Hi Alex,
Welcome to YDF! Your work looks great. It would be better if you post the specific pieces you want critiqued in the 'Graphic Design Critiques' section. Enjoy your stay!

i think you have a pretty solid foundation to work from. i don't know what point you are at in your career per se, but i would recommend no matter what level you are, to study graphic design like you would study it in school. look at as much classic and contemporary design as possible, read books about it, read magazines about it, create projects or problems for yourself to be solved by design. think about design and what it means (to you and to others) always be willing to be critiqued and take hints from work that inspires you. and practice practice practice practice and so on.

I think you are off to a great start. Some things i noticed were that you use display fonts a lot like fonts from free sites. I would try and use more classical fonts especially for logos.
Also i noticed one or two items you put a stroke around the text, thats hard to pull off. Keep working hard and post future work in the design showcase thread, we would love to see your progress! |
