THE CHALLENGE

You make a grid and then make something with it, but what if you made something with the inbetweens? the gutter space no one’s looking at?

You get sharp teeth, bone-thin lines, and curling motifs.

Presenting VAMPYRE

The Process

You start with a simple doodle- circles drawn inside a 4×3 grid. And then because you love doodling, you start filling in the little gaps.

And then you think to yourself  “Sh*t that looks kinda cool”
