HoloX Laboratory ID Badge
The front of the ID Badge. This includes a the usual data, including the “Security” Level and other features.
Description:
Within the Hololive Virtual YouTuber community, Hakui Koyori is a relatively new entry into the Vtuber world. She is a member of the sixth generation of Hololive talent and is part of the Secret Society HoloX. As the brains of HoloX, she does lots of experimentation and refers to her fans as “Assistants.” Subsequently, any lab assistant to a secret society should probably have proper security identification. In came my crack at a design of an ID badge for Koyori’s Assistants.
Idea:
The idea for the ID badge came after I completed the design of Momosuzu Nene’s Husband ID card. I felt particularly inspired by the stereotypical “Lab ID” cards that are common in science and medical facilities. These types of cards are the ones that you might see in some games and movies about things such as pandemics and zombies.
Process:
Like with the other projects, I first began with creating an “engraving” style for the observe artwork on the front. I utilized the same approach as I used in the Husband ID card, which is much easier to replicate and iterate on when compared to the other method. The tutorial on how to create this effect can be found here.
Putting all the assets together in multiple layers in Adobe Illustrator.
With the observe centerpiece done, I moved work over to Illustrator where I did the majority of the design and layout. The ID card is a standard Credit Card size layout, with the background, artwork, and other components separated into layers for organization. As opposed to the Husband ID card, this badge is in a vertical portrait position, which is common in ID badges. Various items were layered on each other with different blending modes applied at different opacities. I took added inspiration from the different levels of superchats that uses can give to streamers. I emulated these levels as “security” levels on each card, going from SCL-1 to SCL-7.
