Decisions for the Final

I am having a hard time deciding which draft to post for the final.

Draft 1


Draft 2


Draft 3


Draft 4


Draft 5


And after some more modifications I came up with these:

Thumbnail designs in color for Final Project

Here is the design that most of the comments were for in color:





Now I wait to see what kind of reaction I get.

Decisions on Final Project

I really liked draft 3 (the first one I came up with) so I had started to add color and effects to it. I came up eith this:



Which then developed into this:



And finally into this design:



I used the color scheme of Analogous 2 with the stars in the outer circle. Split Complementary on the diamonds, and Pentagram to choose the background color. I like this design, but I needed to go with the class and instructor votes so....

Final Project Design Thumbnails

Taking into account all that has been gone over in this class and others we were to make a design in black. white, and gray that can be modified into a color design. I had a few designs that I came up with.







I decided not to submit the last design in the group, since it looked to much like the assignment form week 2 when we were given the example to color (transparency lesson).

And this is my Illusion of Visual Vibration:

Illusion of Transparency

I started out with these two designs:





I then decided to use the blue/red design for the assignment. After I saw a few other designs from the other students I figured my designs did not have the proper look of transparency. So instead of picking colors manually (like I thought the directions said to do) I used the tools in Illustrator to do the adjustments for me and came up with this design:

Two Colors Appear as the Same Color

With this assignment we needed to show how two different colors can look like the same color. This was easier for me than the assignment to have one color look as two.

One Color Appears as Two Colors

In this exercise we were to make one color appear as two colors, with four different designs. Here is what I came up with:
