Hey everyone, so today I want to talk about something that I tried out recently – creating the Nike and Fox logos. It was a fun little project, and I figured I’d share my process with you all.

Nike/Fox Logo: How to Tell the Difference Between Two Famous Brand Symbols?

First things first, I started with the Nike logo. I mean, who doesn’t recognize that swoosh, right? I did a bit of digging around to understand its history. Turns out, it was designed way back in 1971 by Carolyn Davidson. Back then, Nike used to be called “Blue Ribbon Sports”, and its logo was just the initials “BRS” intertwined. Pretty wild, huh?

Then, I got down to actually drawing it. I started by sketching the outline of the swoosh on paper. It looks like a checkmark, but it’s also supposed to represent movement and speed. I tried to get the curve just right, you know, make it look dynamic. I erased and redrew it a few times until I was happy with it.

After I had the basic shape down, I decided to make it digital. I took a picture of my sketch and imported it into a drawing app on my tablet. I used the pen tool to trace over the sketch, smoothing out the lines and making it look more polished. It felt pretty good to see my rough sketch turn into a clean, digital logo.

  • Sketching the swoosh on paper.
  • Getting the curve just right to convey movement.
  • Taking a picture and importing it into a drawing app.
  • Using the pen tool to trace and smooth out the lines.

Next up was the Fox logo. Now, the fox is known for being cunning and clever, and that’s what I wanted to capture in the design. I started by sketching a fox head. I made the eyes look sharp and intelligent, and I gave it a sly grin. I wanted it to look like a fox that’s always one step ahead.

Once I was happy with the fox head, I moved on to the body. I drew a sleek, agile-looking fox, ready to pounce. I made sure the tail was bushy and prominent, just like a real fox. After I had the whole fox sketched out, I went through the same process of digitizing it. I took a picture, imported it into the drawing app, and traced over it with the pen tool. I played around with different colors and shades until I found a combination that looked just right.

  • Drawing a sleek, agile fox body with a bushy tail.
  • Digitizing the sketch using the drawing app.
  • Experimenting with colors and shades.

The Outcome

At the end of it all, I had two pretty cool logos. The Nike swoosh, simple yet powerful, and the Fox logo, capturing the essence of the animal. I printed them out and stuck them on my wall. Every time I look at them, I remember the fun I had creating them and the little things I learned about logo design along the way. It’s not just about drawing something that looks good, it’s about telling a story and capturing an idea in a single image.

So, that’s my little logo-making adventure. It wasn’t too complicated, but it was definitely a lot of fun. I hope you enjoyed hearing about it, and maybe it’ll inspire you to try your hand at designing a logo yourself!
