I missed Vijay’s Figma recreations! A great illustration of the Sony Walkman, full of little details and textures. “Most of the shapes are created using primitive shapes with shadows and blend modes.”

A new free and open-source illustration collection from Pablo Stanley: “Transhumanism has always fascinated me. It’s a philosophical movement that challenges our understanding of human limitations and our potential to transcend them. It holds the belief that we can evolve beyond our current physical and mental restraints by integrating technology into our very being. It’s about pushing the boundaries of what it means to be human, embracing the fusion of biology and technology, and envisioning a future where we’re no longer constrained by our natural form.”

Vijay Verma made a photo-realistic illustration of the Nintendo Switch console with 150+ primitive shapes, inner shadows, and gradients.

Amazing animated illustration of a typewriter by Samarth Jajodia.

Vijay recreated a Fujifilm X100V camera using mostly primitive shapes with shadows and gradients. As a Fuji shooter since the days of X-T1, I love seeing his attention to detail in this illustration! See this thread for his tips on creating a metal pattern and a camera texture.

A new tutorial from Vijay Verma on creating an animation for a loader indicator shaped like a glass filled with liquid. The prototype uses a few variables and conditions, and he shares them in the cheat sheet in the thread.

“Hippo is a plugin to create stunning vector illustrations and web assets right in Figma, thanks to AI. It’s made to be easy to use, with 22 handpicked styles tailored for the web – no prompt engineering required. It can also vectorize or edit any image with AI.”

Vijay Verma is killing it with another movie-inspired artwork. Don’t miss the closeup details.

A really cool glowing effect made by Samarth Jajodia, likely with a combination of the blur effect and color blend modes. Check out his other experiments as well.
