Your logo has a nice clean touch. What font did you use?

Thanks. The font is Goudy Old Style, I like the looks of it for a logo, or even long text.

Thanks. The composition about 30min (choosing the colors and the illustrations, etc), the illustrations itself take several hours each to do, and are originally made for A0 size...

Hi,

Here is an image with all the elements used on the logo...

Image

The castle is a sketch of Almourol Castle here in Portugal, on the Templar region. The text is Goudy Old Style and the colors used, except the greys, are based on the real colors Knights Templar used: white, black (not as much) and red.

The two dates (1128 and 1312) are the official start and end dates of the Templar Order.


Regards,
Carlos Jorge
