Just Stop It

I've had enough of these posters already. They're fucking everywhere. The trend is beyond dead so just stop. Please and thank you.

Summits

I started making these badges of famous mountain peaks. They're mostly simple three color vectors on a gradient background and simple styling.  I wouldn't call them a work in progress but I'm not quite sure if they're done yet. Anyway, here they are. 

Ama Dablam is a mountain in the Himalaya range of eastern Nepal. The main peak is 6,812 metres (22,349 ft), the lower western peak is 5,563 metres (18,251 ft). Ama Dablam means "Mother's necklace"; the long ridges on each side like the arms of a mother (ama) protecting her child, and the hanging glacier thought of as the dablam, the traditional double-pendant containing pictures of the gods, worn by Sherpa women. For several days, Ama Dablam dominates the eastern sky for anyone trekking to Mount Everest basecamp.


The Matterhorn (German), Monte Cervino (Italian) or Mont Cervin (French), is a mountain in the Pennine Alps on the border between Switzerland and Italy. Its summit is 4,478 meters (14,690 ft) high, making it one of the highest peaks in the Alps. The four steep faces, rising above the surrounding glaciers, face the four compass points. The mountain overlooks the town of Zermatt in the canton of Valais to the north-east and Breuil-Cervinia in the Aosta Valley to the south. The Theodul Pass, located at the eastern base of the peak, is the lowest passage between its north and south side.


Mount Everest (NepaliसगरमाथाSagarmāthāTibetanཇོ་མོ་གླང་མWyliejo mo glang maChomolungma or Qomolangma /ˈmˌlɑːŋmə/ choh-moh-lahng-mə, "Holy Mother"; Chinese珠穆朗玛峰pinyin:Zhūmùlǎngmǎ Fēng;) is the Earth's highest mountain, with a peak at 8,848 metres (29,029 ft) above sea level and the 5th tallest mountain measured from the centre of the Earth. It is located in the Mahalangur section of theHimalayas. The international border between China and Nepal runs across the precise summit point. Its massif includes neighboring peaks Lhotse, 8,516 m (27,940 ft); Nuptse, 7,855 m (25,771 ft) and Changtse, 7,580 m (24,870 ft).


Mushroom Peak

Cerro Torre is one of the mountains of the Southern Patagonian Ice Field in South America. It is located in a region which is disputed between Argentina and Chile, west of Cerro Chalten (also known as Fitz Roy). The peak is the highest in a four mountain chain: the other peaks are Torre Egger (2,685 m), Punta Herron, and Cerro Stanhardt. The top of the mountain often has a mushroom of rime ice, formed by the constant strong winds, increasing the difficulty of reaching the actual summit.


Mount Fuji
Mount Fuji (富士山 Fuji-san?IPA: [ɸɯꜜdʑisaɴ], located on Honshu Island, is the highest mountain in Japan at 3,776.24 m (12,389 ft) An active stratovolcano that last erupted in 1707–08, Mount Fuji lies about 100 kilometres (62 mi) south-west of Tokyo, and can be seen from there on a clear day. Mount Fuji's exceptionally symmetrical cone, which is snow-capped several months a year, is a well-known symbol of Japan and it is frequently depicted in art and photographs, as well as visited by sightseers and climbers. It is one of Japan's "Three Holy Mountains" (三霊山 Sanreizan?) along with Mount Tate and Mount Haku; it is a Special Place of Scenic Beauty, a Historic Site, and has been submitted for future inscription on the World Heritage List as a Cultural (rather than Natural) Site.

Feather & Bird

Was making some silhouettes and started forming them into patterns. Here is the first one. I was making birds and feather icons for some branding. It might be a bit too intense for a pattern.






Large version here.

Preview of some new branding for an upcoming CollegeHumor article.
Went through quite a few iterations before settling on this execution.

Wave Logo Exploratino

I was making an icon of a wave and accidentally made a logo. I got side tracked playing with gradient mesh and ended up flushing it out into an identity. Here's the logo for fictitious Third Wave and Co.
