Retro Logo

Renasci

I'm looking to create a retro style logo that looks like this:


I was going to do the type in Illustrator and stroke a path with an art brush. Can anyone suggest any other strategies? And specific brushes?

There's a whole range of brushes you can download on the internet, but what I'd do is use details of the font you're using for the type (e.g. I, l, |, -, _, ... are all ideal for making strokes). If you use those as your basis the result will look much more coherent.

cool retro, pop, shock look! What is the logo your making for?

I'm not making a logo at the moment. I just need to know a strategy for creating this radical retro style type because it's a style I want to get into.
