Thank you, that's good advice. I'd shied away from looking at the logos of fish vs. actual fish, but it might be time for that. I didn't want to "borrow" either accidentally or otherwise, but I think I've arrived too much at too complex of a logo as you said. Back to the drawing board.
I need some constructive criticism on a Chinook Salmon logo that I made for a fictional university logo in the northwest.
The "C" shape is important, and the three colors and the university's colors. Otherwise, trying to make it more like a good logo.
I like these teams' identities (color schemes, logos, nicknames). The Flyers' side trim is nicely reflected in the third jersey. I feel like the Kings' crown trim is a little too forced; perhaps a smaller, repeated pattern?
I really enjoyed seeing your work on the South Dakota logo. Had not seen that in a long while, and it looks very fresh with how you sharpened it up! Thanks!
I know this isn't an actual font, but does someone have a suggestion about what may be a font that would be similar or imitating some of these letters? Thanks.
