DAY 432

day 432. I went with white today and also a fill in concept for my Rhino project, that I never used at the end. And the dots are back!

DAY 431

 day 431. Nothing special today. I was missing inspiration, so I tried. But at least I got the daily practice. 

DAY 430

 

 

day 430. I got confused again, so I had to do another board to be back on track. So technically day 429 failed, because I was 3 hours overtime. But it was a mistake and not lazyness and I corrected my mistake right away. So I consider it as still done. So I did this board as fast as never before, and that also taught me something.



Also by messing up the challenge, it showed me again what type of person I am. I  have to be honest about it. I can't just pretend it didnt happen, even tho no one wouldve noticed. So making a mistake is not a big deal, if you do your best to correct it and try to avoid to repeat it. 



I am mentally exhausted now.





DAY 429

 

day 429. I started watching "stranger things" and finished the first season. So for today I felt inspired to do a "strange" board. πŸ˜… I reimagined their logo with only doing the outlines of the font and I tried to make it slightly glowy. For the background I took my graffiti and morphed it in a "strange way". 



Ok now leave me alone, season 2 waits! 😁

New boards in store

 just finished a session of adding new boards to the store. Check them out! πŸ€—πŸ’š

https://rhinosaur-arts.myshopify.com/collections/boards

Now I will have some food and then enjoy the rest of thesunlight in the yard before doing the daily board. Finishing my Batman comic "the dark prince" 😁 

DAY 428

day 428. Slightly late, but still in time. I was on a birthday party yesterday and I still feel wasted.  

On this board today I tried to pay attention to detail and tried to make the endresult as convincing as I could. 

and yeah these took as long as it takes to rewatch the green lantern movie. That movie is something else.  but I still enjoy it for what it is.

DAY 427

day 427. I will more often make use of particles now.πŸ€” Same with good lighting, they up the quality alot in my opinion. 😁

DAY 426

 

day 426. today I just wanted to record me doing the highlights. ✍well it got out of control again and I got overrun by the inspiration. πŸ˜…So I messed a bit with colours and fillins and what I ended up with is a pretty dope looking poster concept.. Then I recycled it for today boards, where I did just a normal version where I just slapped it on there. Then a morphed version and a cutout-effect version. Nothing super polished but I learned alot and only that matters.



And yeah since I recorded it, later you will get the timelapse, for everyone who is interested. 

DAY 425

day 425. the last one I did is my favourite. 😁✍

individual nameposter

Now please give me all your feedbacl.  πŸ™



My idea of a custom nameposter. My newest alphabet, with your name on it and higlighted letters. 



Overall I do this only for you. πŸ˜… So tell me what you would like on a custom nameposter? Most time so far I spent on the background so the rest is not fleshed out, but I wanted to ask for feedback and input before I go all in. 



This first test is with my name, but I will keep the people in mind that give me valuable feedback. πŸ˜‰  Like getting one for free will hopefully be enough motivation. 😁

DAY 424

day 424. Quick and colourful. πŸ˜πŸ’šβœ

DAY 423

 day 423. Did I almost missed a day? I just got real confused. Instagram tells me this, my brain say "cant remember" so I better be sure and do 2 today. πŸ˜… Anyways deadline is in 1,5 hours, so I am good. I dont have to start at day 1 again. 😁

So I wanted to practice this 3d shadow block efffect on my letters for a while, because thats really something I want to improve on. I did it better in the past, so thats why I am not quite happy with it. If you same some tipps for me on how to shade it more realistically it would be much appreciated. 

I will have a video of the full creation of that smaragd coloured rhino piece. I am not super happy with the letterstyle, but I wanted to do something with them, otherwise they just would collected dust on the harddrive. 

Hope you enjoy. 

Also I am working on an awesome nameposter with my alphabet, that will be customizable to have your name on it. 

DAY 422

 

day 422. Life is funny sometimes. Today it was the exact opposite of yesterday. I wanted to make some really really quick boards, but I got carried away. πŸ˜… 



Since I have finished my alphabet today, I had some real cool photos that would make a cool board already. I did two of that kind and then I got so inpired that I started to colour the letters, add some highlights and added some small effects to polish the experience. 



πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ what you gotta do. When inspiration calls you have to answer. πŸ˜… Ok now icecream.

ABC-SP7 done

 

Great sunday so far! 🌻Finished my style practice 7 Alphabet in the morning.



Theres only a dropshadow missing. It saves alot of struggles when later digitalizing it. So I decided to do it without this time.



