I made a Meseeks Box from Rick and Morty, complete with sound effects! If you’d like to find out how I did it, check out the Instructable I made.
Read MoreHere's a concept: a spa and resort populated (or should I say, pupulated? ...sorry) by adorable canine companions. The ultimate answer to the cat-café. Anyway, here's some toiletries labels I created for fun.
Read More'Tis the season for angry crows here in Metro Vancouver (they're guarding their nests – eggs and now fledglings). Inspired in part by this, and wanting to do an artistic project in Adobe Illustrator, I drew this artwork, "Zoey Crow". Zoey Crow is mad because you're too close to her nest and not readily giving up your food. Silly hoo-man.
It's an attempt to make something complicated with lots of simple shapes (mostly ellipses, triangles, and line segments). Looking at reference photos also made me realize that crows are, in their way, very colourful birds – I've tried to emphasize that here.
Read MoreI make no apologies for my Minecraft puns.
Read MoreWhipped up this image based on a joke in a livestream. If you've played Minecraft in the past two years, you'll get it.
Read MoreI help curate a cephalopod-interest page with some friends on Facebook. I can't take credit for the title, but I did create to logo and the branding.
Read MoreI bought my girlfriend a birthday present. Then I put the present into a box, then I put that box inside of another box... well, it's important to say that in the end I did NOT smash it with a hammer. However, I did use Adobe Illustrator's LiveTrace ability to turn some iconic images from The Emperor's New Groove into thematically-appropriate wrapping paper. An Illustrator-compatible PDF is linked here, for your vector-printing pleasure.
Read MoreMany years ago, as a music composition student at UBC, I took the electro-acoustic music course. Our mid-term project required us to record environmental noises and manipulate them to create a composition. A longtime Metro-Vancouverite, I've always liked the sounds the Skytrain made, so I recorded some of them. This was made many years ago using C-Sound.
Read MoreI didn't design this, of course. But variants of this logo, and the other departments of Starfleet, have been floating around for a while. A few people have made high-res versions in Illustrator, but no one has made the vector art available for download. So, here's mine, in PDF format.
Read MoreI used an old RaQ Cobalt server case, a LaCie SATA-to-ThunderBolt hub, an Adafruit LCD, and lots of ingenuity to create a custom drive enclosure and jukebox that I continue to use to this day. The project got a lot of positive feedback and made it onto the main pages of both Hack-a-Day and Instructables (where the project is detailed).
