RWH Investigations

This gentleman called me needing more business cards. He just needed a graphic designer to reproduce his card digitally to send to a printer because he didn't have art. But of course, I wanted a shot at redesigning it. He wanted to keep the illustration so I scanned it and brought it into Illustrator and turned it into a vector file. I changed the color and added a drop shadow for more drama. American Typewriter is the font I chose. It has a vintage feel and seemed to fit perfectly. He wasn't interested in a logo, so I just set his company name in the same font. A thumbprint was added for interest and the whole thing is anchored with a nice gradient.
