In the early 2010s I was experimenting a lot with minimalistic voxel art, sometimes combined with typography, because the voxel style is very suitable for graphic design.

🧵 Having rediscovered my old voxel style by posting those works, I had fun creating this new isometric pixel art. 🏴‍☠️

Used #MagicaVoxel by @ephtracy for the voxel basis, then @PyDPainter for pixel refinements.

🧵 Showdown at the Voxel Corral.

One of my earliest "voxel" works, made in the mid-2000s by extruding quadrangular polygons in 3ds Max, before Minecraft and voxel editors existed.

I was an illustrator for various printed magazines at the time, and loved to experiment with styles (still do).

🧵 Voxel-style 3D logo for the Technabob tech news site, made in the early 2010s.

The character was their 2D logo, derived from the 1980 Berzerk video game. They wanted to have a 3D version of it.

When it comes to logos I'm a proponent of clear 2D design, but the voxel style kept it minimalistic.
