Funkatron101 Posted September 4, 2014 Author Share Posted September 4, 2014 I like the Clippers Logo but does give the soccer vibe. To me the real issue with it is the perspective of the Anchor it seem very upright will everything else in the logo has a perspective.Good point, I'll look into that.

aeargle Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I see the soccer argument, but it doesn't seem any more soccer-like to me than: Dribbble | Website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Replaced year with compass.all 4 steps are steps in the right direction.wave needed some work, and now it's perfect. And don't mind us saying this looks like a soccer logo, it's not a bad thing. Personally I like this approach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbannon92 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Great update. I didn't comment on the first version, but my biggest problems were the wave and the year, so I'm glad to see those fixed. I don't mind that it's very soccer crest-like, because it's a unique look in the NBA.

Funkatron101 Posted September 5, 2014 Author Share Posted September 5, 2014 Is the beveled edge overkill? I'm thinking about eliminating that darker red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkychewbarky Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I like the bevelled edge.On a larger or embroidered application the bevel would look really sharp.Perhaps for black and white or smaller usage the bevel could be eliminated...Maybe you'd have 2 versions.I think this is far better than what they have now.It really suggests the nautical theme that the Clippers name is all about.Very nice! *The Battle of Seattle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funkatron101 Posted September 5, 2014 Author Share Posted September 5, 2014 Remove the bevelI have the native file at home, but this is a quick photoshop of it without the bevel. I think it looks better, personally. Although the anchor looks a little plain now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it looks better, personally. Although the anchor looks a little plain now.Very nice logo (once again!). I'm just not sure about the beveling because I have to agree with you that the anchor indeed looks a little plain now. That's no big deal at all because the logo still looks great, but I have to say it looks better with it. “Never argue with an idiot!

I think that will achieve some definition without the need of adding another color. White, red-orange, light cyan, cyan. That should be enough.

YMolina4 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Dude; the logos you've done so far have been absolutely awesome! The Clips and Pacers are both great work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funkatron101 Posted September 6, 2014 Author Share Posted September 6, 2014 Soo...I just can't leave things alone. My original idea was to create a logo with an actual clipper ship. Then I realized how complicated they actually look, and while I think the Tampa Bay Bucs do a pretty good job with their pirate ship, it still seems pretty busy. Too busy for what I had in mind.I got the inspiration bug to take another crack at it. Still aiming to keep it pretty simple. Let me know what you think.In an effort to keep the colors down to four, I ditched the cyan and kept the light cyan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funkatron101 Posted September 6, 2014 Author Share Posted September 6, 2014 annnd because it's not really a clipper ship without a boatload of sails. Which makes the ball lines in the sun out of the question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparkychewbarky Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 You've done a great job on the ship, Funk. No complaints...But my vote goes to the anchor.It's such a cool, iconic, simple shape.The Clips should take ownership of it.Again, nicely done...great series. *The Battle of Seattle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
