Documents Wot I Dun

This is a logo put together for an entirely ficticious something-or-other known only as BadPig. I came up with this logo in much the same way as I came up with my own HEXdidn't... logo, and I quite like it. I was just sitting around idle one day, and the cartoon pig suddenly occurred to me, so I drew it out - got it right first time, too! As for the name, it was originally Naughty Pig, but then I remembered a PlayStation developer called Naughty Dog, and changed it. The choice of font was basic, clear and no-nonsense, but then seemed a little dull behind the colour picture, so I rippled it in PhotoShop.

As with a lot of things, it's a mixture of scanned artwork and CorelDraw fiddling. Unlike most of my other images, though, the colouring of the pig was done in PhotoShop (the agency told me to keep practicing, so why not?). The pig image was originally going to include a trotter making a particular gesture, but I later decided that it was neither a worthwhile addition nor a desirable one.
