Myself: illustration student looking for inspiration about unique illustration styles and websites to sell my work. I learned about Red Nose Studio through a teacher telling me I would like their 3D works. I immediately loved the wood-like texture in the illustrations and how all of their work is very consistent despite using very different materials. The purposefully designed logo on the website also depend on my recognition of the studio.
