The Liontree book - part 2

The first step was to print the ilustration

then cut some thin wood for the cover

stick the illustration and copy it to the wood

After the drawing was copied I traced it the a pyrograph

Then a bit of wood stain so the outer part is darker and the middle illustration pops out

Done! Next time... assembling the text block!

The Liontree book - part 1

A friend asked me for a book design and said it needed to have “a tree and a lion“. After collecting a lot of pic of lions and trees i came up with this illustration

I then added some extra elements to complete the cover

and finally put some textures to see how it would look in the real world..

Next time... starting the build!

X-Files, I want to believe poster

I was re-watching the x-files, which was a huge part of my youth so I obviously wanted a "I want to believe" poster for my workshop but I couldn´t find a good hi-res file, besides there are quite a few versions floating around. I the end, i chose this scene as reference:

And I made mine with a mixture of images from all over the internet.

You can download the image from dropbox HERE, or by clicking the image below:
