Yes, at a glance it looks like nothing. Focus on it and it just looks odd. The type and the shape.

I have similar feelings about the logo. Its supposed to be the cows nostrils right?

Btw, pasteurized or raw milk? :)

it took me a minute to see the cow with only one ear as the logo... maybe give it a body and convert the F and r to the cream color so not to blend in w/the body and e s h the way it is...

Thanks for the feedback, the logo defiantly needs some improvement.

heres something new, I haven't came up with a headline for it yet. Hoping to get some ideas, and I'm probably going to change the font of the headline.

Please critic

The background says concert more than furniture to me. What clientele does the company want to cater to? What type of furniture do they sell? Where will these posters be shown? I could crit more, but not without some back story on the design.

I actually got the cow right away when I saw it and then I noticed the m to the left of the eyes and it said moo. I thought that was pretty clever. I'm getting the impression that you don't want it to be so obvious but at the same time, maybe you can make the shape a little clearer for people to see. The only thing that looks odd to me is that Fresh is vertical. I kind of feel like I have to tilt my head to read it. I think that would be better horizontal. Also, being more specific on the bottle would help. I'm getting the impression that this is chocolate milk because it has the brown spots. Maybe you can specify that on the bottle itself. If you want it to be regular milk, maybe use black instead of the brown spots.

I would like to give feedback on the design work:

I like the creativity of the 'moo' logo but the font is... unattractive. Try something more... thick. Curvier. Tasty. Something that makes people go 'Mmmm....' just by looking at it.

The colors... well, it's okay though a more browner (as in natural chocolate brown) color would be better.


As for the poster, it's... flat. What I mean is, the vector graphic doesn't complement the photo of the bottle though some experimenting with the white strokes shows creativity. The lights' direction is the catalyst here - no shade on the chocolate liquid and the light reflections are off, making the liquid looking very flat. Also, the chocolate milk gushing up looks... odd. I don't know if the bottle and the chocolate bars are dropping or 'jumping' up.

I suggest looking at photos of liquid motion, look onto ads that uses a liquid scheme or just plain chocolate labels and observe it's design. Then dissect it in your head and built them back in whatever software you have for designing. Make sure you understand WHY it was made that way and what for.


As for the furniture poster, the photos are small as if they are a minority. Make them bigger so that they are more visible. The background's a bit too busy with all the textures and patterns going on. I suggest to go for minimalism here; don't use too much effects as it'll distracts the viewers' eye.

Darkstar: thanks

istmin52: thanks for the feedback. Your getting the impression that its chocolate milk because it is chocolate milk. The moo defiantly needs work. I'll update it soon.

zeejay: thanks for the feedback. I agree that the moo would look better with a thicker font, I'll give it a try. For the milk i wasn't going for realistic splashes, but a more suggestive look. I agree that they look flat and need some work.

Oh so it is chocolate milk. lol. Maybe you should indicate that on the bottle label or something.
