too much trendy,

break it down,

ask why you did each thing,

what does it achieve,

and then ask what you want it to achieve.

Just doing this for a learning experience really.
Once I get something I like and I'm happy with and I say that I personally made it I want to recreate the letters separately and get them printed on a canvas.
4 canvases. 1 for each letter.

Why I did each thing?
There wasn't really much done.
Texture was added because the letters on a blank back/grey background looked too boring to me and it was the easiest way to get rid of that problem.
The way the text is written is to show that it's bold, just really liked how it looks.
The design in the text I just thought looked really cool and colorful. Nothing else do that really.
I'm not sure I'm happy with the text "design" being where it is. I added it to show that I personally made this and that it is my creation.

I'm thinking about removing it from that spot though and maybe making it look engraved into the wall above "AVID"


Not sure what you meant by your post at all.. but um.... ya.

reflection is still wrong lololololololol

halp.

The bottom right of the A defs shouldn't have the edge clipped like that.

Yeah. The clipping implies elevation.
Also noticed the strokes are going in the wrong direction.

Well, a reflection in nature would have the strokes going the same way.

Also another thing that's kind of bothering me are the inner edges. There's no angle change on the stroke, the edge is done purely with lighting. Ruins the 3D look for me.
