Christmas Cards, Destructoid Style
ThunderHeartXI | 5:22 PM on 12.18.2008 13 comments


For my photography class, strangely enough, my class was charged with the task of making Christmas (or holiday, however it is that you roll) cards out of linoleum sheets that would be used later as stamps of sorts. It was an assignment that was easy enough, but myself and my friend had trouble coming up with a design that we liked. Eventually it hit me that I wanted to do something in the style of Mr. Destructoid, and so I got to work. The idea of a Christmas themed Mr. Destructoid also influenced my friends design. So without further ado, I present to you, on your left, Reindeertoid, and on your right, Santatoid.



Reindeertoid is the creation of my friend, while Santatoid is my own design. I think I got pretty ripped off when it came to my linoleum sheet, seeing as how I had to glue it to a piece of unusually thick wood making it was difficult to produce an adequate print of my image. But I'm just whining now.

Now here's a close up of my friend's Reindeertoid:



Here's a close-up of Santatoid:



I wanted to ink and scan in my original drawing of Santatoid, it's a much better drawing then it is a linoleum print, but I'm too tired and/or lazy to do so. Perhaps I will be able to fit it in around my insane gaming schedule during the holiday break.

 about me



Playstation Network ID: ThunderHeartXI

Hello World,

I be a young Canadian gamer, initially unable to experience the wonders of older games beyond that of the Nintendo 64, but I am learning to love the fantastic world of the old school. I keep to myself, mostly because I'm so bloody lazy, but believe me when I have a good thing I will show it off. Though I rarely have a case to show off, you'll see it when it comes up.

As for favourite games, I'll attempt to rattle a few off of my rice paper like mind:
Half-Life series
Banjo-Kazooie/Tooie
Okami
Portal
Beyond Good & Evil
Sam & Max
Ico
Shadow of the Colossus
Psychonauts
Metal Gear Solid series

Cheers to gamers everywhere,
ThunderHeartXI
