So today was the first day of the new project and getting cracking. The weeked I looked at some boards, which you can see below. I was sketching out some ideas when I was on the bus/in class and came up with a concept I like. HELL BOARD

Basically what I want to do is make a "Ride Or Die" theme. Im throwing in some badass skulls, a grim reeper, coffin, stuff like that. Its still in the works so Im sure things will be added in, taken away, etc.etc. Already, my thoughts for the colors I was going to use have changed (from reds and oranges, to purples and greens) and they are probably going to change again.

Thats what Im working on now so Im pretty stoaked about it. Im working on a dummy board, sketching out what I want on paper and then transferring it into photoshop and illustrator. Imma post up my pics of what Im doing to date, but these were the rough sketches to start.


This was something I was doodling on the bus. "Ride Or Die!!" I dont know if this is what Im going to use, but I just wanted to see what it would look like with the font made up of skeleton bones. Obvioulsy its really rough, as I was on the TTC for about 10 minutes but I think the general idea is there.

(Above) This was where the orginal idea came from. I was listening to Andrew talk about clients and procedures and just started doodling. It spun off and turned into this really cool idea (i think anyway, hah). Again, its really rough and the desgin elements are going to change (the look of the skulls) but there are defintly some ideas I want to pull out of this doodle into the deck.
Its kind of hard to make out this pic, as it didnt scan very well into my comptuer but its just me trying to outline where I wanted everything and gave me an idea in terms of spacing, how big things are going to be and just some rough notes. This was also done on the bus and was about 2 minutes to do, but I wanted to get everything down before I forget (memory like a goldfish over here).
