Art My Version Of The Corkus Logo (a View Into A Designers Process)

Hello everyone today I've been working on my own version of the Corkus logo as interpreted from the banners on Corkus Island.

as promised I would include the process of the next designs in my future posts.
So today I want to take you with me into my process!

Also, keep an eye out on my youtube channel since I will be uploading the speed art of this logo design very soon! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8prjBmr1MDONRv0vN6tDKg

Inventory:


Before I started designing I made a summary of the different things I saw in the original design of the banner, Here I wrote down all the attributes the icon had what I thought they were and what I would make of it. I wrote down alternative looks for certain components of the banner.

Notes:


Once I had a general idea I started sketching some quick and easy versions of the logo I had in mind.

Sketches:


Once I had the general sketch I started designing in my illustrative program. Since I am planning on uploading a speed art I won't show iterations of the logo.

Now for the fun part! The actual result.



I wanted to include an eye to get that spiritual vibe, to get the logo to look ''astrological'' I needed to include either, either a sun, moon, or stars I chose stars with path-way line art to get a mystic astrological vibe.
To keep everything consistent I went with the usual ''golden'' gradient for the logo mark and dark background.
But for the trained eye, you would see there is a texture in the background as well, Just to amplify the luxurious look the logo already has.

Thank you for reading this post, And I hope to see you at the next one!

Kind regards,

Nigel

 

yet again in any logo that related to wynncraft contains some sort of eye...
that's shows us how big storyline figure The Eye is.

 

I think it has to do with the original wynncraft logos containing that very same type of eye and thus somewhat becoming an iconic vector related to wynncraft. Which in it's turn gets lots of feature time in game.

 

That eye was actually a reference to the eye, which existed in the lore for a long time

 

I never finished a whole class playthrough, But is it the eye on top of the eldritch look out?

 

The gray circle in the middle is supposed to be a cog, but this is still neat

 

what they said, neat :)

 

Yes, but there also was a bunch of references to it in gavel. Idk if they still exist after 1.20.

 

I know, but I liked an eye and solar ray lines more since that fits my theme of logos.

 

No, the eye being everywhere isn't a brand or image related decision by Wynncraft. A lot of the secret discoveries, quests, dialogues and lore within the game refer to the eye (Wynnexcavation quest of series, for example).

Also, adding the eye on the middle was an interesting take on the logo, but from what I interpret, the shape in the middle of the banner is a cog.

Looks someone above already commented this, so I would like to see from you a metal cog version of the logo perhaps with a small ruby incrusted eye in the middle. Perhaps the circle shape surrounding the eye on your current logo could be changed to a cog
