The coolest thing about writing tutorials is that I have the chance to try to recreate effects I see in movie posters, billboards, movies and practically anywhere. I've been learning so much since I started doing that, especially in terms of being more open to feedback and criticism. I also feel more freedom to try different things, that's the case of my new tutorial inspired by the Battleship movie.
The wallpaper of this week is an image created by Jacob Bian, a digital artist and graphic designer from Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. The image mixes 3D objects with some light effects that are sort of retro and futuristic, something like from the 80s.
For more information about the video Jacob we highly recommend that you check out his Behance Profile at http://www.behance.net/flareationalist or his DeviantArt profile at http://flareationalist.deviantart.com/
The book suggestion of the week is a must have for those willing to design nice web sites and pretty much anything. It is called Ordering Disorder: Grid Principles for Web Design (Voices That Matter) and as the name says it is all about grid systems or the principles behind it.
