MORE  IDEAS: 

I started sketching some badges as well. 

What do you think?

UPDATE:

I started working on some different ideas, using the texturing techniques from the videos. It's far from finished - I still have to clean up the grainyness. The headline for this image was "Attitude world wide"

UPDATE: 

I've moved on to illustrator and photoshop. I've been trying some different approaches. What do you guys think? 

During this week i worked on several sketches and ideas. I started of with my name in very simple way - this is the final sketch i made - i kinda like the flow of it. 

I also started working on some sketches for a clothing brand, that some friends of mine are working on. I wanted to create a vintage "american garage / mechanic" feeling, and at the same time add some "hands on" vibes to the (very quick) sketches. I found a lot of inspiration, and ended out with doing these three sketches. I wish I had more time to show you guys the entire process, but unfortunately I've got to work, so I'll have to get back to that later. 

Any suggestions or critique?
