Chaning gears from photoshop:
After the week in Photoshop, I felt did a few more headshots designs as I was in a good workflow with them. Watching a lot of F1 recently -(thank you Tyler)- I did one for the whole Mercedes team.
Then going into the illustrator badge brief, this felt like the perfect jumping off point.

But first: Some sidequests
Makin' it stick
Comission impossible
A comission that from my friends starting up their own business, came at the perfect moment to help me brush up my illustrator skills.
A final outcome
Have you in stitches
Making illustrator my business...
Put a pin in it
Sports-stars illustrated
I took 2 approaches to making the pins Jojo (left), had his linework done almost entirely in procreate, which I then took into illustrator and vectorized using the trace tool, and then coloured. This proved too finnicky at the colour process though, as the program didnt read the lines as lines, but instead as shapes, which made them harder to colour.
Because of this, Fandango (right), was done using a similar method to my lizard business card design (above), where just the sketch was done in procreate, and the rest in illustrator, which proved a lot easier.

From speedy, to even more speedy-ing
The final lineup
The backs of the cards were made almost on accident when I was messing around with the new method I used to make the hatched line backgrounds.
The cutoff method sperated the lines so they would perfectly fit inside a shape, but the leftover lines also looked interesting to me. after a few tweaks I realised they would make a perfect backing texture. Added some text, and Voila!
