Wallpaper Season - Vintage Logo Schedule

Submitted by jonvalk on

Final wallpaper until Notre Dame and probably the last "schedule"-themed wallpaper I will do until basketball season.  I was working on honing some skills creating "embroidered" logos and decided to give the ol' vintage wolverine logo a go.  I like how it turned out (it actually kind of looks embroidered!) and I think it may fit the taste of MGoBlog a bit more than my previous schedule wallpaper.

Enjoy!

This was all done exclusively in Photoshop. I used work paths, along with a custom brush I created to make the somewhat threaded look (it still needs work), and then used layering with various embossing effects to create the feeling of depth. I then did some shadowing work to make it pop a bit. Honestly, the logo alone took two hours (I was experimenting - first time doing this effect), so I'm honestly not sure of the exact order of everything. It's very rewarding to get it to look the way you want. The actual vintage logo (the unfinished/un-stylized version) that I used as reference is obviously NOT my creation.

I have the Iphone5. How do I copy it? I tried the normal way...nothing.



I'll click on it...it fills the screen...then I'll try to copy but the 'copy' box is blank. I guess I'm doing it wrong. Help would be nice. Thanks in advance.
