the bottom half is pretty well laid out and all, but i'm still really not liking the girl and the words coming out the outline of the girl itself seems pretty sloppy, the hair is way too angular, her left foot looks like it's been cut off and just, i don't know it just really doesn't appeal to me. is there also a tiny drop shadow on it?
The entire girl was going to be remade since she was very sloppily put together but I've ran out of time I was thinking of making it a crowd and the central person being highlighted by colour or just something group based in general with the text being spread in a different way also, the drop shadow is accidental basically [QUOTE=wewt!;32211614]I had a fever and sore throat while sketching the whole thing up and making it, I only sketched out three concepts. If I still have time (I'm not sure what our deadline is) then I'll start the whole thing from scratch. in fact I just want to forget that poster ever existed[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=wewt!;32254381]nopenopenopenopenopenope they chose the design but only with black + blue I have till wednesday to fix whatever I don't like[/QUOTE] except it goes to print on wednesday so I had to send it today
I don't like the contrast between the 2 halves. Besides what autumn said, the girl and the words coming out from it are chaotice, but the lower part is laid out pretty neatly and geometrically (except the spray painted one). And since you're going to change the girl, why don't you think of a new layout? Other than that, half tones are a pretty neat trick to get more tones with 1 color, although I like the colors

[QUOTE=Nyaa;32272556]He isn't going to change the girls because he ran out of time.[/QUOTE] well then 2nd edition who knows
Nah, I want to forget this thing ever existed which is going to be hard since it's going to be plastered somewhere in school but whatever

I don't even have the energy, I made the original with a 39 degree fever and the vomit thrusters on, right now I'm still stuck in bed till the end of the week When they were getting together people to make the poster, one guy said that he'll make one by hand (I imagine with markers n shit) so maybe mine will look good by comparison

I don't know, sometimes if I don't feel I gave everything I had in a design, I wont be very excited to show it to other people or i won't show them at all
[QUOTE=Bobie;32270974][img]http://filesmelt.com/dl/epcover.jpg[/img] how's this lookin so far?[/QUOTE] i do like this, but there's just something about the style that makes it look like livetrace, even though i know it's not
now that you mention it, its probably the small livetrace style fragments?
well yeah I think each shape needs to be a little less ambiguous and messy
oh thats just me being lazy and not giving the foliage proper shapes etc. not that it's an excuse to be lazy, i can see how it makes it look worse but making something like that gets very tedious for me maybe one day my attention span will match my profession

Wow, I haven't read this thread in a while, time to add a bunch of work to the OP
[QUOTE=chimitos;32264047]Help me make this better. (right click > view image) Other than making some of the lines bigger so it scales down, what should I do to it? My school wanted a new mascot logo.

[QUOTE=chimitos;32298815]...it needs to be something I make.[/QUOTE] you "made" it
[QUOTE=chimitos;32298815]...it needs to be something I make.[/QUOTE] I mean that's the best one of the logos you posted
I made this with a linart tutorial that my friend referred to me on DA. What do you guys think? How can I make it look better? [quote][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/Kkex5.jpg[/IMG][/quote] I've got mixed feelings about it, I need to fix the middle finger, and probably tinker with the bones in the wrist area, but I'm trying to do a little more to it. edit: I don't have a tablet, the tutorial was about making lineart with a mouse.
The rip in the skin needs to look a little bit meatier. Right now it looks like broken plastic.
you should start saving in .png also, shadows, use them
[QUOTE=Smeetin;32105550]I wonder if this is what happened to Hitler with his art before he became the fuhrer.

[t]http://www.yourlogoresources.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/fendi-logo.jpg[/t] [url]http://www.fendi.com/[/url] yours does make more sense, since the 2/to is part of the name, but yeah sorry!
i think it's plausible that he was unaware of that [editline]18th September 2011[/editline] and to be honest his is better
yeah i guess, the 2 Fs do just fit well together with the 2
i personally like Fendi's best but since they were both made for different purposes..

your { } should be aligned so that with is in the middle of them i'm ashamed to say i don't know what they are called. they're not brackets [], and they're not parentheses () and there should be a bit more space around the BIG and there's no need to kern LETTERS so extremely, i don't think it looks good to be taken pretty much right to the edge of the paper
[QUOTE=Autumn;32341814]i'm ashamed to say i don't know what they are called. they're not brackets [], and they're not parentheses ()[/QUOTE] I've heard them called curly brackets, squiggly brackets, and braces.
