the_grateful_ted Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Hello concept readers. This is my first concept done on my computer and this is a VERY early concept. I've run into a few obvious problems, one being the eyes. I can't seem to get them right and I'm looking for some assistance. Secondly, I need more detail or something to fill the wings but whatever I try dosen't work. I'd like to stick with these colors, as they are taken from important details of the schools history. Lastly this is not an actual school requested rebrand or anything, just done for fun in my spare time. In general I'm looking to improve my skills in photoshop and I thought this was a good way to do it. Comments and criticism (especially) are very appreciated.UPDATED FULLY >>>>> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaperThin Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 He needs the rest of his body because right now all he is is a head and wings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_grateful_ted Posted June 23, 2015 Author Share Posted June 23, 2015 Well here it is, for now updated with tail feathers and claws. Also thickened white outline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_grateful_ted Posted June 23, 2015 Author Share Posted June 23, 2015 Well I'm going to try to let this marinate after this update, but I got really excited because I figured out how to fix the beak. So I tried my best at that and then darkened the blue a tad to make it less washed out. Please give some more comments and criticism! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cocoathunder5 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Maybe Try taking out the white and putting the light blue in plavce of it and the black where the light bue was. if that makes sense but keep up the good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_grateful_ted Posted June 24, 2015 Author Share Posted June 24, 2015 Thanks cocoathunder, I actually thought of this too, but for the sake of this rebrand I'm trying to keep black to a pure accent color. I will whip something up to see how it looks though thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT221 Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 For starters, I'd either take off the black stroke or make it much thicker so it all blends together more; right now it all looks piece made. However, you're off to a really good start and keep up the good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_grateful_ted Posted June 24, 2015 Author Share Posted June 24, 2015 You mean the black stroke around the entire logo right? If so working on it now thanks for the input!Aaaaaaand here it is, full black outlines. Also messed around with the tail feathers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT221 Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Looks much better. Try switching the white and blue on the eagle as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_grateful_ted Posted June 25, 2015 Author Share Posted June 25, 2015 Here it is again! Added gold shading to make it look less flat, and i cleaned up the consistency of the black lines a bit. I still need help with the eyes though nothing seems to work.Here in original colors.Here in flipped blue/whiteI have to say I still like the original better, more comments and criticism welcome as always!
