    I know it might be a complicated design, but can someone tell me how I can make a metal/silver/chrome logo like mercedes, honda, hyundai and so on? They have similar looks. I already started with the linear gradient and 4 stops: like 2 dark greys, 1 light grey, 1 white. I added a shadow too. I think I would need to know how to do those inner rings well so it actually looks like a metal logo. Does somebody know how to do the whole thing?

    I'm no artist, but I've seen it done. Search the web for "metallic chrome svg" and you'll find examples for guidance/ inspiration/ imitation/ theft. Among those results I found a Honda logo but I didn't sign in to download it.

    Closer to home, there are quite a few glossy reflective surfaces in these images.
