eye see you, the eyes have it, and other eye puns

I’ve been working on making body parts. Hold on! That sounds creepy, but really its just that I want to have all the little bits of people I draw in Illustator all the time ready to go so I don’t start from scratch each time. Perhaps this is lazy and I will get tired of simply tweaking things to get the desired effect, but I think it is a good exercise in creating a range of emotions for my characters.

So, first step eyes of course! I’m starting quite simply, doing a few basic poses, emotions, and colors and I’ll work from there! Ideally, I’d like to make another Flash dress up site where you can build your own person.

Stay tuned for more eyes and perhaps a few noses (if I’m feeling quite daring) in the near future. Eyediós!*

*Yikes bikes, I thought I would come up with a better eye pun exit by the end of this post. :D

Fashionology: Dressing Up With History

This is a game for those particularly keen on fashion and history.* I built this dress up game for a class last semester as a way to allow an audience to interact with information (fashion history) in a playful, personalized, and hands on way. To see the historical notes, simply roll over the outline of the clothing in use. Be sure to pick up your closet when you finish playing dress up!**

 

*Passionate dabblers may also apply.

**Actually this closet will clean itself up if you just hit refresh. Wait, this is brilliant, why doesn’t my closet work this way?!
