Q: What's the name of this drawing style

SéddikI need to know the name of this drawing style, i found a lot of them on dribbble and everywhere. Is there is any tutorials on how to make them?

02:39
^^ I would VTC that as unclear but it has a bounty now...
03:03
@ZachSaucier DV
Maybe a mod can kill it?
03:29
they can. I don't know if they'd be willing to though
 
6 hours later…
09:25
I'm hesitant

12:17
hiya
Yawp.
Affinity Photo is now on Windows
12:49
long time no see, people
i have a challenge for you
13:19
@Benteh she is alive
:D
:D
stupid thesis pretty much done
I understood as much. When will you defend?
not sure, some time early december
pretty sick of academia :D
I didn't catch that earlier :P
so n ow you are slacking off like a pro?
YES
13:24
great! :D
taking a ...errm.. week or two
to do nothing :D
so how are things here?!
a bit silent lately but otherwise good.
feel free to ping me, if there are q-s you think i might be able to answer
or just for a chat? :)
indeed!
but to go from head-stuck-in-thesis, and over to this kind of thing might need some pushing
:)
right now, just enjoying doing nothing, and watching snow fall
13:26
relaxing.
hey Benteh!
@JohnB! my man!
:D
how are you?
crippled! I sprained my ankle and it looks like the Michelin Man
other than that I'm good
oooh
pain?
only when I'm awake
13:30
aarruugg :(
it's not so bad, just annoying. I have a bad habit of spraining ankles
stop doing that
i have missed you guys
likewise!
aqq
aww
what did you do? land in the wrong way?
13:31
exactly
climibing?
yeah
sports are hazardous. that's why I don't do them :P
probably about a 5 meter fall but onto padding flooring
13:32
... a friend of mine snapped his hamstring climbing...
hoho
o.o
ouch! :O
ouch
how do you fall 15'? Weren't you on a rope?
freeclimbing or idiot partner?
13:33
well, sport climbing but I guess it was technically a solo free climb. I fell as I was clipping the rope in to the second anchor, which is the worst time to fall. So the rope basically did nothing to arrest my fall
gotcha
that would be scary as shit
eh, I've fallen enough times to not let it get to me. But most times I've fallen I've had the rope catch me which helps reduce fright :)
I'm hoping to be back at it by next week, this didn't bother me
ah, I get it. Yeah, that's bad timing
good
I'm just happy it's not a hand injury. I can bounce back from a stiff foot, but if you injure your hands while climbing then you're gonna be out for a while
13:38
indeed
they don't heal quickly
are you working or taking sick days?
I took a sick day yesterday but I'm back today using an umbrella as a cane :D
I expect it to be back to 100% before the weekend is over
haha
brilliant
bond villain with suspicious umbrella and fake limp
I could probably get a nice deal on some discount Halloween makeup to add in a facial scar to complete the package
13:41
:D
fake white cat
hahaha
cigar
weird glasses
purple hat
anything else new?
I met lady Y last week, she sends regards
13:50
aaaaaaahhhh
surely it was not last week? or again?!
hi @Benteh
hi @joojaa!
i survived academia! :)
@Benteh it was last week.
and that was the second time we met. We live relatively close now :)
aha! that explains it
i thought my head was completely fried..
by academia? figures :P
13:57
haha
god, it is a weird place... a parallel world and a goldfish bowl
design in informatics == engineering thinking
==... depressing
d'aww
now you can go for the uplifting world of art and data visualisation again
funny thing the other day.. an EU project, an artist community-thing visiting the uni
they do ...you know,.. digital art, projections, sound, kinekt etc
EVERY ONE of the informatics students and lecturers were there to "help out"
i.e. with the tech
making themselves busy, finding duct tape, extention cords etc
@Benteh good, I didnt succeed to leave academia though
NOT ONE of them considered the art / performance
kinda depressing
not you joojaa
the art thing
@joojaa i thought you worked in academia? as in, you know, proper job??
heya @Benteh
14:02
hi @Ryan! how are you doing?
Doing well! And yourself?
pretty much finished thesis
DONE with academia
Oooh congratulations
Have big things lined up?
hahah
right now, watching snow fall
doing nothing
taking a little break
That sounds really really nice
14:08
@Benteh no i worked then not worked then again worked though i did try hard to get out
I haven't seen snow in years
