This was the guy that started it all. I did him as an icon experiment in Adobe Illustrator back in 2006. I was trying to keep it as simple as possible and played with the blending modes of the various layers. I was pleased with the way it came out so I tried some other monsters in the same rectangular format. That didn’t work out. The format fought me all the way, and never went too much further than the sketch stage. I deserted the notion until recently when I fired up Affinity Designer and proceeded to doodle. The new software and 10 years seemed to make the difference.
Truth be told, I did bring this 10-year old Illustrator file into Affinity Designer to resize it and to place the watermark in order to match the others.
