David Carson - Beautiful Mess

A few of Carson's designs while doing research.
My pick for making a poster of my own.
Instead of advertising for Pepsi, we'll be advertising for ourselves. These are some of my reference images.
Failure.
Take 2, this time with a less professional picture.
It was a really long process (3 hours?), but it was something I never tried before and it was honestly a different experience. I might make more of these...they're so addictive and fun. So many different patterns to try out...
There's a lot of space between the typeface for my hair, but that's because I have thin hair. hahaha, yeah....
My sketch.
Final. For the jumbled up words at the top left corner, it's all set up manually, through thousands of alt+arrow key and hundreds of realigning and rekerning.
Shoulders cry in anguish and pain.
