what did he gas you with?

You really have an axe to grind against Goose eh?

Ok. You just bring him up a lot and he's really a pretty decent guy, unusually right-wing politics or no.

I guess he is talking about you as well atm so fair is fair.

He's got some out there political views, but he was always polite with me.

I don't think he thought you were mad. *He* was mad that you insisted on equating him with Bodhi, who was legit horrendous.

Both in politics and behavior.

Maybe. You were pretty aggressive man.

This one is pretty good overall.

We have Mandy.

Can I get some opinions on these quick and dirty logo concepts? The M in MKT stands for Knife.

I can change whatever. What would you do to it?

Well if you can think of it let me know @Legalize

The problem is negative space in the knife.

See how they incorporate it in the new KI logo. You can do the same thing in black and white, just keep the knife almost entirely filled black

My vote is on the knife forming the vertical line in the K

Yeah I like that element too @vampirebox

@uncephalized I like your first one

Here, let me mock something up for you

So if I were designing this, I'd change it to a pocket knife and align it to a bold font face

Lines would need to be cleaner, but you get the idea

I don't make pocket knives.

But nice work. Thanks @vampirebox

Same goes for any kind of knife, really. If it's a particularly long blade, you'll want a taller font.

@uncephalized Can you make Katanas?

Theoretically I can. I haven't yet.

Ok

I'm more into European stuff generally @Salacious Swanky Cat but I dabble in lots of aesthetics.

Did you have a project in mind or just curious?

Just curious

@vampirebox I am into a hand-drawn line art aesthetic. Like what I posted but nicer/higher effort/not drawn with a pen stylus on my phone in 2 minutes lol.

@uncephalized Can you make a broad sword? Like the zelda master sword?

Yeah, although a faithful replica would be too heavy to wield lol.

By hand or computer, rules of visual hierarchy remain the same. I'd still keep it in black, with small amounts of detail (I used lines) to draw attention to the center.

@uncephalized Ok

I assume we're talking OoT Master Sword.

That design has some usability issues but a practical/usable take on it could be a fun project.

I have an aversion to making things that are not functional.

@vampirebox I think you're right on reducing the whitespace in the knife. If I did a blade shape like in #3, with overall design based on #1, with the whitespace confined to a slim line at the knife edge, I think that might be a good direction.
