GMS1122 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Hey guys, so the title is pretty self explanatory here... I'm working on a Cavs shirt and I came up with this idea. Wouldn't it be cool if I could recreate Lebron James' signature dunk, but being executed by an actual Cavalier?I wanted to get some extra eyes on it before making any print decisions, and also give myself a chance to step back and re-evaluate it's composition.Would love to hear everyone's comments and criticisms.Thanks!

ramsjetsthunder Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Not much else could be done better here. Maye put a sword in his empty hand, but other than that, Amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BucksFan5 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 I don't know how a sword would look in the hand, maybe make it look like he has one holstered. Looks good to me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockstar Matt Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 I think it's fantastic. I might have to buy myself a shirt with this logo even though I don't care for the Cavs. Cowboys - Lakers - LAFC - USMNT - LA Rams - LA Kings - NUFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martymcfry Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Fantastic, though I wish the Cavs would get rid of navy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadojoker Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 All I see is this...whenever I see the Cavs without navy. Please keep blue or navy incorporated into Cavs identity. Or keep the black that's prevalent in that image. Something to offset the yellow/red.Can't unseen old Tampa Bay Buccaneers (the horrible and inhumane terrible teams).

T-ROY Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 I agree that a sword could be added. I'd watermark this as well, just to be safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 I think adding navy in place of black would work, but i think the logo as is works. I'd probably raise the cape and extend it to the rear slightly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsherald Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 I like the idea and the execution, but I wonder if the feet could be positioned a bit differently, to make it look less like he's skipping along? Use the rules of heraldry for more effective sports logos! i.e. keep it simple, use good contrast... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something to offset the yellow/red.Can't unseen old Tampa Bay Buccaneers (the horrible and inhumane terrible teams).I agree, the Cavs have to have a dark color like navy blue to offset the classic wine and gold. I actually like navy as an alternate but as a primary color, I would say no. Too many red/blue teams in the league. Just one before I die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrcollis714 Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 That looks great! Should be the Cavs primary.

mattb6 Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 When/where can I buy this? It looks fantastic, but I do agree that a sword could be added. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMS1122 Posted May 17, 2015 Author Share Posted May 17, 2015 Thanks all for the comments, should have some updates to share this evening. I agree with most that a sword/dagger is necessary as well as some more dynamic motion. Stay tuned GMS on dribbbleErie Apparel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMS1122 Posted May 18, 2015 Author Share Posted May 18, 2015 Here's where we stand...Added a bit of a shear to help with it looking so static. Made minor adjustments to face and highlights, and added a dagger on his hip...Keep the great feedback coming, guys! I really enjoy hearing it.

PaperThin Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 I don't really like how his right (his left) hand is shaped, because it looks a lot like a paw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kansas sports fan Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 I think that the sword should be longer (more like a sword, less like a dagger). I also agree with PaperThin that his hand needs to be revised. Overall I really like it, it would be a great look for the Cavaliers. This might literally be the best concept that I have ever seen on here (literally, not like the crazies that say "omg that is mazing!!!!!!!! send that to there team rite now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! best iv everr seen on this bord," I genuinally think that it is a great concept). Acts 16:31 - And they replied: "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved, you and your household."John 3:16 - "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life."John 14:6 - Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate the compliments, but there have been many other concepts here over the years much more worthy of that accolade!
