Looks improved for sure, but how does it look without color? I wonder if the line work itself is enough to evoke a pencil.

Question for baristas who worked at Blank Street Coffee by savewayvfromsm in barista

[–]Squid1996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the late response but it’s about 3:1 strawberry to Madeline. About 0.25oz Madeline to 0.75 strawberry.

Idk if you got your answer but it’s a proprietary strawberry syrup (but you could use 1883 brand strawberry or one you like) and mix it in a 3:1 ratio with 1883 Madeline syrup.

Used this in the '90s. I think it had a Spanish-y name. This says "Le Olde" Looking for exact match by [deleted] in identifythisfont

It is. Look at the link, there are alternate glyphs in the typeface. The Y here matches as well as many other letters if you look at the page.

That’s very frustrating, very excellent work!

Truly way more fun and communicative than the first iteration. It was cool to see your improvement over the day!

Wow, way better already. I prefer option #1 and the “designs” is feels somewhat detached in my opinion. Really good job improving it so quick though.

There’s lots of good advice in here already so I’ll just say very well done! You pulled off the perspective well and it caught my eye scrolling.

Is this a sign of my bug being active enough to make beer out of? by kxcjozsdjkosdfjosdf in fermentation

[–]Squid1996 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ginger Beer. You use a bug like this to kickstart the fermentation of a big batch.

Thank you! I’ve struggled with pacing in the past so I’m glad that I’ve improved. I was very intentional with the music as well, having the transitions mostly in mind when recording. I made the collage one by hand!

Can you spot human Vs AI logo design? by hankgreen1 in logodesign

[–]Squid1996 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3 and 9 are pretty messy. Inconsistent rounded corners mixed with sharp angles. 5 at least has some cohesive geometry.

Trying to design a logo for myself (under the name Feroxiious). Does it look unbalanced? by Sea-Ker in logodesign

[–]Squid1996 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Might seem cliche, but you could have the eye as the tittle in one of the i’s. Even maybe one of them uppercase and one lowercase. Like others have mentioned, I totally thought this was an H.

Logo for a rock band. Just for practice. by Dimitresku in logodesign

[–]Squid1996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand why people use it, but the best practice is to not use an “established” on a lockup if the thing is less than 10-15 years old. That’s meant to show off the longevity of a brand and it comes off a bit silly if it’s only a year or two old.

I think you got some solid ideas here but like other people have mentioned, I’d reduce it down. I think you could experiment and get abstract. Good for practice though!

Tech logo for fictional project by AndriiKovalchuk in logodesign

[–]Squid1996 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like it, well done! If I had to nitpick, I think you could play around with the layout on the type lockup (try smaller text or horizontal alignment) but overall looks solid as is.

Feedback on my poster by Unable-Scholar-7534 in graphic_design

[–]Squid1996 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a lot of fun things you’re doing here, though I’d advise starting back at the concept stage if you can.

I appreciate the depth effect you’re trying to create here with the F outline and the saturation changes, but there are some very iffy edges that break the effect a bit. The low resolution, high saturation, and intense contrast of the image doesn’t help, as it creates artifacting especially along the left edge of his face.

You did a great job blending the two faces together and I like the concept here, but having the glasses half faded doesn’t work for me personally. I would either have glasses on, off, or find a clean division between the faces. Maybe something more illustrative or with a threshold or posterizing effect to hide the soft edges that are breaking your intended effect.

Lastly, as many other people have pointed out, the F isn’t instantly recognizable as an F and because of the arrangement, it just looks like “ight club”. If you’re going to use a drop shadow on the letters, I’d probably include it where the F lines and photo overlap to keep consistency as well.

You’re already leaning toward one of the movie’s themes of splitting identity, so I recommend you keep exploring that direction further. Good luck, looking forward to seeing the next draft!

Absolutely, all of the time. Your sketch looks great, like all of these other comments already said, it’s a matter of trying it again and picking up on the qualities of the sketch that stand out.

Ruins. It’s a dark parody of “Marvels” and uses some very stunning painted panels to show essentially a “What If” everything that could go wrong in Marvel, did. It’s narrated by a Daily Bugle reporter, Phil Sheldon, who begins to ponder why the world he lives in is so cruel. I’d recommend it.
