World Collabs #3 Submission

Abduzeedo's World Collabs #3 submission by Mat MacQuarrie

My Little Signalnoise, Mat MacQuarrie

The lovely fellows at Abduzeedo launched a new monthly contest for designers looking to explore the methods of some of their favourite designers. Designers are asked to submit an original incomplete design piece, and it’s up to the participants to complete the work. The contest is open to anyone and this third installment featured none other than Canadian Colour-Wheeler and design broadcaster, James White of Signalnoise.

I tried to approach this design as if James and I were working on this together. During his weekly broadcasts, he often addresses his inspiration being toys and characters from his favourite childhood cartoons, comics and videogames so that was going to be my approach. I wanted to feature something very common from the early 80’s that could work well with the rainbow flare style James uses.

I guess picking Voltron or Heman would have been more accurate to something James would draw inspiration from, but where’s the fun in that? My Little Pony, let’s roll out.

Be part of the creative-chat every Thursday at 3pm EST on the Signalnoise Broadcast.
