This guy knows how to do a sponsor, instead of making us skip it he actually makes it part of the process and it isn’t shoved in your face. Love your work, this was a great thing to wake up to!

Brandon coming back after 2 months is like a Santa coming every once in a while to bless us

The photoshop skills. The video editing skills. The artistry. The creativity in terms of content. The man has it all in spades.

Love the iDonut😂Also thanks for letting me contribute with the LEGO figure! The finished design looked awesome, kinda reminds me of the packaging LEGOs 18+ line up has with the darker backgrounds

The wendys one looks insane! The font is literally amazing. Its perfect!

I refuse to believe there is a better logo designer than Brandon

Again dude- so good!!

That iDonut turned into an amogus real fast 💀5:33

That Nintendo one was extremely clever ^^. I was really surprised when you didn’t just slap Mario’s face on the can, something I could absolutely see Nintendo doing haha

Fair play to you for committing to painting the Wendys mascot. As always, fantastic video. The effort you put in is very admirable.

The Wendy Quaker oats combo is mind blowing! You need to pass on your godly photoshop skills with a paid course more specifically focused on layer styles, painting, text effects, etc

This dude is unbelievable. All brands should hire him immediately to redesign their logos

6:33 the sketch of the iDonut had me sweating bullets trying not to think about amongus donut ;-; my brain is broken

9:30 if that's a thing I am 100% buying it. looks sick

Not only an amazing graphic designer. You’re insane at painting!

The random bits and jokes that are said just as seriously as all the technical process parts always catch me off guard 😂 Amazing video once again. I'm sure that Wendys portrait and the other photo edits, drawings, and compositions took FOREVER to make. Results were worth it 👏

This is some of the best content on KZfaq. You're a great artist but, even more so, you have a very creative mind...you come up with fantastic concepts!

The fact that I was looking for new videos from Brandon like an hour ago just makes me laugh.

7:10 actually nintendo / gamefreak collab with people to add pokemon to their toothpaste in japan, also there are japanese snacks with pokemon and other nintendo characters, but mainly from the 90's like link

7:00 i can think of several. Pokémon and Mario Oreos, Pokémon cookies, Mario cereal

These are great as always. That 7-Up X Nintendo soda is great. Seeing anything Nintendo that isn't just a game is always fun. LEGO X Captain Morgan is also really fun to see.

7:17 he explained who mario is perfectly 😂

Attention to details, like putting the 7up logo under the mascot that casts his shadow on the letters makes your designs exceptional

8:10 so what youre saying is that, basically, 7up was like crystal pepsi but backwards

Using the reference of 1up to collaborate with the 7Up brand is pure genius! Loved every single one of these, but the Nintendo x 7Up takes the cake. Amazing job!!

One of the most underrated youtube channels i've subscribed to. Keep it up Brandon!

I can't believe 7UP and Nintendo never really did this collab, it's so perfect!! I hope you patented that idea... 👀 haha

Your quality keeps getting better, even though I thought it wasn't able to improve anymore. Not only your designs, the video techniques too. Really enjoyable to watch

Everyone can learn storytelling and KZfaq from this guy. Just the bit that starts at 0:16 for example. You've found a way to make something most people would never watch (graphic design vids) into viral great content.

This man actually shows himself using the app he is sponsored by. Not a lot of people do that, so I respect him. Also if you read this, what drawing tablet do you use?

Fun fact: the Quaker Oats guy is a real guy named William Penn who lived from 1644 - 1718. They put him on the Quaker Oats container because where he colonized they grew a lot of grain, wheat, and oats. They name came from the group William Penn was the leader of that was called The Quakers because they would literally shake (quake) whenever god was mentioned.

What I really love in Brandon's videos is that we get to watch his thinking process clearly. That is something you don't see in any other channel.

brandon's wendys quaker illustration is absolutely gorgeous, hes such an amazing artist!!

This is STAGGERINGLY well done. And also a good example of why designers with actual art skill go SUPER far in graphic design and related fields. I have over a decade of professional experience, but there is just a level I will never reach artistically since I literally can only draw at a shitty stick-figure level lol. I am super envious of people like this who have actual artistic skill/vision on a higher level!

Brandon, your videos should all be 3 hours long! SO good to watch and always leave viewers wanting to see more! Amazing work!

Plot Twist: He changed the title of this video 5 times

Loving your videos! I've got a bit of a noobish question. When you design graphics for circular products, like a soda can, you usually have to make some tweaks for the mockup. For example, you have the slight bend in the "Lemon & Lime" text to give the illusion that the graphics are actually wrapping around the soda can mockup. Do you have to create a 2nd version of the design without those tweaks when it comes to actually having these physically printed? Same goes for things like the subtle highlights on the gold border of the Lego Capt Morgan. They add to the realism of the mockup render, but I imagine they need to be removed for real printing templates.

