State of the Sndbox Competition Entry ^.^

It's been so long since I last joined a contest. It's already Sunday and some deadlines are coming close, but I decided to spend a few hours for an entry. I had to, the idea simply appeared as a bright spark in my head. XD

For this State of the Sndbox Competition I chose a simple, but effective design trend called Integration. It's basically a compilation between text/font/numbers and shape/photograph (in this case the Sndbox logo and a female character, because I love drawing female body XD). According to Philip VanDusen it's"almost like they're living in one physical space." You can find more about this and other trends in his video 15 Trends in Graphic Design for 2018.
This was a great source of inspiration. ^.^

I didn't get to use the logo of the @sndbox, only took the colors from it and placed the logotype in the center of my canvas. For the initial sketch of the woman I used a reference from Pixabay.

Next step was to fill the body and hair with solid colors. What I like about this color palette is the contrast between some of them. That's why decided to make the hair green. For the title I chose a white to make it pop up more. One of the rules is for the logo to be visible even in small size.

I've been following Paintable.cc for couple of months now. That's how I recieved some very interesting brush sets, especially for the skin and hair. One of them was used here to make the strands of hair - #6 I believe. ;)

Next was making some shades of the body. I didn't use the blue so here's a chance to do it. ;)

Final version

It's a bit different from my usual drawings, but I'm quite happy (and also surprised) with the result, because I got to use some of my graphic design skills. ^.^
Hope you like it!
Thanks for stopping by! ^.^
