Creative South 2018 Soccer-Themed Badge

43/52

A year ago I attended Creative South for the first time and it drastically impacted me. The conference introduced me to countless amazing people. It’s just icing on the cake that they are incredible designers, too.

This 52 badge challenge began after being inspired at #CreativeSouth. One of my favorite memories from my first year at the conference was the @Super Team Deluxe vending machine filled with enamel pins. I bought my first pin (TARS by @Ben Stafford) and so began my obsession with enamel pins. I found it only fitting to house the badge in a vending machine.

For a year, I am challenging myself to become a better digital Illustrator. I’ll be posting weekly (my goal is each Sunday) and sketching & drawing daily. To give some context, I am marrying the idea with a passion of mine; soccer. I am going to create 52 soccer-styled badges with different themes along the way. I hope you enjoy seeing them.
