Logo Design Tutorial Using CorelDraw

This is the logo I’m going to teach you. This tutorial is done in CorelDraw X4 version. But I’m sure this can be done using most of previous and newer CorelDraw versions like CorelDraw 12,  CorelDraw X3, CorelDraw X5, CorelDraw X6 and CorelDraw X7 etc…
This is not very hard tutorial. Little knowledge about CorelDraw will be enough to complete this.

Draw a circle using Ellipse Tool. Fill it any color.

Remove outline by right clicking on X sign at color palate.

Get a duplicate copy of the circle by pressing + sign of NUM pad.
Reduce the size of the created circle holding shift key. Fill it with different color.
While pick tool is selected press and hold shift key and click on each circle to select both circle.
Now press Back Minus Front from the tool bar.

shapes are selected. (to align centers vertically and horizontally.)

Select bigger part and fill it using fountain fill dialog box.



Select the bigger part and choose Extrude Tool. Make something like this by adjusting Extrude handle. Set depth to 3.

Now select blue color shape. Use Interactive Fill Tool to give it a gradient like this.


Now Select the Interactive Extrude Tool. Click on the Blue shape.
Click on Copy Extrude Properties button. Now carefully click on Extruded area on the other shape.



Now I'm going to add little bit of drop shadow.
Draw a ellipse under the logo using Ellipse Tool. Fill it with black.
 
Press convert to bitmap at the Bitmaps menu. Press OK for the dialog box.

Add Gaussian blur effect for the ellipse.

Radius set to 54 and press OK.

Give about 80 of uniform transparency.
