So I also got bored in class...

Needed something to do in my dreadfully boring web design class yesterday, so I came up with a new Cardinals logo. Nothing spectacular, but if anybody wants me to post some usable in-game versions, just let me know.

What program do you use and do you hand sketch this stuff prior to using that program?

Looks sharp dbacks! Nice work for a 'quickie'. Hell, nice work period.

I use Illustrator and Photoshop, and yeah, I usually hand sketch a rough draft before starting anything on the computer. That way I have a plan of attack, and I'm not just staring at a blank screen.

I wouldn't say this is among my best stuff, but keep in mind, the majority of it was done within a 1 hour timeframe. All I did this morning was add the text, the baseball, and made the bird a little bit uglier.

once you begin putting the 'sketch' into Illustrator/PS, is it a tracing process or freehand drawing it into the program.............or not really freehand, but some other form of drawing in the program?

This is great stuff.

Not so much tracing... I mainly use the sketch as just a reference to look at. Most of the actual "drawing" is done with the pen tool. Takes some time to learn how to use, but an essential tool...
