To start I made the realization that a lot of this logo is trace and resize. The first thing I did was trace the grey and green background.
I realized that a good idea would be to cut out the grey outline of the eagle since there is already a grey background.
As i went on layer by layer, I stumbled upon my first hardship. The eagles eye. Dun dunn dunnnn...
It was hard for me to do because of all the different curves going in different directions.
The next thing I got stuck on were the lettering for PHILADELPHIA. It took me about an hour just to figure out how to go about doing it. This was difficult for me because when I zoom in on the letters, they get very pixelated. so pixelated that it's hard to trace.
Eventually I figured it out.
As i was tracing along, i realized that my smart thing to do was a not so smart thing to do.
When it was time to complete the black background of the EAGLES lettering, the black is supposed to fall behind the grey outline,
and it didn't. To solve this problem i had to trace a grey strip to cover it up
In the end, I ended up with this :)
