Vectoring Custom Lettering | Tips for Graphic Designers

Howdy friends, today I wanted to talk about some custom lettering I created for a friend of mine. This vector lettering was a joy to make, and was part of a really fun project. I'll talk you through some ideas on how to sketch out your letters, how to take those letters into vector, and how to add a little bit of energy to your letters to make your design look finished. I also wanted to share my ideas around bartering, rather than doing free work, for your friends. //SUBMIT YOUR WORK// Want to submit a piece of design for review?
