It's hard to see on mobile but I'll make sure to look into it better because it looks like some good stuff!

I asked if it would be better to have a pdf but most people voted for a single large jpg

VexFox In reply to whitefoxdesigns [2016-12-30 16:38:34 +0000 UTC]

Yeah that's a good idea because pdf can be a huge pain for mobile users and even some pc users. A large picture is universal and everyone can use it.

Though it's huge since it's 18 pages (inluding the front and back covers)

Well, I could help out and actually host a small site where you change pages to read it like you'd do on manga sites etc. Which would work on mobile and PC without issues.
Though, a single large jpg is waaaaaaaay worse for mobile than a PDF in terms of actually reading it and opening/loading it.

It's ok. I will make a pdf document so people can choose either but in the end it seems it wasn't as popular as I had hoped.

And I also want to point out that this is more of a technical part of logo design, which is not everything.
The creativity and artistic ability cannot really be taught, but it can be practiced!

Thank you!

It's all about practice and that you like it of course. I myself have no patience for packaging or brochure design.

This tutorial, though simple in appearance, took me a whole week

This looks like an amazing tutorial, I'll try to donate as much as I can so you can reach your goal!
Hopefully, you do more of these in the future because you do brilliant logo designs that I envy and admire at the same time.Β

Please pay what you consider fair. Don't go overboard. I know everyone is having a hard economic situation right now.

If you wish to help you can also promote it between your friends. I believe is much better is 700 people pay only 1 dollar.

Honestly I don't have anything that comes in mind.... maybe one about ''landscapes''? you know, when you do a logo that has kind of background, I think it'd be interesting if it's not ask much. I'd surely pay for a tutorial like that as well.
Β The way you did the tutorial is good and easy to understand, I just wish I had AI to try one myself!Β

I'm not sure but I think you can try it on any program that uses vectors. The point is that as long as you can manipulate things as objects you should be able to move them around. You can also do this at hand using rulers and such.

Ahh this was a really cool tutorial! I definitely recommend it, even as a design student I didn't learn any of this cool stuff

SnailPropulsionLabs In reply to AkaPanuka [2016-12-27 04:30:02 +0000 UTC]

I've not seen the tutorial but I can echo the sentiment that design doesn't teach how to design.

AkaPanuka In reply to whitefoxdesigns [2016-12-27 04:16:12 +0000 UTC]

I guess it could be cool to see some more stuff like this just with different kinds of logos? I find people really like to see how people construct the things they do and their thought processes

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

whitefoxdesigns In reply to AkaPanuka [2016-12-27 04:24:57 +0000 UTC]

Do you think the tutorial explained enough or should be more detailed?

AkaPanuka In reply to whitefoxdesigns [2016-12-27 06:09:32 +0000 UTC]

I feel like it went over one way to approach things, which is great! It kept on topic and if it included more it might have gotten a bit too wordy for a single tutorial. If anything, I feel less words and more visuals is great for this kind of thing. A sort of show rather than tell kind of approach if you get my drift?

I really liked it though, I feel its opened up new ways for me to think about logo and vector design

whitefoxdesigns In reply to AkaPanuka [2016-12-27 06:16:17 +0000 UTC]

So more visual steps?

For the next one I could try a sport style logo, a pixel style or a low poly logo

AkaPanuka In reply to whitefoxdesigns [2016-12-27 06:48:32 +0000 UTC]

Potentially! Annotations might be a nice thing to add too to help with the visual side of things.
I'd LOVVEE to see a low ploy logo tutorial. I feel that style is really in right now

whitefoxdesigns In reply to AkaPanuka [2016-12-28 03:28:35 +0000 UTC]

Ok! I think I also need to explain more about the basics including colors, abstraction, etc.

ohh that would be interesting to see! Especially since this tutorial here didn't focus too much on the colour aspect of things
