On the first Wednesday of every month, I’m going to pull together some inspirations and resources I have around and make some sweet desktop wallpapers. It’s usually just going to be one or two at a time. They will be all over the place, from type related to whatever cool pattern I might be digging at the moment. As always, let me know what you like or if there is something you want to see.
Melville and Miltonian
I showed off Miltonian last month and its been stewing in my head to do something with it. I started in the tattoo direction but after playing with it for a bit that seemed to cliche. Working off the tattoo heart idea, then for some reason sailors — which led to Moby Dick — all to end up with this. A shout out goes to Bittbox and the awesome textures put out over there. The starting point for the background texture came from a freebie over there. Go check it out.
