Kyuubi

Monday has passed, another wallpaper challenge. This week, Mae was our challenger. I really liked her topic, and I love the outcome of my wallpaper, but I don’t think my concept will suit her taste though. Her topic was:

With a smile…

My concept was to create an evil smile. I didn’t have much time, so I vectored an animal’s face that is already sinister looking on its own – a fox. After I finished creating the wallpaper, I realized it looks like Naruto’s Kyuubi. Created in just about 30 minutes I didn’t place any effects on this one, for I was going for a simplistic wallpaper. Let’s just say, I’m tired of my messy wallpapers all this time.

Seriously lame title, huh? Ma’am Gigi – my favorite teacher, asked me to create a wallpaper/background for her master’s thesis. She wanted the background to be vectored, abstract themed and contain the logo of our school (my alma mater). It was assigned to me a long time ago, but I was at a loss of ideas since I was restraint by the “formality” of the subject. I was just able to create it just now, because she needs it today. That is so like me, doing the job since it’s already needed. I know its bad, and I need to change that habit somehow.

While creating this wallpaper, it accidentally had a center point without me realizing it. It’s quite astonishing that this image can be actually related to me, and my experiences during my stay on that school. The colors of sadness and happiness, the ups and downs, how they mix together perfectly and evenly to leave an unforgettable stage in my life.

Here’s what I’ve got. Hope you’ll like it. Created with Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.

Tech Team

A Wallpaper Challenge Day, with the challenger for this week – Neri gave  us quite a challenging topic indeed:

Tech. Team

This means the team Neri (she’s a programmer) and I belong to at my workplace. The Tech Team is composed by programmers, web designers, a system administrator and project managers.

Coming up with a concept was hard due to factors like having few pictures, too many people on our team, and too little time. Cropping image of us one by one would be really painstaking, while the outcome might suck since collages aren’t really that great specially with too many people. So, I’ve come up to my last resort, abstract art. This is the first time I’ve tried this effect so it must really look that bad, so bear with it.