Also some of the letters around the alphabet are pretty wonky. πŸ˜… 

DAY 421

 

day 421. I had huge ambitions today, but When I was at it, nothing worked out and everything I tried felt like a waste of time. Well I still like the outcome, but hate how I got there. πŸ˜…



Without those days you can't appreciate the good ones, so everything is good. πŸ€—πŸ’š 

DAY 4 2 0

 

day 421. I had huge ambitions today, but When I was at it, nothing worked out and everything I tried felt like a waste of time. Well I still like the outcome, but hate how I got there. πŸ˜…



Without those days you can't appreciate the good ones, so everything is good. πŸ€—πŸ’š 

New concepts

 

New hoodie fullart concepts. 

DAY 419

 

day 419. Free boards for the client from my recent comission. He wants to print a few. 

DAY 418

day 418. Quick one today. I planned a 10 minute board. 45 minutes later I am still here. I just keep getting lost in details no matter how hard I try. I added the teal tag and tried some light effects. ✍🧐

It's a mug!

 This on your mug will make the day a guaranteed win.  🀣

I extra made the alphabet kinda hard to identify, because that will activate your still tired brain. Its tougher because its just outlines and there is no fill in that would separate the letters. So there you have your first braintask for the day. πŸ˜…

https://rhinosaur-arts.myshopify.com/collections/mugs

DAY 417

 

day 417. Today I practiced the "Make it look like its on a wall"-effect.✍ I improved my skills and learned alot.😎 I think I have never done 5 boards in a day, but I was just so inspired, that after the third board I went wild with some graffiti and for the fifth one I picked my batman symbol I morphed from my graffiti. All you see is made by me even the photo of the wall everything is placed on.



Ok the man and the bird are stockphotos.😁

New fullart concept

Dope collaboration

Dope collaboration with my man @psychoatapes. Back then I did the graffiti and he illustrated riley the rhinosaur going wild with the spraycans. 

New shirts

 

 This is one of my alltime most popular alphabets. For some reason you guys love this one far more than others I have done. So now you can wear it! 

I have managed to upload all the version I had from it, so you have wide variety to choose from.  Check them out here  https://rhinosaur-arts.myshopify.com/collections/shirts

DAY 416

day 416. Today I combined the comission I am working on right now, with the outlines of my newest alphabet and really tried to use as saturated colours as I could without physically harming you, the viewer. πŸ˜… I like the outcome and the dots have made an appearance again. 

Also the client will get these designs for free on top, so double triple win for all. 😁

some boards-collectable cards

 

some boards!

I always wanted to collect my art in a binder like yugioh cards. 😁 A long time awaited passion project becomes reality. Now I just have to create a game around them. I already have some good ideas.

Now I am curious what you think.

Sorry if its not "graffiti or skateboardy enough" this time, but you are the people I wanted to ask. πŸ˜… 

DAY 415

day 415. While I was at it I made some free screensavers for everyone who likes.  For today I made these boards from a leggings-design concept I made yesterday. "Passion fuels perfection". Even tho perfection is unreachable, your best will do it too.

grab the screensavers here in my website under free downloads

Style-practice #7 is here

 its just theoutlines so far and nothing else. So no highlights or shadows. The sketch itself isnt even fully done, but I learned over the last 6 abc's, that having a clean version with just the outlines will make some things alot easier later on. 

Also I could avoid some mistakes I made the last times and I prepared the piece better, so more pixels for example or sizing up the original photo and then make the outlines. Don't make the outlines and thensize them up... 


consictency combined with fun equals improvement. 🫡 

fresh concepts

 

 New design Ideas I concepted this night alongside some other projects. the first one is "passion fuels everything" and this a design for leggings and yoga pants. and the other is a fullart hoodie concept with a rhino graffiti and some PHAT gradient. 😁 Now I am super tired and go to bed 

New/old wallart

 

It's a showcase of the different layers my digital graffiti usually consists of. It's quite an old design that shows me and my art in an earlier stage.  It still has a lot of charme. 


Brilliant print quality, Lightweight, strong and sturdy for a very good price. Definetely my favourite go to wallart material. 

DAY 414

 

 

day 414. I discovered, that a dotted newspaper texture is really adding to the overall quality of the boards. Before my gimp crashed on a different project earlier I was playing around with coloured dots on a bright background. They were barely visible, but they gave the picture a very unique appearence. 



The alphabet is my style practice with some effects I made a while ago. I am not sure if I ever showed you all the  colours I did. But yeah Its just the outlines from a mobile phone photo and some highlights, shadows and dropshadow. You can see it upclose very good. 



 Tomorrow I have a big load of stuff to show to you. I just received 3 new forex foam print wallmounts and also The first definitve version of my collecting cards has arrived aswell, so tomorrow in sunlight I want to make some good photos. 



Have a nice evening!

DAY 413

 

day 413. I played with some colours again and practiced compositing. I tried some new Ideas, but also tried to improve on the things I usually do. The first two are definetely better than the other. So I still wanted to include them. 



