Description
Every generation has their own set of buzzwords. I’m still deeply entrenched with those made popular through Bill & Ted, Waynes world, and occasionally if I can make it work Ninja turtles.

Sick is what I hear all the time ingame. ‘Sick kill’, ‘Sick skin’, ‘that play was sick’. Reminds me of ‘ill’ which is what the beastie boys used so I don’t mind it. But I’m taking the meaning back here. It’s literally dripping with bile. Awesome.

I spent a lot of time in illustrator nudging anchors and smoothing paths, trying to make it look cool; it’s imperfect but thats ok, it helps it look more 'on the spur' freehand. Originally the plan was to take the paths and make a 3D version: a more complex execution than thug life with a properly contoured mesh and featuring overlapping parts for interest. I’ve also textured it with a high gloss material with reflection to make it look chromey. Lush.

Some people prefer vector graphics so I’ve also accommodated that preference with one of the glossy versions. The glossy 3D version looks nice but for my money doesn’t have the same impact. I really love the foil version as it pops out, the environment variables might be too strong for some so I’ve included a commented subdued set of variables in the VMT; it’s well dark.

I did try adding further detail like a dead vomiting smiley face and a surrounding silver outline, but the silver reduced contrast - and by extension - impact, and the face just made the phrase more niche; by keeping it to the essential form I’ve kept the meaning more vague so it applies universally, and that’s what I’ve gone with.

Let me know if you like the colours and final form. I just hope you didn't think it sucked!
