My Designs

[Holsterbau]

I really like design of all sorts - document design most of all, but recently I just started making quick things in Adobe Illustrator, because I really enjoy vector graphics more than drawing. Not really that good at drawing, but I believe that I am fairly competent with vector graphics. So, a big disclaimer, I don't claim myself to be really great as I don't bother to spend more than two hours or so on most of the things that I have. You can find my stuff on http://holsterbau.tumblr.com/.

I hope you like my stuff.

really really interesting work, you obviously have a good understanding of how to use shape and color, considering some of the images are vaguely abstract but i can still easily tell what they are

very nice to look at, the 40k stuff made me smile as well haha

I like the poster design, it works really well. It's ok to post the images themselves in the thread if you'd like.

I'm not sure how to open those documents though...

Thank you. Colour theory is extremely important for me and I am glad that it shows that I am good enough with them.

Thanks.
As for the documents, you should be able to view them just by clicking the link, which redirects you to my Google Drive. Don't know why it shouldn't work, though.

Oh, now they work. Weird.

I like the one with the space ships. I'm guessing you work in graphic design?

[Holsterbau]

Yeah, well, at high school we do a lot of stuff, including graphic design - although the general theme is media and communications. I don't aspire to be a graphic designer, but work in the business field instead.

booooooo all of them suck

didnt you forget the stuff you drew as a token for me O:

[Holsterbau]

Oh, right, that deserves a mention.

[ZekeySpaceyLizard]

as long as im logged in i will reiterate how much i like these

[Holsterbau]

Thank you, thank you, that means a lot to me!

[Holsterbau]

Also, I might as well just post my other things in this thread from my tumblr.

i like the minimalist design stuff, especially the first three

[Holsterbau]

I've been meaning to do is from quite some time but never got about doing it until now. A man with a strong jaw.

I really dig that style. It brings out the color combinations in a cool way.

[naturally]

something tells me from chinkistan with love just might be the next firefly

which means i'm never going to get to see how it ends

awesome stuff, pizza point for you

>strong jaw
I hate you
Otherwise, very solid, Your work so far has always been very good at delivering a lot of clear, easy to understand symbols. Do you think you'll dive into more complex stuff soon? You seem to have a foundation for it.

[Holsterbau]

Define "more complex."

[SrsSam77]

Non-minamalist, perhaps digital painting and design? Not that your current work doesn't take skill or effort

[Holsterbau]

I already do design, and I highly despise painting and drawing (doing it myself, that is) to any degree.
