It's been more than two weeks since I've finally moved permanently to California, USA. Before the big move I was playing with Illustrator and Photoshop to create a vintage look badge. After a few hours trying different typefaces I got a nice result and published it on my Dribbble profile.
I have received quite a few emails since I published that asking me how I did the effect, so in this tutorial I will show you how to create a vintage look badge using Illustrator and Photoshop
The wallpaper of this week is an image created by Timothée Mathelin. A graphic designer from France. His influences are from everywhere, from skies to David Lynch and The Designers Republic to Baroque.
My main influences come from everyday’s life. Just a bird on a wire or a falling leaf from a tree... Every living motion gives me an inspiration of what is life and the wish to illustrate it. Lately, I’ve been really inspired by futuristic times and the imagination of new civilizations.

The book suggestion of this week is very inspiring, especially for those out there fans of LPs. The book is called The Art of the LP: Classic Album Covers 1955-1995 and it has a great variety of cover design styles from punk rock to pop all divided by thematic chapters.
