>>454005not sure how well it'd work but couldn't you use layered shattered glass/crumpled paper textures of differing opacity? it looks like it's just a bunch of random geometric shapes layered to look more complicated than they really are.
>>453964this is my absolute favorite cover from them, wishing they could pull something like this again
>>448899Thats bullshit! look at this artpiece i found, believe it or not this is from 2019, at first glance this looks like something out of the early 2000s, so its absolutely possible to replicate it but you have a good point even if its not 100% accurate to the aesthetics of the 2000s it would be 100 times better as long as corporate memphis fucking dies

a fine art album for print?A painter asked me to design a book containing approx 120 paintings.Their sizes and ratios are quite haphazard, and some of them are good enough to take up a 2-page spread alone, while others are kind of rough and should be small in the book.Please share your experience and tips on this kind of project.
This really, really, really depends on the theme.Work backwards for any big project; what is the desired END result?Is it to make people feel good, arouse them, give them ideas, fascinate, depress them... or is it just a case of "This is my art hurrr!" which should probably be framed as a personal journey, character exploration, or a social bridge to make the artist new friends and connections?Lay out accordingly. Easier said than done though.Make it more of a story type book if it's a collection that'll allow it. If not, weave the art pieces together using colours, sizes, shapes, places, objects to induce the desired effects in the end viewer. Classic childrens pictoral books can be good at doing this kind of thing if you need some ideas.
>>454170Thank you for the wonderful reply.
>>454191i think its meager advicethis is not a 'what the reader feels' jobits a 'present the artist properly' jobid get some art books you like, have a talk with the artist. or look at a lot of art books, look at the artists work and have a vision of how to present it and make some sample pages for them to fall in love with.do you know a lot about art or design?
>>454194I'll come back in a little bit with some more details about how I've been putting this book together, maybe some pages in progress, and some specific questions about the process.Actually I've so far done pretty much every thing you've suggested (orienting towards the reader's experience, creating a thematic journey, studying various similar/related albums), which is encouraging.I have some background in art myself, but this is my first time doing a project like this.It's great to be able to discuss this with you!
Hi, Ive been into graphic design for a while, and I really feel like I wanna start doing my own thing instead of just admiring others pieces, where do I start? What book is best to read for the fundamentals? How should I actually build my own style? Anything helps, maybe its not the best place to ask idk, but I feel like some of you guys got a good grip of whats good and not. :)(piece by Visual bleed)
>>453732sticky
>>453732besides learning fundamentals, reading books and so on (which is incredibly important), the best way to start doing your own thing is...by starting to actually do something. it doesn't matter what, and your first pieces are most likely going to look like shit, but just like any other skill on this planet, the more you do it, the better you'll get at itgood luck!
>>453764Are there any resources on the fundamentals which you can recommend?
I don't know if this goes here but idk, roast me gentle, i am new in this
>>453164If you hadn't told me what it was supposed to say, I would have no clue what it was saying. Take this idea completely back to the drawing board. I think utilizing Roman columns is cool but not how it was used here. Good luck.
>>453164The lettering is kind of cool, quirky and odd but still mostly legible...but the placement of "Roma" works totally against it making sense and is just too much.The capital O works too even though it's a different typeface but the U isn't really helping things .... I would suggest laying it all out straight in a single line and then tweaking individual elements you think *really* need to be weirder
>>453168thnk for the tips ;)
>>453164ass
>>453164This sucks but you clearly have the vision and tools to make something beautiful. Keep at it
before/after thread i guess

What do you think of this style and design?
>>454011I think it's lovely but the person who made it could really use a hug

>>454129that sounds lovely! I wanna have that too!
>>454131you get a toe kiss too

whats the secret to making posters look professional? Im very good at proportions/perspective and it has always been my dream to make videogame covers and book covers and I now also want to sell posters online but have gotten bad feedback on pic rel, one that i worked ages on. I can't tell if its because it doesnt look professional enough or people just don't get that in the early 2000s, that was just the style, with the cropping and the lower resolution. How do I make it so i can make posters sell without losing my style?
>>454078>you don't understand that this is what posters looked like in y2k reeeeeeeeeethat was QUARTER A CENTURY AGO ago.maybe read into Peter Pan Syndrome and the idea of the Puer Aeternus?>I want to do posters now but at the same time mimic styles from when I was young and fresh and cool
>>454078you have to ell the prospective buyers exactly what they are getting and whyand then if they want that theyll buy it and not complain.also what a shitty photo to post do you really make stuff? terrible presentation. cant even see what there is going on in that
Anyone know what font this is or any similar one?I need it for an indesign thing. Also how do I change the fonts of all textboxes in indesign?txx<3

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/canva-acquires-affinity-design-suite-004813952.htmlRIP in peace Affinity Suite, you had such potentialHow do you think they will ruin it bros?
>>453791>I don't know why Affiinity products weren't mass adoptedAffinity Photo is shit. I found two things I cant do in it after 2 hours of use. Not to mention some stupid UI and UX decisions. Im amateur in Photoshop and I felt the downgrade...
I don't think they'd do anything drastic enough to put off their users. At least not right away.
>>453757Will this open the doors for a native Linux version of Affinity? Serif has cited the lack of funding as the main reason they couldn't make one. Now that they're owned by a $40 billion company, that shouldn't really be much of a problem anymore.
>>453776>is *the* source of Affinity's success.what success? also, RIP
>>454058the little success it had, dummy.
A splendid time is guaranteed for all
Anybody else just recreate stuff? I was organizing my e-book library and noticed the cover of this book was extremely low-res, and every other image I could google was either low-res or the wrong aspect ratio for my Kindle, so I just re-did it in photoshop lol.Have you ever done something like this anon? Maybe you recreated an obscure CD cover or the graphic for an out of print t-shirt? Show me!
>>453054Yes, but only if it's easy or I'm helping something bigger than me because my drive only works when those are the stakes
