derschwigg Posted August 1, 2015 Author Share Posted August 1, 2015 Hey again! This one is a bit of a departure for me, as it's the first one I've ever really repurposed a logo. I cleaned up a good deal of the line work and, I feel, really modernized the feel of the logo without terribly destroying it. I may revisit the team for a more "clean slate rebrand" like I've been doing for some time now, but I'm really happy with how this one turned out. Subtle as the changes may be, I assure you, it is a new logo.Here's the faux-back Celtics! My Portfolio | My Store | My Self Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRed618 Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Good modernization. I especially like the new shade of gold you used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOPATRIOTS Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Wow, probably the best clean up of the Celtics logo I've ever seen! I may even like this better than their current logo. Nice work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derschwigg Posted August 3, 2015 Author Share Posted August 3, 2015 Here's the edit on the Raptors - it's tough adding a highlight to a tongue, but I hope the added depth helps! My Portfolio | My Store | My Self Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTswag187 Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Personally I would've eliminated all the gold from the Celtics logo, but you did a great job on updating a classic. With the Raptors it doesn't make sense how the neck has a more flowing look while the head has a very boxy 90s look. I'm also not a fan of the wordmark, it looks like something out of a spiderman movie. But that could be the black backround. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derschwigg Posted August 3, 2015 Author Share Posted August 3, 2015 Here's a rounded version - personally, I think it loses a good deal of the dino-vibe with the rounded brow and snout. It doesn't look as menacing to me.Thoughts? My Portfolio | My Store | My Self Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartan24898 Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 I think the smooth look still looks menacing enough, but it looks strange right now because the eye, mouth, and lower jaw are still boxy. If you really like the boxy look, you could go in the opposite direction and extend that to the neck instead of smoothing the head. I think I'd prefer the smooth look because, as JTswag187 said, the boxy look feels a little outdated, but I think either would be ok as long as it's consistent.

derschwigg Posted August 3, 2015 Author Share Posted August 3, 2015 Personally, I hate this rendition, but playing devil's advocate and seeing how it looks, here's the rounded snout. My Portfolio | My Store | My Self Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidmiller5 Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Others have mentioned the tongue, and I don't know what is best to do with it...but it looks odd to me too. The way it rises at the end and is pointed makes it look like a snake or dragon tongue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePeam Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 I don't like the rounded versions, I like the second version the best so far. Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suplauren Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 IMO the raptor's neck extends too far. I also don't really think you need the 2 jagged points to it. I'd say simplify the neck down to one short swoosh and it'll improve.The yellow you've picked for the Lakers looks a little greenish to me. Was that intentional? I think making it a more gold hue would be nicer.I love the Suns wordmark, it looks very classy. laurenlogos.tumblr.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnice Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I like the Suns. I've usually liked most versions since the old days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
