I'm putting together a chest cavity for an animation. The character is half human half robot hence the metal bits. This my first real project in illustrator, any tips for making the parts feel more consistent?
The gradient backing looks average but i'm not sure how to keep it looking 3 dimensional otherwise.
Will be here to answer questions
Cheers

Put some work into the strands comming from the heart, the top right one comming from the side looks off in its connection to the 'lung'
Why is it so difficult to get a Wordpress site with a decent theme? All the sample demo sites on the theme browser show these beautiful, well-designed sites with amazing layout but after I load these sites they all just show the same dumbed-down, most-recent-blog post views.
What happened to all the sweet pictures and layout and parallax images they were showing in the theme browser, WHAT THE HELL
you know what i mean? this shit sucks

Has anyone used other CMSs, like Webflow's WYSIWYG? Is it horrible? Can it work?
poo in a loo
>>245797
This is clearly very basic.
The colours are childish. Have a look around the web (an I don't mean just the logos but the current design in general) and get inspired. Read some tutorials on colour and such.
Most importantly, don't get disappointed over haters.
>>246605
also make sure the letters does not look stretched like the "G".
Here's a rough logo I made earlier today. I know the laurel is slightly off center. Anything else I should do?
I can fix anything that is off centered- that is not an issue. Anything big I should do, i.e. Color change, size change, better design, etc?

The hand looks a little awkward

Your fist looks feeble. Draw is to look like the fist of a man that could rip your face off with his dick.
Also, other 40k imagery could get you places. Lots of laurels and manliness.
And maybe a different color than red. Red and black are so over used, and they should only be used sparingly.
I have seen some great work with Daesh with duck faces, but then I thought, what about using pigs or dogs? Especially dogs has so many expressions so it could be great. I have yet not found so many piggy expressions though. I am new to using photoshop, so if someone feels like it, I would love to see Daesh with their true doggy-expressions :)

Hi /gd/! Does anyone here know how to make images like pic related? How do I do that?
>>247563
Files created with this method look like what I'm looking for, but I couldn't open them like it says I should, nor I could open them with method from >>247521
I have also found pic related, but none of these methods seem to work for me.
Anyone figure out how to save a font locally from these assholes?
I've just spent about 5 hours on an InDesign document and can't open the document with the font on my client's Mac.
Is this how Adobe figure the universe is going to operate? Completely inconvenienced?
oh anon, you're so naive. you don't deserve your client.
>>247438
Thanks for your advice. Merry Christmas.
That's why you package your files, retard.
Hey to all who will reply me. I wanna make an opinion poll about a logo that i'm making for a new application (the subject obviously is about birds and bird sighting) i will be grateful for all your answers.
>>245432
>Start a straw poll
I would go with the Rainbow or Yellow ploy birds; depending on the color and look of your competitors apps.
Also, grade A stuff there.
>>245432
First or fifth options, they are killer
love them all! Yellow is eye-grabing. Pink/Red will probably attract females most. The simplest is the black outline without rainbow letters and just blue. My favorite is the bottom left as it gives the impression of a colorful variety of birds and people. The bottom right is very beautiful and makes me think of visual arts. I would pick the bottom left because it feels like it could represent the variety of bird watchers and bird species as well as being a simple logo that anyone could draw.
Hello. I'm trying to find a really nice fountain pen for a writer/calligrapher of moon runes. She likes fountain pens. Budget is $75 (US) unless some anon can make a case for a $100 pen.
Any ideas? This isn't my realm of expertise so I don't know where to begin or what to look for.
Thanks in advance!
Bump for interest. I'm looking for a gift as well.
>>247051
I was actually looking for one yesterday.
Entry level are cheap, but it depends which type you want.
Do you want cartridge refill or piston refill?
If you want to feel cool and old school showing off refilling with ink go for the piston refill.
This will show you how systems work.

How much should I charge for a similar web design work? It's not my work, mine would be a bit less polished and would probably take twice as long, so factor that in please. Still this quality is something I'm after / similar to what I should be able to do.
Freelance. UK. Looking for clients in US, possibly Canada and UK.
Let's say for homepage and one inner page of this sort.
>>245788
If you are new, consider a $50 flat rate plus $10 per hour. When you get better/faster you can charge 2 or 3 times more.
To help, you should make a bunch of template websites that you can build off of or reference.
>>245795
how do you charge a client per hour?
what prevents someone saying they worked 10 hours when in reality it was more like 5?
How do you make pictures like this?

they used this "logo" for literally 6 months. the hideous rainbow above is what came next. technically this was first but they hated it and it was only used for a short while before going to the green->purple apple... which was later cleaned up significantly.
>paid a guy $400 to make a logo
>came up with this
How should I murder this fucker, /gd/? :^)
well what did you want and expect? what was in your brief
Anyone could make a better logo than this.
I'd say kill him with words, words in comic sans.
kill yourself first for paying some faggot $400
