The Logo was created as a vector file\u00c2\u00a0 in Flash, but taken to Photoshop for the glassy effects.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2082\" title=\"modelbuilderslogo\" src=\"http:\/\/fichtenfoo.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/modelbuilderslogo.png\" alt=\"modelbuilderslogo\" width=\"460\" height=\"168\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fichtenfoo.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/modelbuilderslogo.png 460w, https:\/\/fichtenfoo.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/modelbuilderslogo-100x36.png 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 460px) 100vw, 460px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2092\" title=\"modelbuilderslogothumbs\" src=\"http:\/\/fichtenfoo.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/modelbuilderslogothumbs.png\" alt=\"modelbuilderslogothumbs\" width=\"440\" height=\"140\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fichtenfoo.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/modelbuilderslogothumbs.png 440w, https:\/\/fichtenfoo.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/modelbuilderslogothumbs-100x31.png 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 440px) 100vw, 440px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"subhead\">Scale Model HQ<\/p>\n<p>After seeing the Model Builders logo above, a friend of Mr. Havican&#8217;s contacted me regarding creating a logo for his website. He loved the glass look of Marc&#8217;s and wanted a similar finish. He already knew that he wanted the words formatted as seen below, <em>scale<\/em> above <em>model <\/em>and next to <em>HQ<\/em>, but the rest was up to me. I asked if he was interested in any imagery with the logo and he mentioned several modeling tools that he wouldn&#8217;t mind seeing. I sent him the thumbnails and he chose the one with the airbrush as the Q&#8217;s line. He wanted to see the HQ in a serif font though. So after a few more revisions with the font and colors, the logo was finalized as seen below. He (and his wife) were very happy with the result. While seen here over my background color, this logo will be placed over a black background I&#8217;m told as soon as his site is completed.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2139\" title=\"scalemodelhqlogo1\" src=\"http:\/\/fichtenfoo.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/scalemodelhqlogo1.png\" alt=\"scalemodelhqlogo1\" width=\"350\" height=\"145\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fichtenfoo.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/scalemodelhqlogo1.png 350w, https:\/\/fichtenfoo.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/scalemodelhqlogo1-100x41.png 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2116\" title=\"Scale Model HQ ideas\" src=\"http:\/\/fichtenfoo.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/scalemodelhqlogothumbs.png\" alt=\"Scale Model HQ ideas\" width=\"433\" height=\"75\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fichtenfoo.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/scalemodelhqlogothumbs.png 433w, https:\/\/fichtenfoo.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/scalemodelhqlogothumbs-100x17.png 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 433px) 100vw, 433px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Interested in a logo design? <a href=\"http:\/\/fichtenfoo.net\/blog\/visual-design-contact\/\">Contact me for a quote!<\/a><\/p>\n\n<!-- Facebook Like Button v1.9.6 BEGIN [http:\/\/blog.bottomlessinc.com] -->\n<iframe src=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/like.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Ffichtenfoo.net%2Fblog%2Flogo-design-%25c2%25bb-model-builders-and-scale-model-hq%2F&amp;layout=standard&amp;show_faces=false&amp;width=450&amp;action=like&amp;colorscheme=light&amp;font=trebuchet+ms\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" allowTransparency=\"true\" style=\"border:none; overflow:hidden; width:450px; height: 30px; align: left; margin: 2px 0px 2px 3px\"><\/iframe>\n<!-- Facebook Like Button END -->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Below are a few logo designs I&#8217;ve done recently.
