In this tutorial, I’ll show you my complete animal logo design process — from finding the right photo reference to sketching, vectorizing, and building a full presentation.

You’ll see how I:

Trace a real animal photo using tracing paper on my phone

Transform that sketch into a clean, geometric vector logo in Adobe Illustrator

Finish everything in Kittl, adding typography, textures, and mockups to bring the logo to life
