@ermanmalak i've got a new product concept i've been itching to start on all week so hopefully after modelling, i'll wrangle the courage and put these tips to work

[Mofo @aemofo]

@ermanmalak yeah I'm just realizing its the fully collapsed right side panels that threw me haha. i've never thought to minimize them

[Mofo @aemofo]

@benfryc unnamed layers, groups, and nulls vs every single thing named, organized and colour-coded

[Mofo @aemofo]

@ermanmalak also, is this a new plasticity beta?? the UI looks different https://t.co/hN8JiCIyRk

Started blocking out a new device this week.

I usually rush the details and materials before the form is actually right.

But now I model the base shape first. Get the proportions locked. Then I add bevels, chamfers, lighting and materials before thinking about rendering.

is it that people don't realize how tacky these chatgpt generated youtube thumbnail graphics are or they don't care? surely we aren't to believe paint stroke fonts are suddenly back in style?

@safehaven you need to make the desolate type a full font

Since there's a lot of stealing of work going on, here's a tip for designers who may be inclined to rip: rip ethically.

I learned how to ethically rip early in my career, it goes like this: take the design that inspires you, that you're tempted to rip, and figure out exactly what about it makes it so rippable to you. Chances are it's not that the design *exactly* satisfies your needs, it's likely that it just does a really good job communicating similar brand qualities to what you're hoping to communicate.

Figuring out how to get symbols and colors and type to communicate brand qualities, especially early in your career is a challenge, hence the urge to just skip the step altogether and rip. But if you're able to say, for example, 'this design feels really technical because of the layout and the use of color.' then you're closer to getting it.

recreate the design, but view all of the elements as levers. color is a lever, type is a lever, layout is a lever, etc. If you move one lever away from the quality you're trying to communicate, move another lever back into it. keep adjusting the levers until it's not a rip of the original, but inspired by it. we're all inspired by stuff.

now you've not only not directly ripped and not ruined your reputation online by posting a rip, but you've also begun to understand brand strategy and gotten better as a designer. keep building your references and someday you won't need to rip at all, ethically or not.

this piece is especially funny when you realize all the text elements are just modified lyrical excerpts from Cowboy Carter
