Description
Combined the vector paths with the sketch for comparisson.[One of the 4 sketches I did for a collab between me and Aeiko/ Wirestyle for Dolce & Gabanna to be printed in a book.
To see the final image: [link]
The idea and inspiration for the typeface treament came from the baroque and rococco period, this was becasue this style of decoration emobodied the kind of decadence thats often asscociated with the fashion industry.]

It's beautiful, I'd like to achieve a style similar to that with typography. Though, I'm not very skilled at detail just yet. I was wondering what you used to make this finished product.

Wow. Awesome typography It kinda reminds me of Si Scott's stuff. Anyways, I love the way it sort of changes from a rough-ish sketch on the sides to neater solid lines.

Baroque and Rococco make for excellent illustration.
I seem to want to flip between minimalism and very complicated historical designs. This one satisfies my latter impulse.
I really like this typography treatment. More so than the actual image, because I like the messiness and the compositing of the sketchbook (thats where the messiness comes in) and the clean vector type. [Yes, don't you wish you could make vector-clean lines?]
This is some great work, I really hope to see more typo work from ya (you probably did by now..I'm cleaning out my 200 odd dA messages in ascending order)

Was this drawn on the computer, or in the hand and scanned in to the computer?
How did you work with this?

I drew it on paper then scanned it, vectored it. Then in photoshop combined them, erassing parts of the sketch.

Looks great. I like the sketchy look of it. Looks a lot like it's drawn on real paper. Texture on the background is great too
