the finished piece will follow in a bit...

By the by, what is your favorite memory? (via Colossal)

By the by (2), an often asked question is what does your work place look like? Well, at this very moment I'm working at our kitchen table. There is not much of a reason for that. I'm just enjoying the feeling or vibe of not going to the office today...

  8. Neat. I do agree this one is much more dynamic than the other one (though the old one was cool, too). How long does it usually take you to come up and draw out these concepts?

  9. Anonymous, thanks a bunch for the compliments!! Wow! And right, the blog turns 5 this December. I guess I should do a little giveaway party here. Some Motorbirds T-shirts maybe...

    Andy, thanks! A concept like this, at this rough stage, takes me about 20 minutes or so. It depends on the details etc.

  10. By the way (2) is always great working on the kitchen table, my office is quite near, just the room beside my kitchen, but working on the same table I to eat with my family has another feeling.
