ITV 1989 Recreations

I have recreated some 1989 ITV Generic idents by using Paint.NET. It took me only a few hours to make them, but here they are:

At present, only the start points of the 1989 idents have been recreated, the finishing points of the idents (featuring the ITV logo) will be recreated later.

That's excellent! Great job there.
The only issue is with the TVS one. The logo is correct, is just the quality of the image does not match the others. Apart from that, everything is great!

The blue wavy backgrounds need to be a bit darker, but other than that, good recreation.

Very good recreations, well done!

By the way, you don't have to say that you "only" did something in a couple of hours. Technically if you really knew what you were doing you could come up with a masterpiece in an hour.

4 stars, looking forward to seeing more of this.

All the graphic design classics were just knocked up in an hour, I'm sure...

Everyone, I have now recreated the ending points of the 1989 ITV idents. These idents use the ITV logo and were recreated by me with Paint.NET and with plenty of time to spare. The triangles in the idents contain the best features of the franchise holder's logo. The features and designs vary depending on the franchise holder. I have also recreated a Central ident from 1990 that has both the full Central Cake logo and the ITV Central triangle logo. Here they are.

Again, a very good recreation. 4 stars!

I have now recreated the 1989 ITV logo with the "Get Ready" slogan seen at the end of a 1989 promo for ITV. Here it is.

Not exactly rocket science.

Can I respectfully suggest, Lukesam3, that you use what you've added to this thread as a benchmark for any future mocks you post. If they're not as good as these, please don't post them.

Your mocks/recreations in this thread are actually quite good and faithful to the original look. This proves to me that you can actually do a fairly decent job on whatever package you're using to make these and I suspect your main problem with the other mocks outside this thread are caused by your rushing them.

(edited) - looks like Luke's account has gone. Ah well.
