Illustrations are nice....Interface is a little weird, like if you roll over the "about, contact, port" while loading a illustration the progress bar disapears. Also no #9 in the list.
Design wise, I think it would be good to adapt your illustration style to the text on the right and the loading bar. Yopu have a distinct style so why not use it everywhere??

lovin' the work, for sure...but the site is questionable. I totally agree with Soler, you have a great style, incorporate that more into the user experience. Repost if you end up redesigning...I'm interested.

i agree a bit with soler
i like seeing textures and stuff online rather than flat vector stuff.
and you've got texture and stuff like smudges in your drewings so why not do something similar with the site.

great work - weak website...use your illustrations more - they're strong...
I graduated from middlesex too...BA History though...

I'm loving the dirty text. Wish I could recreate that effect and actually make it look good.

nice indeedy man. very unique style. and yes, like everyone else was saying, tie in the type style you have with the links. bam!
- Self_Induced0
How exactly did you get that style with the type? Brushes?
And thanks Jevad. I just wish I had more time to mess with my site.

Cool. It's a great effect.

zach,
brushes do the job quick, but.. the best way is to scan dirty things. (not porn)
scan like, old old books, and scratched up boxes, teh best thing i found was an old tin can that was painted white. then i cut that, flattend it and scanned it... fucked with it in photoshop and it was sweettttt...
do you want brushes?
- Self_Induced0
Sure Derek2.
I've played around with making my own brushes and textures, just never came up with any decent results. They always looked either too dirty, or too obvious that they were brushes.
I guess that's why I liked Ell's type so much, because it doesn't really look like it was done with PS brushes.

Hi BXCAR
I'm working freelance at the moment. Working on anything I can get my hands on ( well, not anything!)

Can't think of an ideal job. There maybe too many!
