It began when I started to design a new website for a new identity :) I decided I didn't want to use my name as the domain anymore so my friend and I came up with 'timeless realm' as the new name. I like it a lot! Sort of describes what I draw and create very well. So with a new site I'll need a new namecard...
To start with I had two designs to choose from! I like this design because it is clean and straightforward.
This was the second design and true to my style it is filled with lines! I actually liked this a lot, but after asking around at that small size the lines could be too overwhelming. But I still enjoy the feel of it :)
So I decided to go with the first design and redrew the walking troupe to be more lively and fun! The first time around looks almost like they were walking to work lol
Somehow the girl reading a book on the back of some beast has transformed into a lizard instead. Don't ask me why... Also the big furry one with the horns and goofy smile is back, giving us a peace sign! lol But something was not jelling in this design, I felt the vines didn't work with the walking menagerie at the bottom. Also the text was not as nice arranged like this.
If something doesn't work, keep going at it until it does! :P
It was a headache for me to reach this stage. Lots of drafts were made before I had a lightbulb moment and drew in a background with mountains instead. Then I decided it would be cool if the design joined up at the edges to form a continuously walking group of creatures! I was quite rushed for time as I had to get the namecars printed the next day, but I'm very satisfied at how it turned out! At the Rainforest Gallery bazaar one of the funnest things was showing people how the namecards linked up :) I know I enjoy it a LOT XD
