^First off, these are some kick a** logos! Some show you how to make the logo that they have for an example but others show the creative process behind they logo and how to develop your logo. They all show you how to do things with fonts though which will be helpful references in creating my logo.

Space Ship!

This here, is a space ship i made on illustrator. I made it myself with the help of dennisdesign.com. It was pretty difficult and we used a varied bunch of tools to make this wondrous project.

New Skills: We did not use many new tools but we did, however, use tools in different ways. For example I made the flames using circles but we used the path finder tool to make it look the way it is. I also learned how to use the gradient tool which is now my favorite tool in the program.

Reflection: I never thought i would enjoy using illustrator but i did and it was very difficult but my final product was awesome.

I would give my self a 10 for participation and a 10 for quality because i worked very hard on this and it had an amazing outcome.

Illustrator

This was a project to get used to illustrator and learn some tricks while were at it. I used three different tools to make this project. vectordiary.com is the website that guided me on how to make it.

Tools Used: Pen tool, pencil tool, and shape tool (ellipse, square, star)


Self Reflection:  I discovered that illustrator is a very difficult program to use and to even harder to learn. Hopefully i will get better at it but i an optimistic about illustrator because you can do a lot with it if you know how


I would give myself a 9 for participation and an 8 for the quality of the picture because although it is not the best project, i tried my best and it was very difficult.
