The image of this Study Case I'm about to explain is made for the client Soundos. She's a comedian in The Netherlands. I worked on it at work for 2 days, around 13 hours. It was a fun project and the client was very happy with it when it was done. And when the client is happy, I can consider it done.
First version
Here is the first version. Nothing special about it yet; basically I've rendered her and searched for a nice background to put her in. It was important that the whole image was capable for her site (www.soundos.nl) and that the perspective was right.
The wallpaper of this week is an image created by Richard Roberts an US based freelance illustrator and designer. He has been illustrating digital for over six years and has had the pleasure of working with clients world wide. Richard is a very diverse artist using an array of different styles and techniques and always strives to push the limits of his work.

The book suggestion of this week is a very inspiring one for those in love with vintage typography, it's called Scripts: Elegant Lettering from Design's Golden Age. It's definitely a book for when you need some extra motivation and inspiration.
