Archived threads in /gd/ - Graphic Design - 160. page

Hey man, don't ever ask gd to critique your stuff. Bunch of wannabe designers without two good pieces to display, mostly nineteen year old students of political science trying to be "artsy" by drooling over gimp, just cause it don't cost no money.
So, save it. /gd/ don't mean graphic design, it means god damnit, as in God damnit when will someone who is really into graphic design come here.
Behance is where it's at. You're welcome.

Nice first attempt, the stance could do with more work though. Also the monster robot should be better centred.

>>270425
pespective, you're missing it.

i haven't done it but there's seems to be quite a few ways to do it automatically (envelope distort, transform, shear, 3d extrude with 0 depth, perspective tool, etc) another easy way could be on a 3d software just copy a bunch of planes/clone array and position the camera in the middle then just image traced it on ai.

Thanks.

I may have to just draw lines, I'm not feeling as lazy as yesterday so I'm up for it now. But, from your post, I am looking on YT now for an easier/automated way.

Any other takers?

Use potrace or autotrace on it, and then edit the resulting vector file

It's always summer, here on /gd/
I know, I know, oh, oh, oh

New fags have threads, and bots take wins
I know, I know, oh, oh, oh

Creativity is dry, and shit falls up
I know, I know, oh, oh, oh

Traps are women, sjw's abound
I know, I know, oh, oh, oh

The faggots come to dance, my mook
The faggots come to play

Doesn't change it from being a request thread like all the rest, unless you're offering payment. Guess what, getting out shit scrawled on your body isn't some life milestone that we are looking forward to.

Don't be retarded. Find a tattoo artist that is actually an artist, and have them create something unique for you.

He's talking about how to produce the mug.

I have no idea either, sorry OP.

>>269872
Maybe this, OP?

"Platesplease" on Etsy creates custom mugs

Gimp or just pirate it.

>>269098
paint.net is really good if you know how to look for plugins.
sometimes i prefer it over photoshop since i know it so well. i can get something basic done really quick.

>>269098
there's nothing like photoshop tbqh. you can search on youtube for photoshop cs6 portable (weights around 60mb and has almost all features)

Is your company making pencils?

>>268241
No, but it's an art studio :D

it looks like two mountains tbqh. the name should be bigger, is there a need for 2 pencils? and the pencils needs to be a little more obvious. one idea i just had that could be interesting it's a logo that look like pencil it's drawing the company name like one of those m.c. escher drawings. lately i've seen more people requesting more organic/hand made designs.

>>268175
no

your text placement is too low and the readability has not improved.

>>268175
Noob here, anon, that sounds like a neat suggestion for honing skills.
Off topic: If I wanted to work on something like this what suite software would I use? Web based or local?

i really really really like this image

how many threads did you make on /gd/ ? This in't your blog. I remember your frenchfag name and your dorky logo.

Anyway, there are tons of people who study motion graphics as their major, and they are VERY good (I don't do it myself, but here's one of my friend's reel https://vimeo.com/63595565).
It's a high-stakes business and you really need to master 3d as well as 2d, plus having original style(s). But it's a rewarding discipline if youre ready to devote your life to it, and you get a lot more creative freedom than in graphic design.

So far it looks good OP, but a few things I would do different are:

- Adjust some colors. For example: The circle containing 'hi' at the very start curses with the background color. Also the background color of the slide with the Adobe logos don't match color wise

- Do something more with de last half minute. It's a bit boring compared to the rest of your video. As it contains less movement, you could say there is a style difference. Do something with the cat for example, or chop up the information you want to bring across in smaller packs

Good luck!

it'd be better if it had their peng bat logo on the bottle somewhere

>>269826
Yeah that would work better with the "old paper" type of look they are going for, the modern logo in the middle throws it off.
