I just finished up the 2010 identity for Nubbytwiglet.com. As a challenge, I create a new version each year. Last year’s can be seen here.

One of my agency friends contacted me last week, wondering if I would design a ’257′ for his five year old son who races go-karts. I stayed up past my bedtime to do an experimental first round. Though his dad is the coolest ever, I’m not sure if the weapons will make the cut in [...]
