What is State of the Sndbox? There is a great design community @sndbox which supports really good high quality post. Well, it is actually not only regarding design and arts but I entered the club mainly because of that. They have really good taste. The idea behind that is we are all playing here like in a sandbox. When you are blogging in that state of mind it gives you relaxation. You don't think about payments and just playing like a child. This is nice statement, right?
Monthly Competition
Month ago I've created this illustration for that challenge. You can read more about it here. |
Last time I didn't won but I like the idea and want to create another piece to give it another try. I like the shape of sandbox and feel it could be used to play with...
My Second Entry
So here is my second try I was playing with same shape of sandbox together with that nice brand colors. Wanted to draw a girl this time and I thought it would work if the shape of her haircut would look like the brand shape.
Started with simple silhouettes as usual. Then applied colors, added lights and shades together with details here and there.
Here is my temporary workspace in my sister's @inspirations house in Moscow where four kids are laughing and crying at the same time and the whole atmosphere is like a hurricane. I am here to conduct Sri Sri Yoga course starting today. Will stay here for six days and then Khabarovsk is waiting for me with yoga courses and illustration master classes.
Finals
Please, wish me luck in this monthly contest. Here two variants with different backgrounds are. Could you choose it for me?
I would suggest the darker one with proper eye contact...
Best of Luck @dunsky
Both are remarkable!
like the first/lighter version more.....good luck on the contest :)
very good @dunsky hopefully healthy always best friend
The light one, softer and lovely. The darker one also great, mysterious feeling...hm... difficult to choose xD
The light one +1, may be the eye contact also counts x)
Good luck Dunsky :D Ha I like that she has a tiny birthmark above her lip :)
Well done @dunsky, I like the darker theme (second option) I've never heard of Sri Sri Yoga, hope you blog about it so we can learn more !

Good luck - I like the soft shading style and vector feel.
I also love that you're working on a Surface. I haven't actually tried doing anything artistic on mine - I still use my Samsung Note Pro 10. I really should try it because it's certainly working for you!
The lighter version is too cute! nice job. :)

I think the first one is your best. Also, I LOVE that the squares/diamond shapes are imperfect. It makes the whole piece!
