Most of you don't know this, but I'm a huge fan of artwork that use minimalism designs. They look sleek, neat, and above all, manages to get to the point while using little detail as possible. Some good examples that use this unique style are artwork like this and this .

After seeing enough of them, I've been inspired to take a crack at it, so why not use it on the members of MMGN? The designs I've made so far best represent what I think of the site's members, something like what I did with the mod illustrations. But I wanted to do something different that isn't a caricature. @M@ndyz and @Mik3y have taken the honours of being my first models. I will be making more down the line so keep an eye on this thread whenever it'll pop up.

It helps to know that I will mostly be using people I interact with on a daily basis so if I've seen you around one or two times, I'm afraid I won't be able to make a design out of you. However, that also doesn't mean I can make a design out of you just from interaction as I need something to stand out for that to make it possible.

And yes, I will also be including mods. :)

Collection of all the designs can be found here.

You don't use Photoshop for graphic design, you use Illustrator.

A combination of the two. It's all Illustrator but I then transfer it over to PS to save it in PNG format.

It's not the destination, but the journey you take to get there that matters.

Illustrator uses vectors; vectors = infinitely scalable so it can be any size once you're done :)

Knowing about this now, I won't have to go through the tedious process of zooming in, cropping the pictures and then putting them back together on Paint. :P

I did name the echidna I found in my backyard after you. That's how much of a secret and overly mysterious stalker/lover I happen to be

Latest addition to the collection! There's actually a third but it's somewhat complicated that I haven't finished yet so I'll reveal that one for later. [Shifty]

I am also gonna keep all these under a blog for anyone who wants to look back at some eye candy.

The second one is actually for Matteh but since I liked how I used up most of the canvas, there was no way I would ruin that by placing Matteh's name on it. :P
