I recently made a few posts on social media offering logos (and other graphics help) to people who needed it. It was a “pay what you want” offer because i really don’t do this for a living. I just look to cover some of the expenses for software, and licensing of some services that offer the elements that i use for the logos.
Some paid a little, a few paid some more and many paid nothing, but that is to expected i guess, and i am very grateful for the few donations that I did recieve. I am happy to have made others happy. Looking at the bright side, I also feel that i have learned a lot through this, not only graphic wise, but mostly about communicating with many people at once!

La Mixology
This is a startup in London, trying to launch a service that delivers mixed drinks to your door. Its a really interesting and cool idea that i wanted to help out with. I started with a few logos, got an idea of what worked, and then did a few more to pin down the right idea. They have not yet decided on a final logo, but its a work in progress for now, and its going well!
K Jeleni
K Jeleni is a catering company in Kroatia. They wanted a better logo than their current one, and I made a few examples for them to point towards the right direction. We pretty fast pinned it down to the Rhombus styled container with a loose font.
Croco Divers
Croco Divers was the first one to get in touch about my pay what you can/want campaign. He has plans on starting a diver channel on Youtube, and had some good ideas for his logo. We slowly moved towards the right choice and i did some mockups of the logo on clothing, to explain why i believe it’s best to not include a background on a logo.
Spark Racing
Spark has a very new racing team that currently mostly races GT3 cars on iRacing. They were open to mosly anything, but wanted an animal to be used as part of their liveries. They prefered not to have eagles though, because many other teams (in Germany) already use those. It ended up with the Lion, that i also made as a text only logo and an isolated lion, that they can use on their livery and also flip so that it works on both sides of the car.
Un Centavo
Un Centavo, means one cent. This is a blog for financial advice, and ways to save money. The slogan is: Each cent counts. The customer had a logo already, that showed a coin, so we stuck to this. It just needed a stronger color, and a bolder feel.
Mitchel
Mitchel was the one logo that i did not manage to complete. They wanted a more complex logo, with a play of letters, using MM. They should be used as part of the logo, as well as part of the car livery. I suggested they contact a “propper” graphics designer who could do custom work like that. Personally i really look up to Alex Banks who i met through Forza, back in the day.
Wisdom Moving
Wisdom Moving wanted an elegant logo for his moving company. He started as a service only, helping people load their own or rented trucks. The company has grown though, and needs a more professional look
BD Welding
BD Welding has a small company for mobile welding. We managed to point it down to a more rough style, and moved towards the graffiti and marker style towards the end.
ACUK Racing
ACUK was very open to any suggestions really, so i made these for the racing team. They discussed it for a while and decided to go with the one with the pistons. I made the logo in 3 versions, so that it coule be used as a whole, but also as only text. I also made one with no background effect. All of them have transparent backgrounds.
Attendis
Attendis likes wolves. So i made a few suggestions, and it really mostly boiled down to what lettering to use. It ended up being a softer version of the fonts i chose, but all in all looked very nice!
I made the final adjustements, so that Attendis got a combined logo, the wolf alone as well as the text alone.
It’s been a busy couple of days, making logos for people who need them, but i have had fun making them. If you ever need a logo for your team, car, business, idea, website, channel etc. let me know! I’d love to have a go at it!
