A Few Logos I made heretofore

Well, I used to make logos with Photoshop before. Before learning this new illustrator thing. Even tho they seemed pretty exquisite and could make me content, I am going to stop making logos using royalty-free images. For one, it's not completely self-made. And many detest the idea of making a unique piece out of not so unique. Like the article (click here) explains their views.

Before I pack my logo making case, and shift from Photoshop to Illustrator, I would, however, like to share a few of the works done by me.

The first one is for a Thrifting page based in Mumbai. I'd highly recommend checking the newly made startup. Go check the page here: Malyvuz . She sells handpicked, washed, sanitized unique thrifted clothes reasonably priced, and with free gifts!

The logo was a bit too pink for her taste. I had to tweak it a bit and provide her with few more samples, as follows:

Good? Well nah. She seems to like a basic round base for the background. And so my next offerings were :

She liked it a lot. But then the bubble on the top right started bothering her. And after a few trials and errors, I came up with this which she decided to go with as well :

I liked Arial and other basic fonts on the logo more, but she insisted to go with this font. And customer is always right. Nonetheless, it was a fun and learning experience for me.

A few logos I made in this period will be attached here and with that, I will end the blog here. Sadly I have lost most of the files to showcase, but 2-3 would work fine I guess. After all this blog is just to keep a track of the skills I learn and acquire rather than a sheet of portfolio.

Learning Illustration with YouTube: My Journey in Adobe Illustration : 1

So I have been making some logos for a while now. But it's incomplete without learning to make it the proper way. And there comes the Vector Art. Installed Adobe Illustration. Had to go for the cc6 version as my pc runs on win 8.1 and the newer versions require the pc to be on windows 10. (God I hate win 10). So later I came to the realisation that the cc6 and the older versions are incapable of turning the corners of an object to rounded ones. One must copy the shape, transform it to a rounded cornered one from the drop-down window, use the tool "Slice" and replace the target. If it's going over the head for some people, bear with me, please. I had to install the newer version cc 17. I think that is the latest update as far as it doesn't ask you to have your windows upgraded to 10 but it comes with a new feature. The 'rounding corner option' introduced from this version turned to be a saviour and let you bypass all the 'to-dos' tasks mentioned e...

Learning Illustration: 4 : Colour Swatches and Gradient ( Adobe Illustrator )

Writing this down before I hit the bed. Just watched a movie with Winnie, "The Croods". I had already seen the movie years ago. But I wanted her to watch it. Anyway, I am getting off-topic, This would be a short and fast catch up on the illustration class as it's getting late. So much to do, so much to learn, so little time. In the class by EnvatoTuts+ , Mr Dan taught us things about colour swatches. It was all about colours. The usage of colour swatches for faster colouring. Adding customised colours to the swatches. And the most interesting one was the colour theme which uses the adobe cloud and shows a variety of colour combinations for a vibrant and eye-catching result. The community's most picked and voted colour combinations and adding them to the colour swatches can bring life to a dull illustration. And for people who don't like adobe clouds, we were given websites where we can pick other good colour combinations as well. And we were asked to fill colou...

Deviantart and Instagram for Digital art?

Learning skills feel better when shared. When you draw your first piece of illustration, the excitement and satisfaction are out of the world. But when you are the only one staring at the art you made, another pair of eyes can be so rewarding. There are plenty of websites to share digital art. But I picked Deviantart and Instagram. Deviantart is such an amazing website that holds artists from all around the world of different level of expertise. The community is nice. People share their arts and they support each other with feedback. Then Instagram is no stranger to anyone I believe. Instagram is an American photo and video sharing social networking service created by Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger. In April 2012.... Okay okay, no copy-pasted long description haha. So, my idea is to post one good drawing of mine produced in illustrator, colour calibrated and signed in photoshopped. Like this drawing of mine. This image is posted in my Deviantart (DexLearning...
