Slingerland Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Maybe not explicitly when it comes to taking pride, but the subtext... Never mind. What I was going to say is just going to be met by a 4-8 word bullshit response that would further perpetuate and an already finished discussion anyway.

Asuma Posted March 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Let's just close the subject and move on. Official Self-Anime Portrait. This took all but 10 minutes at most. I'm fairly proud of it. I'll do a more difficult logo next. What logo would you guys suggest? Off-topic: The title card thing is do towards the end of the month, right?

Pheonix Gamma Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 The typeface for "Channel" is a bit off. Easily remedied by using the proper font or just tracing over with the pen tool. Don't care much for the anime thing. A quick spurt through DeviantArt shows that pretty much everyone is doing anime now, so you'd have to set yourself apart from the rest if you want to do something really good. Varying line width could have helped, the eyes are too obviously composed of abstract shapes that feel disconnected, and that little neck vein thing seems pretty unnecessary unless you're smiling really, really hard.

tentril Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 I'm pretty sure that "neck vein" is his hand. Also, the "W" in news looks off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DimensionWarped Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Did someone take a big, anime smile shaped bite out of your mandible on the right side of your face Azu? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asuma Posted March 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Actually, the anime thing was part of a project. Everyone in my class liked it, but 2/3 thirds of them haven't even used Illustrator. So, I guess something like that would impress them. DW: That's my hand.

Asuma Posted March 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 WARNING!! Cheezy-Dragon-Ball-Z-Sonic-Crossover I'm just practicing doing effects in Photoshop. I plan to learn how to do effects for games. A Digital clock and a half empty bottle of "AntiSigma Tonic" I'm think I'm getting better at logos.

Slingerland Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 I'm thing I'm getting better at logos. Your logos are plain. Try using a more visually appealing text for starters. You also rely too much on stroke. Also, the beam in the first picture is way too blurry and the Earth looks like a watercolor painting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shadix Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 They are getting BETTER though... On the DBZ Sonic one you probably shouldn't have smudged the actually beam part. Just be a bit more wary of what you are trying to accomplish next time, because it looks like you tried to do a quick fix on something that didn't turn out the way you wanted it to. Also, while the bottom one looks alright, it doesn't look like you used any actual perspective. This is just an artist being nitpicky (one with, ironically, a poor sense of form), but you should use a vanishing point instead of using "fake" 3D. I'd suggest doing taking a bit more pride in your work and making something a bit more ambitious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaaah, that's the other thing I thought was wrong with it, but I totally forgot the term, "vanishing point." Yeah, the objects are not all going to the same point if you extend their lines out further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
