I wasn't sure where else to post this, but as it's Illustrator based I'll put it here. I have included example links & downloads. I've included .ai & .pdf format so you should also be able to open & use in Photoshop.

Most of the the projects I do, are based around "skinning" custom characters. I'm sure that's the right word. Although I am trying to expand into other design areas, & that was my reason for joining PSG.

I thought I'd share the main ones I have at the moment, in case anyone else would like to use them, or just have a go for fun. There are 2 types I have. A flat silhouette, that can be made into custom characters, & a template for a 3D paper Model. This one is skinned digitally, then printed & built. Basically Urban Papercraft.

Genetically Altered - Example

Not all art has to be work.. so have fun. If you have any questions please ask. Also, if you do a digital custom, & would like to share it on SPWA, that would be awesome. :)
 
I saw your examples and templates. But I couldn't understand about anything, apologizes. I downloaded template it appears to install. Should I install that, what will happen if I install those template ?? What is the purposes, how I will be benefited by these ??? :frown:
 
Sorry you didn't understand. Not sure what you mean by Installing them. The templates are templates for a model.. you open it, you add graphics, you print on 160g paper, & you build it.. No benefits, It's just fun.

It's extremely popular. I get around 4000 hits every month from all over the world, but I guess it's whether you would consider that fun or not.

Same with the the Ai file. If you find a use for them, great. I personally use them for character design, like the example shows.
 
I have no clue what that is to be honest. I've never seen it before. There should be no install.. it's just a standard pdf, and a standard .ai file. Once unzipped, you should be able to just right click the pdf, and open with Photoshop. I just double checked the pdf my side with Photoshop.

Apologies that it's giving you hassle.