My mind wss kinda blown when you painted that photo-realistic portrait with just the simple circlet brush... just wow

I’m always checking to see when there is a new video by Brandon because he is by far one of the most enjoyable people to watch, and his logo designs are unreal. Even the simplest thing, like talking about your sponsor. I can’t believe I’m saying this but he makes the minute dedicated to the sponsor actually fun to watch! Respect🙏🙏

That was insane! The amount of the work and skill is just in another level.

This guy is heavily underrated. He needs some major recognition. Keep up the good work!

you're the best in the game hands down - please leave the finished product on the screen for a bit longer!

Don't know if you take recommendations but I have an idea in mind that I would love to see. Designing the exterior of fast food joints(if you can/want to); examples below Burger King = Mediaeval Castle or Fortress Taco Bell = 1700s Spanish Mission Popeyes = Modern Day Louisiana

"Hench Wendy isn't real, she can't hurt you." Hench Wendy: 1:23

I hate so much that my gen z self immediately saw the donut and saw something…sustainable. Jokes aside, these brands are amazing! Gotta say my favorite one’s the Nintendo x 7-UP. The colors and style just go really well together. 10/10 once again, Brandon!

I'm so glad you're back, Brandon!! I love your designs + videos so much!!

0:07 damn! You made me search for that scene (its so funny 😂)

You are the most insane talented guy I have ever seen I can tell the effort and how long it took with all the detail on the designs don’t tell this full you he needed those 2 months so worth it you deserve All your success❤

Brandon: “Mario is Nintendo’s most popular character” *Shows a luigi game*

This is AMAZING! you make it look like it's super easy but I am sure it took you tons of time. great work as always.

all of your designs are so fresh looking. keep up the great work!

0:27 = Cedar Rapids, Iowa. I used to drive by that building daily. Whenever they'd be making Cap'n Crunch the whole downtown would smell like the cereal. It was the one pleasant smell in The City of Five Smells. Old friends and I used to skateboard at and near that place all the time. Anyway, these product edits are hilarious and well done. Coincidentally, the skateboard shop near that Quaker Oats factory did a mashup of their name (EduSkate) with the Sinclair gas station logo. Apparently, some people working for Sinclair saw the graphic and sent the shop some free goodies (not free gas, though).

Your videos and designs are INCREDIBLE! I want to be as good of a graphic designer as you when i get out of High school!

He can actually paint! I usually skip ads in videos but you actually kept me watching, will check it out cause I casually needed an app like that and I love to support your content. Keep it up Big B!

This man gives us the actual things, no sponsors, no BS, straight to what we want. You're awesome at this man! A special request, can you make a video on designing different Lay's flavor logos? That would be especially awesome!

Brandon is the definition of "worth the wait."

Would love to see you take this further and do new products for existing companies. Like an Apple videogame controller, or a Nintendo chair etc.

Thanks for another awesome video, can't wait to get started with your design courses when they drop!

That 7up brand deal is genius. If Nintendo did that, I would totally buy a pack of those cans and save them.

2:06 that's goofy ahh

These all look AMAZING! as an Artist my self. this is on another level! awesome job!

Your designs are BEAUTIFUL! I want all of these products right now

The iDonut is some amazing. The stabs at apple are amazing. The dynamic island joke really got me tho

The 7UP one is just genius! Nintendo definitely needs to step in the grocery world more, the marketing ideas would be so cool!

I love your work so much. Also for a person who supposedly does not draw realistic art, you sure did a legendary job with that Wendy's character lol❤

Would totally buy the 7up and cpt. Morgan ones. Love your content! 😁

This is one of my favorite channels, it never seizes to impress and inspire.

5:41 thats really true 😂

6:05 i see among us i swear its a among us shaped donut

4:20 They would definitely sell this as a to-go breakfast item.

Your ideas for these videos are always so fun, that coupled together with your amazing artstyle always ensures a banger of a video

6:35 Those prices donut seem quite right for Apple, let's try $99.99, $299.99, and $499.99.

0:32 Me, a 24 year old, who had oatmeal for breakfast this morning and has a huge container of it on my counter: Haha… yeah… only old people like that (In all seriousness, if you put the right thing in your oatmeal it is soooo good. I used to put warm peaches in mine and it was the best. Now my go to is apple and cinnamonsugar)

I wish your concept were really used by these brand even if for a limited time. I love seeing the ideas you come up with!

been waiting for your next one, Brandon! inspirational work as always 🙏
