[UPDATED] DAILY BUZZ Espresso Bar © Branding

[font=Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif]UPDATE: New image.[/font]​

Regardless, here's a progress shot of the branding I'm doing for a local coffee shop. I'm also designing their website, social media pages, and business cards.​

The quality was shit due to Lightshot, @"Astro". Does this look better?​

Looks really cool man! Love the color scheme. Are you doing these in PS or in Illustrator?

I do all of my work in Photoshop. I'm more accustom to it and have yet to sit down and relearn a new program. I would like to look into Ai though.

This looks really dope! I'm not as creative when it comes to doing stuff like this

That's the same for me, although my Graphic Design course is helping me to learn Illustrator as well as InDesign.
Illustrator seems much more difficult for me to use, but that be because I am so much more used to Photoshop and I've never really taken the time to properly learn Illustrator.
What size do you create your logos at, since they aren't vector?

I'm just getting into logo design, and yours are really cool! Loving the work you've posted so far, really top notch work my friend. Keep it up!

Logo is cool. Colours are a bit eh. The text quality and overall aliasing is pretty nasty.
I'd recommend redoing it in Illustrator.

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to choose the color scheme. The quality looks like shit in the screenshot. It doesn't look like it does in Photoshop, but that makes no sense. And I don't know how to operate Illustrator. :/

I'll definitely fix the quality.

What do you mean by "aliasing?"

I set the workspace to 1,000 x 1,000 pixels and go from there. So, I'd say they are roughly 600 x 600 pixels.

The little jagged bits on the edges.

After seeing the updated full size images, I agree with @Astro in that the aliasing is pretty rough.
If you are able to redo this in illustrator as Astro suggested you could make it look much smoother, as well as make the text look better.
Not bad, still amazing but if you are able to port it into AI and re-do it there it could be a pristine logo
I can't imagine it would be too difficult to re-do this in Illustrator if you just bring the PNG file over, but in the end it is up to you.
I like it

The color scheme works for what its supposed to represent. Although I'm not a fan of Photoshop logos just due to the fact that anything you make in PS has to be HUGE if you dont plan on losing quality when scaling.

That is actually beautiful and so clean. Well done.

 

[Daimi]

Looks really clean and good mane .

What he said. I dislike photoshop for logos/drawings for the same reason as where AL keeps scale no matter what size.
AL is worth using and learning over PS.

But for being photoshop, that looks really good.

I like drawing in PS, well, for some things I guess. If I'm doing a digital painting, PS all the way. I also do a LOT of my pre-vector sketching in Photoshop, just prefer the brush in PS over Ai. But I agree entirely, that Illustrator is for sure worth learning if you've got the time.

Do you use a drawing tablet to do your work?

For digital paintings/sketching in PS yes. For everything else I use my mouse. I know some people use a tablet with the pentool but I cant get used to it

If I were to get into something like this, I feel like I'd use the tablet for everything, I don't have the most steady hand in the world. None the less great work! (best designer fk has known)