I am now a workshop master for the school of arts
@Ryan wow...
@joojaa that sounds like both great and not great
@joojaa access to all the machinery is probably pretty fab
?
Well i am currently buying the machinery so...
it doesnt snow where I live and even the few trips Ive taken in cold months didnt see any snow. Last time I saw any, and it was very very little was in 2014. Just some light flurries, nothing on the ground
14:11
exactly!
But the workshop wont be finished until 2018
i would looove to have access to all the stuff they have down at the school of architecture and design...
@Ryan ...its overrated :P
So i am currently looking at CAD drawings of floorplans and screeaming "I need a sink there!"
HAHA
14:13
Well yeah, i doo have nice stuff, but i am not allowed to talk about that since it sounds like boasting
It causes @ryan discomfort
@Ryan outside my dorr
door
Yeah we also have a lot of snow here
why are you talking about me exactly Joojaa?
14:15
@joojaa my uni is a bit snooty, so the "tangible design"-thing is a bit underdeveloped..
@Ryan You told me not to talk about the equipment i have at my workplace
I don't recall that conversation ever taking place
I recall that you teld me that i can not go around saying that i have 3 spare cintixes in my office that i dont know where to put.
But thats is sorted now
laser cutters?
@Benteh WOW! That would be so nice to wake up to for a while. A few days, weeks, even months I'd be happy to see that
14:22
@Benteh yeah we have laser cutters
@Ryan i will get tired of it ..
oy @DᴀʀᴛʜVᴀᴅᴇʀ
salutes @DᴀʀᴛʜVᴀᴅᴇʀ
@joojaa if i send you phenomenal designs, will you cut it for me ;)
hi @DᴀʀᴛʜVᴀᴅᴇʀ
14:24
@Benteh long time, hope you've been well
@Benteh you no longer have access to the one at uni?
fact: i have been awful, now i am goooooooood
citation for that fact?
source?
publication?
@Vincent problem is, it is ENTIRELY dependent on one guy being nice, not telling another guy, that there is no one else there, that first guy has time, that second and third guy is not using it...
@Benteh hmm... i dont think the cutter in FABLAB is operational yet and the one in the metalworking shop is still disconnected
But yeah sure if the materials cost is not too big.
14:25
...I have access to a 3D printer ;)
I have access to 20
hahaha
i have some pretty class ideas for laser cutting
like i said thay have one at the library one street form my home
there are some makersspaces here
i might get into that
costs 70 cents to print for 4 hours
14:26
now that i have TIMMMEEE
wooha
far out
i have all this class ideas for engraving and cutting, but bet it would take me weeks to create the files..
when i get rich...
@Vincent which type?? I've been looking at one
@Vincent get me a 3D printer for christmas, lol
@DᴀʀᴛʜVᴀᴅᴇʀ felixprinters.com/products the FELIX3
I share an office with two architects who like to print their own maquettes
@Vincent oh that is awesome
do you make stuff, @Vincent ?
14:41
@Benteh nope, I'm having enough challenges in two dimensions as is :P
haha
3d not easy
or rather; 3d easy, good 3d not
do you do personal projects, @joojaa ?
15:15
I think Im addicted to coffee now. I have 6 brands to try out and all whole bean.. That said I also own two coffee grinders now =P
hahahah
obsession
well, as long as you are addicted to quality, not quantity
15:49
@PieBie you do app design right?
my sakura pens were destroyed in the mail....won 20 euro on the lottery though. Silver lining lol
hey @johnp where's that design you wanted to show off?
Oh the book spread? I decided to just stick with it till it's done which should be tomorrow or so
I saw ur mesg in the other chatroom but that room died in the winter wind :3
Then let me revive it a bit
is everyone ok to revive it? When it wasn't getting used I just kind of let it die...in my usual wicked way
16:02
It's there
@johnp I would kindof like it here, I think it would be great. I didnt understand why we had another room
it auto-revives when you start using it again
did we do it so others good book it or see what was going on?
yeah? I just didnt want to cause a distraction to the regulars here when discussing site stuff, etc. I dont mind either way!
well, because critique discussions could get in the way of usual traffic here.
16:04
need to add it to my favorites then, lol
it's still frozen for me @Vincent is there something I need to do?
@johnp link, I will look

