Hi everyone, today I'm going to show you some quick tips on how to make a simple but effective vector illustration inspired on the classic video game, Worms. If you are from the 80's or 90's you probably heard of it or had the chance to play it, it is "the predecessor of Angry Birds" in the words of my mate Mike Austin.
On this quick tip I will have a more tradicional illustration approach, focusing less on tools and more on drawing and logic, hope you guys appreciate it and show your version on the comments, have a good time.
The wallpaper of this week is an image I created for a project where the client asked me to play with lens flare. I know it's the most hated filter ever but we can create really nice thing with it as long we avoid the default settings. This image is also inspired by some videos of lens flares plugins for After Effects.
I will create a tutorial showing how I did that, it will be up soon.

The book suggestion of the week is one of my favorites, it's called Typology: Type Design From Victorian Era to the Digital Age and it covers a lot of art history always linking with types and typography. It's a must read for those starting out their careers or even willing to dust off their typology and typography skills.
