Ooook.

no i don't

I would start by making it all caps. A change in font would be nice. The color seems a bit off also.

>>244025
also, find a way to make the viewer notice both the logo and the name

>>244025
holy shit, I forgot, USE ILLUSTRATOR

Replace the info you want kept private with dummy text instead of just deleting it and post it again

>>243869
Will do that tomorrow. Just got into bed and don't have access to the file at the moment.

The only text that is deleted is the contact info and the location of the "Central clinic". I guess it does make a big difference to how its seen by the eye.

Here it is with text filled in.

I will need a bit of room at the bottom left side for the health licence logo thing, which I have not had sent to me yet.

Make the laptop not a picture

Holy fuck son that's horrible.

Learn how to use a design program that can create vectors.

So, the only problem is the unsoftness of it?
Is Pixlr Editor a good alternate program?
Is the concept of the logo itself shit?

When I think of K-Mart I think of dusty yellowed floors. Maybe incorporate that in somehow.

Well I just took another look and it seems like the tapes aren't in perfect chronological order, I don't really mind that though.

I've made 4 covers for each of the 4 albums, would appreciate some feedback

Here's "Welcome to Kmart"

>>242654
Please elaborate on your reasoning.

The only balance I see is that it's vertically symmetrical. Not sure where's the rest of the balance (or the design).

>>242655
It's a school project. Basically we needed to create a poster on one of the Elements and Principles of Design and mine was balance. I focused on the vertical symmetry to portray this....

>>242655
Also I am a bit confused with your comment.. particularly the last bit,

"Not sure where's the rest of the balance (or the design)."

Could you further elaborate?

I showed both to my gf and she said that it had too much information. So I made a third one (that I honestly didn't like) to show her.

She liked this the most.


Probably the bg is what's making me hate this, but don't know what to do with it.

I don't like the pictures that small, they are one of the most important information you can show, and it attracts the attention of possible customers.
The text part should be more secondary, in my opinion.
If i had to do this, i would associate an image with one of those qualities, like: a picture of the raw materials you use for ''alta qualidade'', some random keychains you made, side by side, for ''temas variados'' and so on. Also, you could pay the designer with custom keychains kehehe...

More infos.

The game's a qsuedo turn based RPG where players assemble teams of up to 6 heroes (arranged in a 3x2 grid) to fight in dungeons/arenas.

The game field looks something like this atm (I'm still working heavily on the UI atm).

One of the character cards (the vanguard) on the player side has a golden border and greatly improved stats. It can also provide a buff of sorts to the rest of the allied team; making the vanguard a priority target to attack.

Added some gradients and changed the colours.

Fuck me, I wish I could get a pixel artist half as good as that on me team.

>>242084
This looks fantastic. whats it from?

>>242086
That's not true pixel art, it's drawing a standard picture and then abstracting it and adding little bits of pixel art here and there to blend it together, then applying the species affects like the little glowing sprites and ambient occlusion to complete the entire effect.

The logic behind it is explained better here

What you get your degree in doesn't mean shit once you're back in the real world. Your portfolio is everything. The most important tool at your disposal is who you know. Make contacts, develop relationships, never stop improving yourself and honing your skills as a creative professional. This is one of those weird fields where having a degree can actually set you back a little bit, so be careful.

My parents were never supportive either and expected me to fail. I didn't even bother going to college past an AA at a local community college. Then I was making about as much as they ever did by my early twenties. I'm not telling you not to go to school, that's dangerous advice. My point is that you kind of just have to carve your own path to some extent. Make friends in the industry in your area; they'll get you your jobs, gigs, etc. and you'll learn from them. You'll become a better designer by working under better designers, just like any other trade. You might have to do soulless production work for a long time, there's no shame in that. It doesn't mean you've failed as a creative. It just means that's where your skills are needed right now, for this season of life. You'll be able to apply those skills to creative design work.

Learn. Never stop learning. Be fueled by a lust for knowledge and experience. Learn Adobe products inside and out, well enough to teach other people how to use them. Study artistic techniques. Learn to understand minimalism and when it's useful and when it's not. Learn to recognize barriers between information and people's understanding of that information, then remove those barriers cleanly. Provide solutions. Play a lot of video games, and study their art of conveyance, how they subtly inform the player/user of what to do without (ideally) tutorializing and causing frustration. Work fast. Work efficiently. Build confidence through experience. This is how you build a career as a designer in visual communications.

Just know that the person who reads your resume (Assuming they've got a decent amount to sort through) will take about 20-30 seconds to glace over your resume. Make it concise, simple, and visually pleasing.

1. Something inside a tooth will always look like a cavity or something along those lines.
Reverse it, make a tooth inside of the sun. It will also make more sense scale-wise (the sun is infinitely bigger than a tooth).

2. A white logo doesn't make sense. What do you do when you need to have it printed on white paper?

3. That tooth doesn't look like a tooth and that sun looks weird not being complete.

Thank you very much anon.

HOLY SHIT THERE'S A SUN EXPLODING OUT OF THE ROOT OF MY TOOTH.

This image looks like the next thing that's gonna happen is that he's gonna hemmorage out of the root of his tooth. OP you've managed to give me images of people with blood flooding out of their mouths based on your design.
