It's been more than two weeks since I've finally moved permanently to California, USA. Before the big move I was playing with Illustrator and Photoshop to create a vintage look badge. After a few hours trying different typefaces I got a nice result and published it on my Dribbble profile.
I have received quite a few emails since I published that asking me how I did the effect, so in this tutorial I will show you how to create a vintage look badge using Illustrator and Photoshop
The wallpaper of this week is an illustration created by Domenico Marazia, a grahic designer, art director and illustrator from Italy. Domenico runs a really cool called illustrascarpe. where he shares his thoughts and experiments.
