Line Art vs. Silhouette
Hehe. Ok, client’s opinion is always right. There goes my line art for the proposed illustration I did a week ago. They like the idea but the illustrations are a bit too comical or cute for an elegant company. I take that as a good criticism and it’s almost hard to know what’s exactly in their mind instantly. It takes time to come to an agreement and I hope we will, by third or fourth amendments.
And for the silhouette illustrations, I start again from A right down to Z. Now using pen tool with clean lines. Hope to get more elegant feel.

Sometimes client think we can read their mind eh? the thing is sometimes they dont know what they want but can only tell us what they dont want when we’re finished with the work.. alahai!

the designers at my office faced this problem when the bosses wanted new designs for the website. At first they tell the designers to show your cadangans and then they hentam the cadangan. Clients they don’t know what they want until they see what they don’t want.

Agreed with bem69,
Kak emi, pedapat sy la.. makan kalo buat dlm bentuk silhouette ni –kalo dia nak guna sebagai simbol ok la kot.. tp kalo utk represent menu.. orang nak order maybe akan turn off.
kak..
salt and pepper bottles tu so cute!!! me likey!

Yeah kak.. handling the client request is most challenging part. Kita dah buat, kita rasa design dah ok, then bila tunjuk kat client, depa kata tak lawa la terlalu kartoonish la apa la..
but for me, i like yang lukis pakai pen tu.. π

Biasa laa tuh Emila. Sigh…yg lagi penat tu bila part bayarannya pun sengals dan lembabs.
Masa nak buat banyak songeh, nak bayaq buat liat. Menyiaga tapi rasa cam mintak sedekah. Cit!
Anyway, I have a little pressie for you. Hope you like it π Check out.
Wait, I bring back my keyboard than can whip a jinggle up for you. No promises though…takutΒ² kalau keyboard tu pulak sakit.

it’s not a menu, just a greeting card. they want a lot of white space.
