I’m fortunate to have worked with a lot of amazing designers over the years. Some were curious about designing in the browser with basic #HTML and #CSS, but weren’t sure where to begin, or felt discouraged by a lot of developer-centric content.

This is the advice I gave that seemed to resonate most: https://cloudfour.com/thinks/designing-in-the-browser-five-tips-for-beginners/

During one of my earliest professional projects, I encountered a progress bar that was, as the engineering team put it, “complete nonsense.” (That’s the G-rated version, anyway. )

Here’s the story of how it worked, why it worked that way, and the more honest alternatives I’ve recommended since then: https://cloudfour.com/thinks/truth-lies-and-progress-bars/

I’ve been designing web experiences for 20+ years. While I use and enjoy dedicated design software, I’m pretty sure I design “in the browser” more than most.

Here are just a few reasons why… https://cloudfour.com/thinks/why-i-like-designing-in-the-browser/

Nothing beats starting a design with a hand-drawn sketch. #Sketching #HandDrawn #DesignProcess #CreativeThinking #arttodesign#design #musicalinterface #musicalinstruments

From this, to the next one.

Not done yet still got bits to finish at it especially in the back, but this shows how I made it look better I belive from the concept to the actual model head.

Took a break and switched to this hence I couldnt find a right leg armor combo yet. Gonna have to cook that a bit more.

Concept.

Didn't make the cut, but was a good practice.

Gonna make the guy MUCH more armored!

Gonna be fun once I end up nailing the design and I'll have to redo it all, so it's clean and cool and good looking.
