I worked pretty hard on my contest entry. First, I made a 3D model of the Kindle:
From the model, I created this illustration, which will be lasered on a Kindle, should I win.
Currently, I’m #1.
Though I still disagree with you that paper books are dead, …cool design. I voted.
Umm, when did I say paper books are dead?
I have said that they’re expensive, bulky, difficult-to-maintain, and other things, but I’ve never proclaimed their death.
Thank you for voting.
What really tickles me about this design are the few books laid out haphazardly to the bottom right of the drawing. The argument that paper books are dead/alive will rage for another century I’m sure but one must always hold onto what they represent and your design pays tribute to this.
Word. How the books were laid out on the bottom did it for me, also. Congrats, bro! I hope you win.
Learning will be manifest in many realms; love your work, dear nephew
i so enjoy your work. 🙂
