Recent thumbnail I made for Client Title: “I Risked $50,000 Across America In 50 Days” The whole focus was a realistic gambling vlog look with a challenge-style feel. The creator is riding a horse at Churchill Downs while placing a real horse bet, and the client wanted it to look believable and polished, like a captured moment instead of a typical composite. DM’s are open for new projects📩 #thumbnail #thumbnaildesign #YouTube #photoshop #designer

Recent thumbnail I made for Client Title: “I Bet $1000 in 50 States in 50 days (Episode 2)” The goal was a realistic gambling-style vlog thumbnail that had to look perfect. I built the scene around a worn-out player at the slot machine, with the cash stack and casino in the background, and focused on natural lighting and clean details so it feels like a real captured moment instead of an obvious composite.

Recent thumbnail i made for the Weekly Challenge #50 @thumbnails_101 Title: "We Found The 5 Deadliest Ancient Weapons" Realism and brutalism as the core direction — ancient double-bitted axe, crested helmet, period costume. Sketch through to final design. Focused on improving storytelling, perspective, and realism. Feedback is appreciated.

Recent thumbnail I made for Client Title: "I became a viral streamer to "prove its not luck" The whole focus was pushing realism and a cinematic feel as far as they'd go and make both scenes feel like real, captured moments instead of a typical composite.

Practice thumbnail made for Isaac Carlton Title: "I Recreated Star Wars Out of Cardboard" Three variations are shown here, each built around a different moment from the set: a chase through the ruins with the ship, the bridge and lava pit scene and the lightsaber duel. This is my own version, not commissioned. Focused on improving storytelling, perspective, and realism. Feedback is appreciated. DM's are open for new projects📩. #thumbnail #thumbnaildesign #thumbnails #YouTube #photoshop #design #designers #StarWarsDay #DIYCrafts #Starwars

Original vs. My Version Same concepts, leveled-up execution. 📈Reimagined these original thumbnails to give them a lot more energy, tension, and depth. Really happy with how these turned out! Personal practice pieces — not commissioned, just redesigning existing concepts my way. Which redesign is your favorite? Let me know below!👇 #thumbnail #thumbnaildesign #YouTube #photoshop #designer #thumbnails
