    Band name: Kwelduvel
    Genre: (Post-)black metal/ acoustic
    influences: Alcest, Agalloch, Amesoeurs, Lantlos
    Sounds like: Melancholic acoustic music and slow lo-fi (depressive black) metal
    What I'm looking for: A simple, easily-readable logo, maybe inspired by the logos of Alcest and Agalloch.
    Preferred colors: White logo on black background (maybe a white gif with no background?)

    mail me if you're going to try or have tried, please :)
    snoodaerd@hotmail.com

    Thanks!

    Drip effect on the text. Can also remove the skull image if not to your liking.

    Thanks for the attempt, but it's not quite what I'm looking for :) Something more 'avant-garde' like the Agalloch and Alcest logo would be awesome. The logos of Lantlôs and Amesoeurs are nice aswell.

    Btw, I'm scanning through the forum right now :)

    Hardly ever do rock band logos but thought i'd give it a try anyway.

    Is this what you're looking for?

    It's better than the previous one, but it's not 'natural' enough. + I wouldn't do the spray can - kind of thing.
    It's not bad man :) Thanks for trying btw!

    I need to do a bit of tidying on it, as there are stray parts, what format do you need?

    Well, the biggest I need would be for the banner on my myspace page, so it doesn't really have to be big.
    I could use a gif with no background aswell actually.

    I really appreciate it by the way. Very nice of you to make me a logo since I'm new and I can't pay etc.

    Here you go;
    1st is a jpeg (right click on it and save as)
    2nd is a PNG (transparent background)
    3rd is what the PNG would look on another colour, just an example
