Ok, that was actually pretty entertaining. I didn't see a way to save or share the doodles, but I was able to print as pdf (after clicking a box for "show background" to get all the images to show). Here's mine - but obviously, don't peek until you've done it yourself: https://imgur.com/a/YxX64F3

I can't exactly say I'm proud of getting most of these right-ish, though I've never seen the snapchat logo before, or if I have no one mentioned what it was! If anything I'm disappointed in how close I was for pepsi considering I never even drink it... those ads are eyeworms I guess.

I definitely recognized the snapchat logo when I saw it - but I haven't used that app in years and it totally escaped me when I was trying to recall it on the spot. My husband also ended up drawing a bad imitation of the instagram logo (another app we don't really use) in it's place, which I thought was funny.

I still can't figure out what the heck I thought the spotify logo was. I knew it was 3 of something.

Still drawing the old Pepsi logo and I don’t know when the new logo will ever sink in

For me it was NASA, drawing the worm logo instead of the meatball. I still think abandoning the more futuristic logo was a major mistake. Good that SpaceX brought that one back.

I hope all the drawings are being logged so the followup can be "1000 attempts at the starbucks mermaid", kinda like the "draw me a sheep facing left" project: http://www.aaronkoblin.com/work/thesheepmarket/

Also relevant: Bicycles of the Velocipedia project: https://www.gianlucagimini.it/portfolio-item/velocipedia/

The bicycle one is always fun.

I suspect if you know that a bike frame is typicall two triangles for strength you’d get it right, some of those are hilarious though.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

With a mouse? I'd be impressed. With a touchpad? Still impressed. With a touchscreen? Maaaaaaybe but wow tedious.

Tried it with a stylus and with a touch screen: neither were supported.

Eh?I just finished drawing them all on a touchscreen. Android phone to be specific.

Only problem was I don't know how to draw
