A spread from Book of Masks, a book featuring all the masks from Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, illustrated by @frayed-symphony.bsky.social. This spread focuses on the Great Fairy's Mask, the left hand page having a small description for it with the mask name in big letters. The right hand page features artwork of Link from the back, surrounded by fairies, at the top a gradient circle in pink shining upon him.
The left hand page has a description of the Couple's Mask along with the name in big letters. The right hand page features artwork of Link, each mask in a hand, arms crossed, with a shadow behind him. Above his head are two overlapping circles.
The ending spread for the book, featuring the Majora's Mask artwork but in monochrome, dithered.
The final spread features a bunch of concepts and sketches from the illustrator of each of the masks featured.
Few of my favorite spreads from Book of Masks by @frayed-symphony.bsky.social ๐

I designed this book!!! Was a super fun project to work on - as soon as frayed told me she's wanting to put this set of art as a book, I knew I had to give a hand and push it a little further ๐

I made my friends do the Mike fight in DELTARUNE Ch3+4 for me.
Please enjoy a highlight of
@crescentfool.bsky.social trying their best :D

An image of a hand holding three zines in yellow, magenta, and cyan. The cover features a hard drive with the sticker on it instead describing the zine, titled "10 years of digital stuff".
The yellow cover variant of the zine, laid out flat, with a couple of spreads from the inside below. The middle spread is full of small text, while the bottom spread has the text "in no particular order or importance" with a Tree Map of file types next to it.
The magenta cover variant of the zine, laid out flat, with a couple of spreads from the inside below. The middle spread has a screenshot from minecraft along with a server log to the right. The bottom spread has a big text saying "[..] REALLY NEED TO KEEP THIS?" and "oh it's the sentimentality."
The cyan cover variant of the zine, laid out flat, with a couple of spreads from the inside below. The middle spread is a section spred about where files are stored as a creative, while the bottom spread is a mosaic of screenshots with the text "that were backed up in 5 places by accident" across.
Following a long overdue digital cleaning, I've made a zine reflecting on the files I've had on my computer over the past 10 years!

Zine workshop result!!
Made a zine about print production because, of course I would. It was so fun though and I'm so glad I lucked out with the given materials!

Xenoblade Compendium / layout
When @kamaniki.art asked me if I wanted to design for an artbook, I said: "yes, but only if the artists can submit pieces in whatever format they like, so I can put it all together like a puzzle."
I think it turned out pretty well. ๐ #lainesdesigned #editorialdesign
cover draft #2 - book cover with a sleeve that has the X die cut, revealing the illustrated cover underneath - illustration (placeholder at the moment) something that brings all the games together with the blue-green overlay/palette
cover draft #3 - book cover with a sleeve same as previous draft, but shorter in height than the book - illustration (placeholder at the moment) something that brings all the games together with the blue-green overlay/palette - UV spot on the sleeve with big letters spanning the entire spread of the book
when drafting the cover I did explore a few options, so here's some what-ifs of what it could have looked like!
Two copies of Xenoblade Chronicles Compendium side by side, one with the dust jacket off, the other with the dust jacket on. The former book's cover is light colored with the artwork done by @kamaniki.art visible in it's full, featuring key elements from each Xenoblade game on a green-cyan background, while the latter is bright red with a green-blue gradient in an X shape, and a white C in the middle, the cover artwork still semi-visible, but now overlaid with color, on a white background.
A copy of the book, with the dust jacket half-way on, highlighting the semi-transparency color overlay effect.
An image focusing on the spine of the book. It reads "xenoblade chronicles compendium compendium / a fan project".
Another photo of the dust jacket half-off the book cover, this time from a different angle.
Xenoblade Compendium / cover
designing covers isn't my favorite thing, but i do have fun exploring print production possbilities ... ๐ the dust jacket turned out even better than I expected!

a small sneak peek of my (wip) portfolio homepage #lainesdesigned
the xenoblade chronicles compendium book, sleeve slightly off to show the semi-transparency. cover artwork done by Kamaniki @kamaniki.art)
two spreads showing off the section design, the one for xenoblade 1 in particular. the section artwork (done by Kamaniki (@kamaniki.art)) has a gradient on the right side with a massive 1, while the introduction spread is bright red on the left, with the text "beginning", and artwork by Klume (@klumescribbles.bsky.social)
a spread showcasing an artwork of Lora from xenoblade 2: the golden country done by Nithros (@nithros.bsky.social), the left side in a bright red with big text saying "memories"
A page at the end of the book indexing each artist credit, tied to a small number next to each artwork in the book for ease of access.

the project where I got to give it my all and the result turned out just as I imagined. thank you to all the artists who were open to work with my layout ideas, you were the best! ๐งก

Intro slide for a concept for a book collecting experiences of the Gaming subculture in Latvia, on the right showing a concept cover with red, blue, green and yellow.
VIDEO GAMES IN LATVIA To explore and capture the different experiences of the Gaming community in Latvia The beginnings, the recent years, everything in between A wide range of people interviewed for content, from enthusiast to gamedev to event organizer (and others!) (to the right of the text is a moodboard of various inspirations for the book, featuring excerpts from old gaming magazines as well as other similar books focused on video game culture)
A slide showing the timeline of the book being from the 1980s to modern day, with each of the colors: red, blue, green, yellow being assigned to different type of people interviewed -- enthusiasts, gamedevs, event organizers & other respectively. The visual concept of the book relies on each memory & story shared being captured in a pixel all of it coming together to tell the history of the Latvian gaming community.
Mock ups of each section's beginning pages, each assigned its own color with a diecut.
gonna impromptu share this concept of a book i did for school last year ... honestly looking back on this. this is so cool and i hope it will be real. someday. i hope. (i designed like 70 pages of it even though the assignment only asked for 20. LOL)

Before I let my good inspiration vibes from yesterday pass and forget to post, here's one of my fave book projects I've had the pleasure designing for! It is about Latvia's most significant cultural tradition - the Song and Dance Festival.

i decided to document my experience building a keyboard from scratch for the first time, so you can do better than i did :')

A photo of the postcard design in the Xeno tarot deck set.
Last year I got to create the visual identity for the Xeno Tarot Project! It was a challenging one due to me not particularly having much experience with Tarot, but it turned out very nicely I think.
(also got to experiment a bit when photographing the set, but I'm no pro lol)

And a quick timelapse of the zine contents here as well with all the beautiful fanworks by the contributors! #lainesdesigned

Another fanzine project I designed for, this time for #FFXIV. This one was definitely a bit more of an experimental one for mewith the idea that I don't want to reference in-game graphics - was a fun challenge!

Still one of my fave fandom projects I've had the pleasure to design for, things just really fit into place perfectly and the passion for the game from all the contribs was amazing ๐งก