 1% better everyday. πŸ€—

DAY 412

day 412. I did this new tag yesterday, that I am super happy with. It might not be the best looking handstyle ever, but it's purpose is to be stylish but readable at the same time. And that turned out amazing. So I made some quick boards for today.


also I somehow deleted 411's post. Its here below

New design

New alphabet. 😊 This time as a handstyle. I slightly changed the design compared to the board I did a couple days ago. 

They are currently not for sale. Hit me up if you want one. You can decide my markup. 

MUGTASTIC

What would you drink out of it? Like who does never drink coffee like me? Nothing tastes better out of a mug than beer. πŸ˜‹ The main design is on the other side. So its more of a teaser. Its the whole alphabet visible in the same green.


"This cupboard essential is sturdy, sleek, and perfect for your morning java or afternoon tea."😝 Is not the description I would've picked. It's a mug get over it. The design is made with love and passion, so get yourself one of those, to be inspired every morning while looking at the art and preparing for the day. πŸ’ͺ Be mindful and live in the here and now and this will be your best day ever! πŸ₯³

Thanks for supporting me and my art.

new concepts

Some new Hoodies fullart concepts. πŸ€—πŸ’š

DAY 409

 

day 409. Today I did this handstyle alphabet from scratch and finally after a while I also sketched a little bit. These characters are not from this world, they are "out of my mind" πŸ˜… 



overall it took around 2,5 hours





I vote chicken!

I am working on my online store. There is so much to do. πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’« Today I managed to clear the frontpage abit and I made some categories now. Check it out.  https://rhinosaur-arts.myshopify.com



Oh and I think tomorrow my trading cards should arrive. Super excited for those.

DAY 408

 

day 408. Some lettering today.

New shirt

Living the lovely life. My L practice in a new light. πŸ€—πŸ’š



It's funny that at first I did the complex design and after that I went back and also made a more simplified version. Now I don't know wich one I like more. 



Or I just dont want to admit that the simple one is better, because I already spent enough time one the coloured one. πŸ˜…



Also the simple designs that are just black, will fit to almost any colour, Where the green one I find only really fits to the white shirt 

DAY 407

 

day 407. I tried a quick fill in for my L practice and also did some letter practice. I like how the handstyle turned out. I redid it like 3 times.

DAY 406

day 406. Super uninspired today. So I did some letterpractice.

DAY 405

day 405. The city is your canvas. paint it with wheels! πŸ›ΉAs usual I couldnt decide wich colour I like the best.πŸ˜… Also do you see a difference in the coloursplashes on the blue compared to the others? I used a shadow on the white layer above, so it gives it more depth. Thats a pretty good looking and easy technique that I have to expand up on in the future. ✍🧐

New screensavers

I made some free screensavers out of my recent alphabet #6. check out the free downloads section

DAY 404

day 404. Mindset is everything! Of course I made some boards out of it. 

NEW DESIGN

After leaving it for a week, I finally found the inspiration to finish this design. 😊 What do you think?

Mindset is everything. πŸ€—πŸ’š 

Check it out here https://rhinosaur-arts.myshopify.com/products/mindset-is-everything-by-dino-premium-shirt

DAY 403

 day 403. Digged out my old Rhino piece.πŸ™‚ This one and an old Dino graff I did in a different style than usual. More with 3d shaped letters and with no outlines.πŸ€” I really like that style and I have learned a lot since then. Still I am too scared to start, because the fear of failing before every new piece is omnipresent anyways. And yeah have you noticed how one board just doesnt fit to the other two at all?πŸ˜‚ I still liked that muddy green so much I had to keep it. And the white tag on that one is the one I used 2 years ago. 

DAY 402

 

day 402. The colour correction tool in gimp is a science for itself. πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’« I slowly get the hang of it. πŸ˜…The possibilities are huge but you easily overtune it. So its really a mater of experimenting and seing what works and what not. So I took my morph from yesterday and tried some more bold colours. βœπŸ›Ή

coming soon

 YES! 🀩Foldable collecting cards made by dino. 



 I just ordered them after I finished the design. They are meant to be collected in a binder just like yugioh or pokemon cards. I rather have 20 of these than one hanging on a wall.  🀩 omg I am so excited. Like all the possibilities for special cards like holographic ones or multiple cards together create one big picture. This gonna be awesome. They will even fit in the standard protecting cases for trading cards. 



I even have different rarities planned. Like the coloured "RHNSR" font on the inside indicates the rarity. 1 green letter means standard and 5 green letters will be the rarest.  below that you have an indicator on how much cards are in this series. so we can keep track on our collection. πŸ€—πŸ’š 

day 401

day 401. I did a new morph. βœπŸ€— Made entirely from my recent dino project.  It took like 3 times as long as the other ones, since I paid more attention to details and lighting.Theres still alot of room for improvements. πŸ€”

ARCHIVE June 22

Here you see more daily dose of art. I was using pngs so it slowed down the website alot.
