Sup guys. Just a quick post here. If you have a logo you want me to refine (can be hand drawn or something you already had that could be higher quality or nicer looking) just post it here and I'll do it for you for free.

Here's an example I did for Trent:

Before:



After:



thanks!

This one is pretty smooth but really small, do you think you could make it bigger without losing quality or making it look pixly?

You don't have that as a vector axel? What did you make that in?

Here is a 2505x2505 with 300ppi version:

edit: better version https://i.imgur.com/h41Qzyf.png

Theres a lot of mistakes in the trace.

Try to play around with the settings so the font doesn't get rounded.


EDIT: If you are using Ai, setting corners to 100% will get you much closer to the original.

Nice! Close enough

The dead cat logo was hand drawn by myself and I like the raw texture. Cleaned up its too cartoonish.
But thats just my opinion on the look you did a good job smoothing it out.

If you wanna do a more raw look on the Dead Cat one, you can turn up paths. I also did it as a 3-colour trace which turned the thin lines into a light grey. This gave some depth IMO.

Thanks man!
Dan, I had Illustrator before but I lost it somehow haha and I didn't make that logo into vector.

Yea! That's how i used to do covers for my old punk band. Has a rad vibe to it.


Also my comment was about improving the vector version Milk made. Cause i think it lost some depth compared to the original.

yeah I fixed it. actually, I think it would be more helpful just to show people how to do this instead of doing it for them haha. It takes literally like 30 seconds to make vectors in illustrator.
