How I made the KRYPTONIA.IO LOGO (my first post)

Greetings ! before I start let me introduce myself. My name is Kraster and I am a graphic designer from davao city. Today I will show you the process on how I made the kryptonia logo (which, at this time, has been gaining lots of traction) so let's begin, shall we?

First, I research different types of logos and collect any logos that I think matches what I'm aiming to do, or any that fancies me. I then make different thumbnails based on the images that I collected. i compile them all into one file and submit it for checking. :)

Regarding this particular work, I wasnt happy with the first batch of items. I was thinking I wanted to make a logo that would look like some kind of crystal. So i scrap the first batch and made another, now closely resembling a crystal. I submit it for checking and got good feedback, so I decide to refine it.

I tried looking at the silhouette of the newest logo I made, but it doesn't look good (silhouette is what your logo would look like at it's barest form e.g. black and white). I wanted the silhouette to be clear and recognizable even in its barest form, so I decide to once again scrap the logo and make another one (yes, I tend to scrap multiple designs at once)

I decided that making a silhouette first and improving from there is the way to go, so I go back and make another design.
This is what I came up with:

as you can see, the logo is recognizable even when it's in it's barest form. But it doesn't resemble a crystal, so I refine the silhouette and add some details:

I submit it for checking, and the feedback was: "make it red!" I went with several different shades of red before I arrived at the final color pass (image below)

I then add type and that's it!

I hope you like the final output and had fun reading about the process. Leave a comment, upvote, resteem if you'd like to see more of this.

I bid you farewell this time,
