Description Last week I completed my first full year studying Graphic Design (phew-eee!!!), so I've decided that NOW is the time to share y'all the projects that I exhausted my creative energies into over the past 9 months or so. And that's what I'm gonna do. So there. Don't bother tryin to stop me, you know I've already began.

First up are a series of logos designed as part of a project based on a class trip to the Cold War Museum in Cosford. Around the same time we were studying the work of movie poster designer Saul Bass (it might be worth looking up the Google Search Engine at this point), and his style proved to be a massive inspiration throughout the creative process. It was a lot of fun (and a lot of hard work) trying to emulate the jagged shapes and raw typography, which to me almost look like paper cut-outs.

All the designs were originally drawn on layout paper and were finished off and cleaned up using Adobe Illustrator, with whom I have pretty much grown to know and love like a family pet.

I'm still at the inking stage of it. Just got to finish off a few more panels before I start colouring.
