Band Logo

Some more details to whet your already-salivating appetites:

The name of the band is King's German Legion. We're interested in using the above-pictured horse from the period flag of Hannover as a base, as it is the root of our "regimental heritage". This, however, is just an idea.

We also want to incorporate the letters "KGL", as that is more identifying than the full name of the band. Again, just an idea. Maybe the full name could also be included.

The logo should comfortably fit within a 15.5 in by 15.15 in square on a kick drum head, which is black.

So we were thinking white, gold, and red as possible colors to rest on that black background.

I know $10 isn't much, but we don't have a lot of money and I believe nobody should work for free. After all, we dont!

How about 5-10 times the fee? How much do you guys get payed for a gig? How long does the gig last? How many hours do you think illustrating and designing the logo you request would take?

please be bait

First off, you don't have a "style". That's for your designer to decide while creating your identity. Next is the insulting fee. Take your ten bucks and purchase a stock vector, but don't honestly expect any designer to put something together for you, especially something that "makes all of you happy". If you were good at coming to a unanimous decision, you wouldn't have ended up with a shit band name that you have to abbreviate because it's long and retarded. What makes you think requiring all of you to sign off on anything given to you by a designer, who knows better than you, could possibly turn out decent? If I invited you to come play a show for a magnanimous ten bucks, but offered only to pay on the condition that your music "makes all of us happy", A: How hard would you work for that ten dollars, and B: What do you really think your odds of getting paid are?

I apologize if it was insulting. I was aiming to attract someone hungry. I meant no offense and I understand your viewpoint. Consider me newly educated.

Mods, just delete this. I clearly didn't know what I was getting into.

Something like this?

Even the hungry would reject that.

Btw expect hungry work to be mediocre/bad work.

Even if your broke, do save up enough money to pay up.

Don't be such an ass to treat designers like trash, paying 10 bucks. Do you think design doesn't require work and effort. Years of the practice and experience.

Why not let your band play for 10 bucks per set for every performance.

Since most of us can't afford to pay you more than 10 bucks, like your logic leads us to believe.

Well, like I said, didn't mean to come off like an ass. I guess we'll pass the hat around and save some money.

Never meant no offense, guv.

This doesn't really grab me as a logo, but I think it could definitely be used in some other promotional capacity. I'd be happy to pay you for your work on this.

Email?

You guys are probably gonna break up in a month, link your music.

Also can one of you guys just pirate illustrator and make something after a week of tutorials.

you can get cheap logos there but i don't think $10 would do

>>285645

Thanks, I'll check it out.

Doubtful, but who knows.

We're just coming out of the three-month writing and initial rehearsal phase. First shows are at the end of the month. Won't have anything listenable until November.

I've been messing around in PS and poking around with tutorials trying to make something decent. Should I be using Illustrator for this instead?

>>285633
Okay, i'll give it a try for a logo.

I'll let it slide, but only because your post number is a palindrome.

I know you apologised but you are SO the guy in this Youtube video (caution, loud swearing) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfprIxNfCjk
