I've been taking Graphic Design. Twice a week after work. Our assignment is to do a new identity for AT&T. Between my office job, Hubski, and this class I'm a bit behind and haven't had the time I've really wanted to dedicate to it yet. I was actually excited to turn the internet off and some work done last night but the universe had other plans.

This is where I was when Reddit took over Hubski last night. :) From here i need to neaten it up, figure out whats going on with the right leg, get the gradients right, do a color study, figure out type, and throw it all together. Process, man. Process.
