Wallpaper Wednesday — No. 13

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.

A Penguin New Year

I had this idea the other day for a wide-eyed pen­guin that just stares you down. I put him togeth­er and brushed the whole thing using some water­color brush­es from Bit­tbox. I played with a cou­ple of dif­fer­ent type treat­ments for him to say some­thing about enjoy­ing the new year, but I never found any­thing I real­ly liked. (That’s why the I’m a day late!) He needs a name, so leave a sug­ges­tion in the comments.
