Anzac Commemoration

[iamtheblues]

This weekend has seen the 100th anniversary of the Gallipoli Landings and throughout Australia and New Zealand there have been many remembrance services.
Anzac stands for Australia New Zealand Army Corps and on Saturday I watched two rugby matches in both countries with very moving services prior to the matches.
Painted on the pitch was a logo for these events.
I tried googling the design, but drew a blank. So I took a screen grab from the Brumbies v Highlanders in Sydney, from Australia and New Zealand respectively, which I was watching on my desktop and I used that as the basis for the logo. Unfortunately the camera angle wasn't positioned over the logo, so the image was distorted and also clipped at the top and partially obscured by the participants (see second image which has had the original Veneer text superimposed upon it.).
I used fonts that fairly closely resembled the lettering (Veneer for the main word and Myriad Pro Black for the subsidiary part). I had to do a lot of work on the Anzac part, by adding a contour and reshaping/skewing the individual letters. Then I had to use my imagination to draw it as it would have been seen directly from above.
I was pleased with the result, so I thought I'd share it with you here.
Bob.

It looks pretty accurate, but is the ANZAC supposed to look rough while everything else looks smooth? I'm not familiar with the organization at all, but overall looks like a pretty good adaptation considering the source. Nice job.

Missed this post Bob. Firstly a big salute to all those Anzacs. That's an excellent reproducution of the logo taken as it is from an angled photo/screen-grab.

Great looking reproduction from what you had to work with, Bob.

Looks really good Bob. Looks very accurate.

Apart from the font being a bit thicker than what I see in the original, I think you did a great job.
I like it.
