MrWonka Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 One fix I'd make right away ..on the script the S has a small jagged edge that could easily be smoothed out to match the rest of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoughRiders99 Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Solid start. I'd like to see the jerseys first before I make a full decision on this set. And where are the list of the 6 team names? I can't find them anywhere? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I went with scorpions. Twitter: @lestoplegault - Email: Christiantlegault@gmail.com Blog: http://legaultdesigns.blogspot.ca/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billc52865 Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 S on each side of wordmark is top-heavy. Middle line of S should be level with top of other letters.Scorpion's claws are too small. Good concept,though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScreamingViking Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Decent work. I love the wordwark, but think it shouldn't be part of the primary. But the scorp on it's own is not enough.How about the scorpion facing up, with the left claw in the shape of an L and the right in the shape of a V?

jrcollis714 Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Good start, but I would change the scorpion, it kinda looks off. Favorites: Dallas Cowboys, New York Yankees, New York Rangers, New York Knicks, Cam Newton ND Irish Least Favorites: New York Giants, New York Mets, Washington Capitals, Pittsburgh Penguins, Philadelphia Eagles, OBJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wquarton Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 I initially didn't like the name, but seeing this concept I may have changed my opinion. Love the orange and black, although its kinda ripping off the ducks a little. I wonder if you could do black and yellow and see how it looks? Or orange and something else? Just a thought. Either way, they look pretty sharp. Personally I'm not a fan of having the name in the logo, so I think I'd have the secondary as the primary, but thats just me being picky.Overall, solid.

mamiller99 Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 I think the scorpion needs larger pincers. Right now it works better as a soccer badge than a hockey logo. That's what- She Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeh-see Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 I hope scorpions win the vote. It has a ton of potential, identity wise, and there aren't enough arachnid-related sports monickers and if Aces does win, it will be a tremendous disappointment, IMO. Before I knew a poll was up, my personal picks would have been scorpions, sidewinders or Mirage.on topic, your logo has a great start and a lot of promise, but still isnt quite there. For lack of a better phrase, it could use some "toughening up"~UJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timberwolf Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 The logo looks great! Word mark and everything!I can't wait for the uniforms, to make my full rendering on the set but it's a great start.I have a suggestion, though, is to add another colour, like cactus green or sunset gold to reflect the Las Vegas landscape. I think that would complete the look.Great work as always, Christian!TWolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wquarton Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 claws look a little wimpy, now that I look at it again. And like someone else said, it would be cool if it had one claw raised in a V or something like that.Still a fan though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColeJ Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 i'm a big fan of the name scorpions, and i really like the direction of this logo.my critiques:i like the pose of the scorpion, but for some reason it's torso and head look more like a crawfish to me than a scorpion.i really don't like the top-heavy S. I'd consider switching up the font entirely to something more edgey and sharp. less smooth and round.i'd also suggest a color scheme closer to the bure/maclean/ronning-era canucks, maybe with a darker and more copper/orangey red tone. maybe similar to the horse-head flames era colors, too.overall, it is a really fantastic start. i just think it is overall too passive in appearance and muted in color. i'm not suggesting putting a menacing snarl for a mouth, like an ECHL logo or anything... but scorpions are dangerous little dudes. they can kill. i'd give it a little more edge and aggressiveness.

Whitefoot Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I would change the colors to black, gold, and grey. These were the expansion team colors released to the media by the owner. http://lasvegas.suntimes.com/las-sports/7/104/159824/nhl-vegas-colors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wquarton Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I'd love to see it in a yellow-green neon colour, sort of like monster energy drink/yellow gatorade colours. Very "poison" coloured, I think it would work well with the scorpions concept. Although I guess the owner stated black gold and grey, so perhaps not. Still, I'd love to just see it.
