Re: New Work

James,

Your updated site looks terrific (as everything you do does).

I recently updated my website as well to get rid of the flash galleries, since many (all??) tablets won't allow flash, so I know how much work website updates take.

Re: New Work

I saw a brochure a while back when looking for easy-close gas cylinders and came a cross a brochure with a nice looking cutaway. I decided I would try and mimic it with TurboCAD. The cutaway cylinder in my post was created and rendered in TurboCAD. I created the background and added the text in Phot...

Re: Client wants a "sketch" first before proceeding

Personally, I charge for the time to do mock ups, especially if it is a design from scratch that hasn't been fully defined. A mock up, or early version, is really where most designs begin, in my opinion, and should be compensated for. If it were something similar to what I have done in the past I wo...

Re: New Work

It is rare, if ever, these days to be able to post an updated version of my portfolio. Since the majority of my work falls under strict non-disclosure agreements and other federal and governmental laws, it is nice to have the occasional freelance job to add work to my illustration portfolio. Please...

Re: Adobe Creative Cloud

I think Adobe has thought really hard about this, and rethought it again. In the end, they probably will end up making more money now. Instead of a one-shot payment to buy the software, or pay for an upgrade, you now have a monthly "rent" payment to make. That amounts to them making alot of money, ...

Re: New Work

I did up this mock ad for fun while experimenting with TurboCAD and Photoshop to create an illustration-like render. I was pleased with the results. I hope that you like it. Although I could have created the 3D model quite easily I took the easy way out and downloaded it from McMaster-Carr. I did ad...

Re: Introductions

Howdy, I have been visiting the site for a while and thought I would join the forum and introduce myself. I graduated from the North Carolina State University College of Design in 2011 with a degree in graphic design and have been working as a designer since then. I'm completely fascinated by the w...

Re: New Work

Wow, great work everyone. I really need to start learning 3d. I keep putting it off but I think it's about time. Here's my latest work for the American Association of Osteopathic Surgeons. Ads that will be in a few political mags and in a couple airport dioramas I believe. I love doing work like th...