 The Looking Glass

A room to share your art and offer feedback. Everyone is welcome.
Ah sry
I unfroze it
Cool thanks :)
16:08
good now, lol
mods / owners can still post, but others can't
a mod / owner needs to unfreeze it
stores flamethrower
lol
yeah, why?
I do remember it getting crowded a couple years ago with regular chat and critique together
Working on some typesetting and like always one of my first steps is glancing around for inspiration---came across this:
617
Q: Showcase of beautiful typography done in TeX & friends

wishihadabetternameIf you were asked to show examples of beautifully typeset documents in TeX & friends, what would you suggest? Preferably documents available online (I'm aware I could go to a bookstore and find many such documents called 'books'). Extra bonus for documents whose LaTeX source is available. This i...

If they allow that than should we allow our own showcase question?
16:22
Where do people find their typesetting inspiration these days...There's pinterest but most posts dont focus on the finer aspects
@johnp I go to the sites. like typowolf
libraries and used bookstores are pretty good places
sometimes when planning a website I will browse there and use something in my mood board
for a site that states he gets a million page views Im surprised he doesn't have ads to help pay for that bandwidth
Yeah typewolf is a good place to find new fonts
Id like to see more creative use of paragraph settings, etc but aside from buying more books I dont see much around
I love font pairing, wanted to create a site but didn't have the time to figure out how to render the font instead of using it as an image.
16:29
@Ryan Affinity Photo beta is on Windows now
oooh cool Ill have to see if it works on my work computer. Affinity Illustrator needed other things to be installed so decided not to
@DᴀʀᴛʜVᴀᴅᴇʀ you rang?
I talked to someone about app design, and a friend wanted to start a project and wants app integration so I was wanting to research in app design for iOS and Android
app design or app development? I mostly do app dev
17:00
I will have to look at both. Probably just the design and then pass it
 
2 hours later…
19:27
soo tired
meow
@Ryan 2nd that one.. how you've been?
busy, busy, and more busy
need more vacation
I thought you had a lot of time built up?
my year ends October 26. Reset my vacation time and got the rest paid out
19:36
nice you should have enough to buy mac stuff
actually got it today since tomorrow is federal holiday, looks like I had 17 days left so 10 rolled over and 7 were paid out
i went to the Mac store over the weekend hoping they had the new one in. They only had the 13" without Touch Bar
I really want to try that Touch Bar
now im doing something Im terrible at---trying to design a logo
20:12
want any help @ryan -oh
charging?
lol you pay in Ben & Jerry's ?
turns out I didn't win the lotto earlier (such a let-down :D )
Making a 20th Anniversary logo for us
us?
company i work for
20:16
I see
Industry? or selling points?
not sure what you mean
for the logo, company
that doesnt explain what "industry? or selling points?" means :\
what industry does this company operate in, and what are their selling points/offerings to their target audience
vehicle identification for gated properties
20:20
cool I may do a few doodles to test my pens...most of them seem to have burst in the post
21:09
@Ryan it's a tough one...have like one or two ideas but they might be a bit cringey...hard to draw by hand though
would love to see them
haha well ill describe them for now! they play on the gate idea which might not be what you want...if you have a 2 and a 0 beside eachother, but facing toward the viewer in perspective like two gates that might be nice
i did a really cringey doodle of a horizontal of a 2 overlapping a 0 with a barrier pattern thumbs.dreamstime.com/z/…
you could have a simple 0 with a diagonal with that pattern also...better in black and white i think + negative space maybe
thats where I'm at so far :\
21:39
hmm the first one looks interesting
im just testing my pens now ill send one sketch in a sec
this is really not my strong suit at all. Might be working on it more at home to try to get it done
mine neither lol (remember my personal one?) though i do sometimes enjoy them in a puzzley kinda way
you're much better than me. Those name ones were good
Mine aren't at all and then I'm not that great at digitizing stuff like this either
i spent ages on that project though, went through about 5 different concepts
 
1 hour later…
23:19
sorry, no mojo tonight :(
Playing with a gate barrier stroke/pattern might be nice...or perspective (as in open gates)
