[QUOTE=AshMan55;36977433]Yeah it'll be worth it, especially if it's being blown up and printed.[/QUOTE]
Printed at put on one of [url=http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lithonia-Lighting-C1184-8-Fluorescent-Lighting-Fixture-277V-48-x24-/310388357331?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item48449678d3]these.[/url]
It will be a fine addition to the cave.
Cool idea, i'd like to see it when it's up and running :)
I've gotta be able to afford it first haha. The shipping and printing are going to be insane.
If anyone's interested, you can download the psd [url=http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1361233/Sign.psd]HERE[/url]. It's 4x2 feet. You'll need [url=http://www.font-zone.com/download.php?fid=1505]THIS[/url] font, I think. It's been a while so I don't remember where I got it.
Sample:

Can someone (preferably from/around London!) tell me what these symbols look like? (they're meant to be buildings)
clinton monument, i dont know, and a dildo/douche
the red symbol definitely looks like an x
one canada square, the shard, the gherkin
also i ended up with this for that logo

holy shit there are free gotham-like fonts everywhere
i don't like how there's a bunch of red at the top of the cube that isn't at the bottom
the red logo just seems very inconsistent, at some parts the black cross touches the edge of the red box, at others there's a huge border
well

left is how i originally had it, then i changed it to the right, and then i cut a bit of it off for the typography to feed into the logo.
i like the placement and colours of the left better
I think it just needs a bit more border on the left and bottom side. Since there is a thick border on the top and right.
This is with 50% of the same border width there is from the edge to the crucifix on the right side.

the right one reminds me of a cross too much, and the color is a bit too harsh
well, crux is latin for cross?

oh I only saw the logo, didn't pay attention to the name at the top
Two works I made last night. One is my girlfriend and I, another is just a logo of sorts.

the font's pretty nice but your kerning is way off around the A G
i'm also not sure i like how the bottom of the G curve becomes angled, and i know that's probably the font and not you but you could try changing it? it might not look any better, but it feels quite forced just now
the shape work on the top one doesn't impress me too much, it just looks like you live traced and simplified, keeping the angles harsh. you also have a hairline just coming in across the bridge of the nose, but that's negligible
the bottom one i like, but again, your shapes are pretty messy. there's too much detailing around the guys shirt collar and the highlights on the hair. also i like the effect you're getting with the cropping mask but i would personally try something a little different around the right hand side, because where the ink/paint goes circular it's much more obvious that you're just using a mask. unless that was how you intended it to look, idk
the bottom left part of the image isn't working too well for me either. the general direction of the clothes/silhouette suggest a downwards direction but then you have the white detailing coming in almost at a right angle, which looks pretty unnatural. also the brush strokes generally seem to be fading roughly where the silhouette drops off, but with your mask you've just cut it off harshly. i think if you altered the mask shape a little and let the brush strokes flow and finish it would look better.
but i'm liking it!

also i don't know if it's just how you've exported it or if the upload site has altered it at all but you have a bit of chromatic aberration going on there, was that intentional?
i dont see any chromatic abrogation
really? look by the pale strokes on the hair. it's subtle, but it's there
not seeing it

all i see is sharpening halos
ohh okay, that's what they are. my bad
Gave illustrator a whirl for a second time to make a simple creation this time around. Decided I wanted to play around with the whole Deadmau5 head, came up with this:

My other creation, the only other one I've done in illustrator was this:

i see errors on the eyes and how the blood on the main sphere borders the ears. nevertheless, interesting.
shitty idea that will never get used, but i did this
[img]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/47807909/unfairlol.png[/img]
but hey, i always wanted to put a cartoon character in a logo. oh well.
I really want some tutorials or something to follow along to so I can improve my abilities in Illustrator/Photoshop.
Any good websites you guys can suggest?

WIP identity design for a restaurant group that needs branding called 'The Lucas Group' which own a bunch of cool restaurants in my city. It's going to be made into a neon sign too.
Describes themselves as: risk taking, casual, young, cheeky, controversial not offensive, death of fine dining.
Did a bunch of variations and colour trials. The coloured ones aren't necessarily the layout im going for. Opinions? Is it readable?
I dunno about the circle though might change it.
