Sorry for the long wait. I totally forgot that I made the promise to post the end result on this forum haha. But here it is. It was a really interesting project to work on.

Some illustrations for on a beer label i'm working on at the moment

I use a fixed price for logo's, this becouse otherwise you get punished for the fact that you do a good job quickly. It's not the time you spend but the quality that matters the most in my opinion. But it works different for everyone.

2nd logo, but more space between the text and the icon. And i should make all the lines the same weight

small white tekst on a yellow background is a big no for me. And there is a lack of hierarchy, explanation and logic. I don't know what to do at all. Last point is a personal one I think, but the corners are way to rounded. I should keep it more minimal and clean overall. It's a 4 for me

I like the concept, but the use of colour isn't doing the job for me quite yet.

Sure will!

Thanks alot! Norman Rickwell makes very nice illustrations indeed, I think i'm going to work with oilpaints and then somehow scan or photograph the piece to work it out further in photoshop and illustrator to add text and to combine the illustrations!

Hi everyone, i am working on a project and i have a question.. So the idea was to make a beer brand that looks like it could have been from 1950, but i don't know how they made those amazing illustrations for the ads like guinnes or budweiser. I have done a lot of research but i just can't find...
