AHcreative Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Hey guys. I was working on that owls concept I started awhile back and I messed with it for awhile, then I just decided to start a new concept. After watching that Rams brutal loss to the Seahawks, I started to wonder, "Hmm, I wonder what we would look like if we would have gotten that expansion bid?". So, here it is. I took the official colors from the SSUR site and darkened them a little. So here's the logo for now, notice the nod to the Rams with the stallion's mouth, which is pretty much the same as the mouth on the Rams logo. I'll probably post some uniform concepts in the near future as well. Comments would be great guys. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fixer Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 i like it, only critiques:looks to much like broncos, with the jaw pattern the sameand you said you darkened to colors but the blue is now purple and id go with the dark blueid also change the eye a bit, maybe actually make that CLOSER to the bronco's eye, try no pupilotherwise awesome, you should make some uni's for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I noticed the similarities, I used the Broncos logo as a reference, I guess I made it a little too similar. The eye though is one of my favorite features though, but I'll do some updates and definitely do some unis later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
officeglenn Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Something feels out of whack with this. I think the mane might be a little too big in proportion to the head, and I'm quite certain the ear should be bigger. The mane feels a bit detached from the rest of the head too; maybe if you reduced the amount of purple in between, or got rid of it altogether.

CDixonDesign Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 I agree with what's been said, way too "broncos style"...Try using the logo instead of a template, as more of a guide for an idea, maybe using a different perspective, but referring back to the Broncos logo as what you can include for features, shadowing, etc... Also, try widening the logo, I see what you were trying to do with the normal posture of the head, but it seems to narrow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackjack76 Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 I actually have the Stallions' official logo in vector format somewhere...will have to look for it. I don't know for sure, but I think the current Broncos' horse head came after the Stallions' unveiling (1994-ish?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NSL Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 I thought that current Broncos' head came out in 1997. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patchez Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 I am not sure if it is your interest, but you can easily incorporate in the mane a "S" and within the neck muscle shadows a "T and L" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackjack76 Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 I knew I had it:For those of you scoring at home, the colors are 525-purple and 872-gold. I honestly cannot remember where I found this, but I've had it for at least 10+ years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackjack76 Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 It looks like the golds are different, the eyes are different and the added gold outline is different. I highly doubt what I have is the "correct" version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee. Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Seems to me those there official Stallions logos are pretty dismal. Other than that, I really have nothing to offer, except keep at it. The whole thing feels unfinished. Welcome to DrunjFlix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brave-Bird 08 Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 this looks like you traced the broncos logo and then moved nodes around until it looked moderately different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkychewbarky Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Heitert...it looks good. You're close. Something's a little off though. Try going with just one jawline rather than the 3 that you have. Straighten the top of his head out a tad. Bring the top of his nose back straight until just before the eye. Give it a small step up to meet your existing curved line. You could try starting the mane ahead of the ears. Just out of interest, did you know that our Canadian Football League expanded into the States back around 1994-5? Baltimore had a team named the Stallions; in fact they won the CFL championship- the Grey Cup- one year. You can check out their Stallion logo in CCSLC's archives. *The Battle of Seattle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgnmrwrw Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Unfortunately, as a few people have pointed out, thisis far too similar to thisI know it's tough since the original Stallions logo came before the Broncos' redesign, but you're going to have to start from scratch if you really want a good logo that doesn't look like a rip off.

AHcreative Posted September 17, 2009 Author Share Posted September 17, 2009 Thanks for that logo Blackjack. I was always confused on what the official colors were, obviously the shirt that Mockba posted had more of a yellowish gold. Okay though, I'll go back to the drawing board with this one. I kind of thought it looked too similar to Denver's logo too, and that's why I wanted some opinions. I'll see if I can come up with something in the next week or so.

AHcreative Posted October 9, 2009 Author Share Posted October 9, 2009 So I finally got around to working on this. I thought I'd just start from scratch and this is what I have so far: I know I need to clean up the mane, I figure I can do that on the computer, but do you guys have any suggestions as to what else I should do with this before I trace it? Any and all comments would be appreciated. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
