I was commissioned by Squid & Weazy through a recommendation from a mutual friend. They are gamers who create content for YouTube. The guys wanted me to create them a t-shirt design based around their love of Battlefield. They troll and make genuinely funny videos for their channel. The brief was to incorporate both of the guys in their full army uniforms in a 'back to back' pose, with one looking serious and the other not, both equipped with their choice of weapon. I was given a free reign with this design but i sent the guys various sketches and images throughout it's production to make sure they liked where i was headed. The t-shirt is available to buy now.

After the t-shirt commission the guys asked if i would create them a logo to use across social media. I wanted to include both of their names into a single icon which could then be used as an overlay for their video content if needed. After some initial sketches i decided on the idea of having a squid wearing a gask mask.
