Art and Design
Below is a series of Art & Design work that I have produced over my studies of the field, progressing myself with illustration, graphics, logo design and photoshop design work.
uhl 2024 mAJOR
This is a recent logo design I have produced for the University Halo League Spring Major, taking place in London in March 2024. The overall theme of the event has been based off the European Halo League, which commonly includes characters involvements and further design surrounding the location. A main base used for this design was from the Blackpool Major of 2023, including banner designs, as well as landmarks from the town itself.
This was a small series of designs that I created within Adobe Illustrator for the team logos of Exe Academy Esports. The final prodcut was chosen as the second image
Hexed Logo.Final
Above is the final product of the Hexed Team logo for Exe Academy. Working alongside another Graphic artist, we used ideas from the teams main game focused on the mystical arts within it
Centurion Logo.final
Above is the completed design for Exe Academy Team Centurion, who based their name off the power and might of the Roman Centurions, which inspired the use of the iconic helmet depicted above, as well as the traditional pattern alongside the Modern sharp design work.
Above is some of the work I have done with London Legion Esports, in affiliation with the College of Esports. The main focus of these projects was create punchy and on point branding for the team itself, for example: the Christmas logo (right) was created using adobe illustrator, and implements the colourful attitude of the festive holidays with the logo. As well as this, I also created embed images for the community discord (left) of the team itself, which is currently a thriving space on the platform.
Above are a few designs I did for REEF Esports company for their rolling competition with takes places Every few months. the aim with this design was to get a cup which could signify all of the teams within the League of Legends Roster. This was done through their signature colours being used within the leaves. This design went through multiple iterations, which included metallic and gradient versions.
Exe Academy @ Christmas
During our Christmas season at Exe Academy, I had designed this logo to be used within social media posts, utilising the original Illustrator file and Adobe Photoshop to map the vector based Santa Clause Stereotypical beard and hat.
#Support Ukraine
In the worlds movement to support Ukraine in the ongoing crisis, I designed this alternate version of our main logo to show our own online support across our social platforms, similar to that of many teams around us.
Tim_TAhm
This is my current and my most recently made logo design in line with my Twitch Channel Tim_Tahm. I am a variety streamer and am an avid lover of Doom, Skyrim and all things adventure. I chose to push forward my love of the Doom Series, utilising the mark of the beast in my design, as well as my signature hair style and glasses.
TimTahmGraphics
In order to align my own brand and hone my skills into one, I took a lot of time debating and creating my own logo, making it very personal to me and basing the overall design off of my unique facial features and my style that I interpret through a simple and modern style. There is both symmetry and asymmetry present within the design, allowing a pleasing and un-bound design to mark my brand and title as a progress through my knowledge bases and career paths.
Elaborate Pieces
Above is my final production for my Level 3 Extended Diploma in Art and Design. In this final unit I focused in the armour and symbolisms of such within different cultures, with my favourite of these being the Japanese Culture. From this I professionally honed my modern style and design, using a dual technique of digital and analogue work in order to create the final image.
Above also featured within my final project for my Level 3 Extended Diploma in Art and Design. This completely digitally designed piece was a homage toward the cultural ideologies of Japan, and their use of colour within traditional tattoos, with subliminal hidden meanings between each, as well as the depicted animal or daemon featuring similar connotations, which was widely used as a judge of a person character within Ancient Japanese Tradition.
The piece above also was within my studies toward my final unit for my Level 3 Extended Diploma in Art and Design. For this piece I looked toward the line art style of working, being fully digitally designed for maximum clarity and detail. I also chose a different style of armour and weapon to fit within my research, featuring a shorter sword of Japanese Design. Alongside this is also completed an alternate version, changing up the natural pink leaves which imitated the Japanese Peach tree and changing the tonality of the piece, allowing blues throughout the scope, which I believe bright a broader range to the overall artwork.
Photoshop Designs
From the limited amount of photoshop work that I have saved from my years working on the application, the three below are some of my proudest achievements, with the technicality and overall creativity of the edits allow for a great interpretation and artistic expression. These edits also are very professional in export, with correct colour grading and oil paint style washed across each edits, allowing for the ideas and further ventures from these edits to flow further.
ANalouge Designs
Above are designs I did during a progressive part of my artistic journey, as I found the style that I liked and enjoyed creating, utilising the analogue materials of fine liners and biro pens, which allowed for the application of both colour and mono tones; as well as creating immense detail within these designs. Within the future these can only be progressed forwards and applied into different portraits and contexts.
Old Artwork (the Training phase)
Below is a collection of my Oldest Artwork, mostly from my secondary school eras of design, as i built up my core elements and theory within art and design.
