Today, I'd like to post again something about how strongly my design work is shaped not only by art references but by all kinds of non-art things. Their colours, forms, textures, complexions etc. are essential parts of my initial design process. I get those inspirations or "inital sparks" from certain places on the internet, like from Jason Kottke's weblog or the Amunt log, two of my favorite sites I explore nearly every day. This very Motorbirds jet design here below is the fruit of one of those explorations and displays excellently how the inspirations determine the final design:

ReplyDeleteHi Florian. i like the way how you use a picture as color reference.
ReplyDeleteAh, and just to let you know. The follow button of your blog is covered with the ventilator duck-melting gun, so it's not clickable. Your followers need to add your site manually. Cheers!
As always, incredibly impressive! I absolutely love your style
ReplyDeleteJason, cheers man! Sorry for the late reply, I did the whole process in Photoshop.
ReplyDeleteUral, thanks! And double thanks for the hint about the follow button! :)
