Monster Icons

Initial line up of monster designs

These icons were originally created a while ago from sketches that were translated to the digital realm when I was on an Illustrator rampage. Recently, I decided to revise the original illustrations by applying new colors as well as a grid system to the composition of each character. I began with a 10px x 10px grid and as I worked I created new forms based on this proportion. As I finish exercises like these I am constantly reminded that I am indeed an architect. I share a desire to design based on a set base or parameters and rules. I discovered a while ago that true beauty is derived from constrictions. Download a set for your own needs:
