    Critique My Work

    I've been doing freelance logo design off and on for the last year. Mostly I've been exclusively doing logos for poker sites in the last two months, but I don't want to be pigeonholed with one area and want to expand. I'll apply to be part of the design team later when I have improved a bit more.

    Let me know what you guys think. Link below.

    I also do a bit of image manipulation in my free time. Those are from three months ago.




    For the one below, it's actually a 1920x1200 wallpaper, but I scaled it down a bit. I can provide the deviantart link if you would like it.


    I make forum signatures as well. I find it somewhat like making a full size illustration, except being bite-sized.

    Some most recent ones.

    Why wait. I think you have a great eye and would be a great addition to what I have seen here. Your compilation work is great. Very visually stimulating. Are all the images you used yours? My only thought would be to be careful if they're not. Otherwise, great compositions!

    Haha, thanks for pointing that out. Yes, they should be, as I think all images are from stck.xchng.

    Edit: And DeviantArt's "Resource" section for the C4Ds used in the first manipulation image.

    I think like all the logos, very recognizable. The images are really unique and it seems like you have developed your own style. I would hope that you would be able to make the team now!

    Some very nice logotypes. Love your clean style. My favorite has got to be the Velux one, very original. Good luck on making the design team !

    The "Knowledge is Power" image manipulation is very creative and powerful, that really caught my eye.

    Power is knowledge

    I love the power is knowledge one. Do you have it in color as well. Would love to see that. It would have quite an impact in the eye. The best thing about it, was that before reading the text automatically power is knowledge came to mind...great work.

    Very nice, I love the second forum sig one. I agree with the above post in that a little colour could enhance your work and make it have an even greater impact.

    Your logos are good, but you are very strong with the photo manipulation. Those are really good. I wouldn't mind having some good ones as a wallpaper. I really like the color one. The colors are very nice. Perfectly faded. Waaaaa... I want it lol.
