Level Caps is Go!

 

Level Caps, a collaboration between myself an Shannon of "Shan in" fame, is now operational! It's been a long time in the making, from logo work to hat designs to yarn palette selections, but we've done it!

You can peruse our entire selection here, but just as a sample, here are a few of the hats we've already sold!

Tendrils and Doodles

I doodled some non-euclidean monstrosities! Then I quickly live-traced them into vectors! Yay vectors!

Every Expression of Endless Envy

I made a poster in typography! We were given one hour to pick a typeface, come up with a concept, and use freehand marker skills to turn in into a finished poster that displayed five qualities of type anatomy. Naturally my first instinct was to make Pac-man screaming/eating Helvetica Es in a spiral formation.

Naturally.

Threadless to a Good Home

Does that title make any sort of sense?
Remember these loveable designs?

A while back I submitted these two and a sleepy ocelot to the Jinx Minecraft t-shirt contest. While the ocelot has been adopted by the good folks at Jinx, these two are still looking for a good home.

That's where the Threadless Second Minecraft Challenge comes in! For a single, one-time free payment of  a 5 vote, these poor creatures can be given a second chance at a proper, professional production cycle.

Posts or Lack Thereof

So this is what I've been doing in school lately.

Arranging color wheels.

I haven't been posting much because there's not much to see here.

It's a color wheel.

I arranged it.

Go me.

Level Caps

All 40 color variations on a logo I've been making lately. Hand-lettered, designed from scratch. Learned about dithering as a shading method and ever since I've been much happier.

Also, here's a sprite sheet of my design process.

 

Pixel hats yaaaay.
