And a lazy way is to make selections and change the hue of your selection if that is what youre asking.

trust me, anime waifus > amazing logos

I can feel you that brow

It's like any other skill.

The more you do it and the more you analyze/study the work of other great logo designers the better you will get at it.

I came across a logo I had made 5 years ago and laughed because it was such shit. Now I get paid $500 a day to crank out decent (not great) logos. I'm thinking 5 years from now I'll be pretty good.

Also, another tip: good logo design is more about knowing what not to do rather than knowing what to do.

bump, gimme the good stuff pls

You don't bump in here, fuckboi.

I'm going to start with something painfully obvious, but have you maybe altered brush settings? Are you using a tablet? , do you need to play about with tablet config?, if not save, restart the computer. Are you using a 'shit' tablet.. shit mouse? is it a hardware or software problem. ^^

i didn't even understand the question.
It's possible you're using a brush while you should be using a pencil.

You probably adjusted your grid size by accident, unless you are using the native 1x1 pixel grid.

Try turning off snapping of any kind, especially snapping to grid.

If your cursor graphic itself changed, caps lock can toggle between a generic tool icon and an accurate crosshair mode.

i think there's a rule somewhere about not using the text inside of the logo. anyways here's some ideas:

- make the lines thinner on top
- add the little circle on top so it would look more like a cage (is it a cage right?)
- don't use color until you have finish (it helps seeing the balance/negative spaces)
- the font doesn't help

>>260396
thanks
>the font doesn't help
how doesn't it help and for what?

Why is it meant to be hard to read?

stuff that supposed to be the focal point needs more detail for the sake of contrast and to make it less obvious you're an entry lever painter. the lava / smoke look like a fingerpainting made by 5 year old.

also, this isn't fine arts board. go to /ic/ for this stuff.

>>260408
wow.. do you know the name of this painting?

Not OP but bump. Would like to know

ITC Serif Gothic

Quite interesting, I'll bite.

>a) Colors?
faded but contrasty colors next to light browns or grey, mostly on a white background. Basic shapes with no outline or gradient.
Basically : flat design

>b) Fonts?
New and innovative, evolution from the standard romand characters. More personnality and a lot of variation with their accented characters.

>c) Layout?
Simple

>d) Motifs?
Diamonds, square, triangles.

>e) Use of photos vs. illustrations?
A hella lot of illustrations.

>How does the Scandinavian graphic design style differentiate from the style you can see in your country?
Feels more pretentions /or sophisticated. It fit a modern product/brand and appeal to a young audience.

>How much impact do you believe Scandinavian graphic design has had on graphic design?
A comeback of the post-modernism.

Scandinavian design is a pretty lame subject, people write a lot about Bauhaus because there is a lot to write about

incredibly this is one of the least cancerous request thread on this board, so ill answer I guess

>France

>4

>a)regular colors ? They like bright primaries.
>b)geometrique sans-serifs
>c)simple ? idk
>d)minimal minimal minimal
>e)illustration all the time, pretty nice ones too (often very flat)

Scandinavian design is a lot more minimalist and savy. the common man there has a lot more design education than in the rest of the world, and so the norm for commercial design is a lot higher.

Not that much impact history-wise I think. They have great design agencies, but I know very few of them who do work on an international scale.

fuck me if Im wrong but Ive never seen scandi type as "new" or "innovative". Any stuff you'd like to share ? (Im the guy who answered right after you)

Thanks for the blog post, be sure to keep us updated on Applying White Tack and Re-applying White Tack.

>>259984
is white tack the same as blue tack?

>>260010
Probably, but white so it doesn't stain your walls.

That CC? Don't use Export, use Export (legacy)

Honestly vaporwave it a shit design in general. Anyone can do it and 99% of the time it looks like shit(which it is supposed to)

So my advice for you is to stop making vaporwave.

For the top and bottom text, you can just erase what is outside the circle, using a big brush size to get rid of most of it, then zooming in and using a smaller brush for the smaller details

you will notice that some of the text is inside the circle (the "the" of the slack-jewed yokel), to remove this, select the layer and right-click>select pixels. Then use the color picker to select the color of the shirt, the use the paintbrush and paint over the text.

Now try and find a picture of your gerkin shit that is a similar shape to the pig (you could make one, but you seem to stupid to be able to do that). Add it in a new layer then scale (re-size) it to a size a bit bigger than the pig. Move it so it covers as much of the pig as possible without looking too retarded.

Now, set the Gerkin layer to a low opacity/transparency (about 50% should be fine) so you can see through to the original pic. Then use the eraser tool to erase where the gerkin is over the guys arm. After that is done, reset the opacity to 100%

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

Honestly I was hoping someone could photoshop the picture for me and re-upload it since my skills are so limited. Reading your reply was like a foreign language to me haha

Just grab some punkish lyrics

>I was fine before you came
>Get out of those shoes and grow wings, dear.
>It's not OK To pretend everythings alright
>Throw your hands in the air 'cause property is robbery!
>You will destroy me with words that you have never spoken
>The truth is what we make it, not what you see, so ask no questions.

or whatever floats your boat
