"Hello there! My name is Byron and I’m from Malaysia. This is my "first time ever" complete art using Adobe Illustrator. I never get the chance to learn deeply about AI but I’m really interested in illustrator especially Vector art. So this is my logo which I trace from my very own logo. So I’m not really satisfied with myself because I only trace this image out as I’m not good in AI. Anyway here it is! P.S: For anyone out there that willing to share knowledge about AI with me, please do share with me and teach me how to improve in using AI! Please teach me more about AI! Thank You!! :D"
