Share your own design using some crusty techniques!

Feel free to mix all the techniques to push it as far as you can like Draplin did in class, or just apply a little bit of crust to add a slightly rougher look to your signature style. We’d love to see the different steps along the way as you try out Draplin’s signature scrizz techniques!

Some details we’d love to hear:

What experiments did you try along the way that didn’t make it into your final design?
Which crusty techniques were your favorite?
How do you think you’ll apply this to your creative work moving forward?
