Vector Illustration | Enamel Pin Concept

Inspired by the iconic Bold and Brash painting by Squidward Tentacles from SpongeBob SquarePants, this enamel pin design was created as a playful homage to meme culture and animated art. I crafted the illustration entirely in Adobe Illustrator, maintaining a balance between accurate fan art and stylized enamel pin aesthetics.

This project required working within real-world manufacturing constraints: I designed the piece on a compact 1×1 inch artboard, limited the palette to just 7 solid spot colors, and carefully separated linework from fills to match traditional enamel pin production methods. The mock-up showcases the pin in a whimsical setting—right outside Squidward’s own house in Bikini Bottom—to give it context and personality.
