WF logo variation

[yakobin]

I often do personal projects because it's fun, and it reminds of how enjoyable making art is. I also like to try out new effects and styles I've seen in the wild.

Of course I try to make sure I'm enjoying the paid projects I take on. But if you never use your talent just for the sake of creativity, and are always tied to paying bills or meeting deadlines, you can easily forget why you love what you do!

And so, without further ado, I present my take on the WF logo! This is more of an art piece, as a true logo should be much simpler and much more versatile (imagine having this embroidered on a company hat…impossible).


It's 1920x2000…perfect size for a desktop wallpaper. I can supply other sizes if there's any interest.

Kind of looks like you should change to the "Jester of Visual Aesthetics"

Looks like a transformer version on the original wickedfire logo.

tomaszjot knows a good design when he sees one. He'd agree, I bet, that the font could be better though!

Yes please, upload a bigger version. I want to have bottom scrollbars. Make it so wide like a vagina dilated before birth.

That's awesome work, mang! *like*

Oh. it's huge, I didn't know you have to scroll right to see the WF-face. I have a narrow monitor (so my income looks good on it). I liked the logo based on dark background, didn't see the rest.

I still like it though.

A better typeface than Acropolis Bold Italic from Hoefler & Frere-Jones (currently one of the top type houses around)? Its angular style made the addition of the 32-bit polygon effect almost effortless.

Also, Western typefaces have been hitting pretty hard for the last couple years. Take this ad from Best Buy, for example. That's clearly a Western block-cut typeface (think "Wanted" poster)…being used to sell a tech brand! While I think it's a bad choice for Best Buy, I do think that being aware of current trends and including them tastefully into projects can give a designer the edge over the competition.

However, I've no emotional attachement to it; only logical. I'd be a shit designer if I couldn't take suggestions. You've heard my defense of the choice What font would you suggest?

I've always preferred a tight vagina. Here's a small version.

Here are some examples of this polygon style (not done by me). I love it. I've been seeing it around for a couple years now. I'd like to use it in an ad campaign or something!

First you bash dreamache's website design for the recent contest, now this? Are you fucking retarded?

Lol. This polygon shit leaves me cold too. Must be a Midwestern thang, bros.

It's a cool effect, but it leaves me thinking "Unfinished", like it's a mock-up with polishing left to do.

This shit's very subjective, like music brah.

This ain't WAFO you don't have to suck the ecock of every piece of shit posted on this site. Dreamache said himself the site owner was going with a better version. I can show you at least two posts where I have complemented his work. He is actually very talented. I have no doubt he is one of the top designers on WF.

As to OP. a guy who calls himself the duke of aesthetics should no better than to post that awful font or leave out the WF flame

Nice spelling douche bag

cool stuff mang! recently I've broken out of my shell and have taken on new design tasks/challenges. kind of like how every so often I get the urge to record/write new music; it's great when the incentive to explore creativity comes spontaneous/naturally opposed to being forced.

Great variation of the logo. Made it one of my backgrounds on my desktop. :eatmousepointer:

 

[SirKonstantine]

If you are going to change the logo, you'll have to change the colorscheme of the site itself.

The new logo is mostly grays and orange. You left out the red.

Other than that, great design man. I like.

this concept logo looks absolutely fantastic.
