The first design used a B&W image that I lifted from his blog and a clip art CV logo off the web. I colorized the image and applied a Photoshop poster edge filter to it. While it showed some design promise, Marty said the CV logo was incorrect and the the image was probably too tall. He was also concerned that the milk car was too dominant, the hand rails on the gondola were cast-on and not separate add-ons (Marty is a freight car fanatic in case you don't know.) Try again. These pro bono clients can be so demanding!
The next design is the same width but much shorter. He sent me a color image with a steam engine to use. I added smoke, steam and a new sky. I applied the same filter as above. The logo is correct as I drew the it directly from official CV documents.
Stop by Marty's blog and tell him if you like these.
Thanks pal, it looks great! Really appreciate it. You earned every penny I paid for it!
ReplyDeleteSee you tomorrow….
Looks great, and I am for the new logos. When we get a new home, and I start on another layout, maybe you can do the same for me! LOL!
