aaaron Posted July 24, 2011 Author Share Posted July 24, 2011 I seem to not find any flags…..I will just draw my own..Umm, I don't know about it with the falg, maybe the flag's a bit to small, suggestions?![](http://i.imgur.com/P6u5w.png) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helpmeplz Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 No, the flag just sucks and badly placed. Also, did you start over? Doesn't look like it. Usually when you're going for a logo like that people put a background texture with a border… Like the WoW logo. One more thing, are you trying to make gold text?

aaaron Posted July 24, 2011 Author Share Posted July 24, 2011 Not really…I have a new idea that I will work on when I get the time.And the flag just makes it horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kusy Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 How about giving the text's outline a color? It looks bad just being black like that. I know it's a hairline but I will look tons better if you color it with a darker tone of that gold you used in text. Better evenm gradient it.

Robin Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 No. Delete everything and start again. Stop clinging on to a fail project.Go Google how to make text look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helpmeplz Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 You start with crap, you end with crap… So restart. Btw, what kind of effect are you trying to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaaron Posted July 25, 2011 Author Share Posted July 25, 2011 I know I start with crap and end with crap. I am just starting out on GFX. ;DAnyways, i am trying to go towards a simple but kingdomy look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 That's fine. Just stop trying to polish a turd.Start again. The most important lesson as an artist is that about 1 in 10 images come out good. The other 9 you have to discard or they'll drag you down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azure Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 @Wraith:> Then you're an idiot.All I see there is two fonts with a gradient, a lighting bolt that has zero use in the logo, and his name plastered at the bottom. Any moron can slap some effects on text and call it a logo. Secondly what did his posting that have to do with the thread? It's about what noodles is trying to do.

Jeff Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 @Navi:> This is just me, but this is worse than anything he's posted here.inb4 your blind.It has some nice bevel effects, a slight glow, and a nice shine going on. I mean, it doesn't really fit in with the thread but it's not a bad logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 @Navi:> Oh look computers have zoom features. <__<I was kidding. Obviously you can see well enough. Sorry for offending you if I did.Anyways, I suggest you start over completely. Like azure said, try and do a flag of sorts, but not a conventional flag like you did, more like a tapestry with a crest or design of some sort on it. Take an image like this:![](http://static.photaki.com/Medieval-flag--coat-of-arms-193335.jpg)then rotate it so it's horizontal and set it as the background. Then incorporate text into it in a stylish fashion. When you start over, I suggest you REALLY start over and try a completely new style of text.

Socuine Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Lmfao. First of all, it's one font, it's called regular type and bold type. Second, it's not just "gradient". It uses Bevel and Emboss, Inner Shadow, Drop Shadow, Bevel and Emboss. Third, I made this for him a year ago when he requested so, thus my action to post it here including the PSD.Now, let's quit the arguements and just help this guy.

aaaron Posted July 25, 2011 Author Share Posted July 25, 2011 Think it would look better with something on the flags?![](http://i.imgur.com/huSKi.png)I also have this one, but the flags look to bright.. o.O![](http://i.imgur.com/ipg97.png) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 no, take one banner and turn it on its side. Then try a bunch of different effects on the banner and on the text till you get something that looks good. You can put stuff on the banner to make it look better, but if you do something too fancy it might distract from the eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
