hettinger_rl Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Is there a way to find out what firm designed the Trailcat/Hellcat logo? It is a beauty, simple yet aggressive. Would've made a much better update for Kentucky! vs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CS85 Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 People are ragging on the new wildcat logo but I personally think it's clean, powerful, and badass.

hugevolsfan Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Not sure who did this logo but it looks a little like Davidson's work. Whoever did it I wish the NFL would have let them do the Panthers & Jaguars logos they would be so much better.

KittSmith_95 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Rotate the Kentucky logo 90 degrees and you'll see the easiest issue with it. This car logo's pretty sleek though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CS85 Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Fraser not liking something doesn't instantly make it bad. A lot of Fraser's work, though lauded, I find has become somewhat generic. He has created his own sports design cliche that everyone has followed, and IMHO if this design was more Fraser-esque it would be worse, not better. He makes good points, and yeah it's a flawed logo. I think it looks great. I wouldn't be ashamed to rock it. Quote "You are nothing more than a small cancer on this message board.

Not good. i'm certain it was a sketch as well but its undeniably, objectively better. its well crafted- it's perspective is corrected, the lighting/shading creates clear and true form, and shapes/line work are precise and smooth. it's not worth it to debate which one we "like" best, but Fraser's sketch is absolutely a better crafted logo.

KittSmith_95 Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Fraser's version is good, but not perfect by any means. The nose doesn't look right, and neither do the whiskers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CS85 Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Listen, I respect Fraser as much anyone else who has worked so hard and gotten so much acclaim, but I'm absolutely allowed to like their new logo and not FD's. Obviously I don't do design for an NFL franchise, so who am I to argue, but for somebody as creative as you, I would be a little more open toward agreeing to disagree. I think Fraser's work all kind of looks the same. I've never really been drawn to it. Clearly many other people have. It doesn't mean he's not a great designer - it simply means he failed to reach me. And to me, his version made no instant connection to me like the aforementioned version did. And I don't even like Kentucky. Quote "You are nothing more than a small cancer on this message board.

And I don't even like Kentucky. im not trying to suggest you cant like it, even if its bad. i like design that i know is bad because it dosen't take itself too seriously - like the Minnesota City soccer stuff. but the UK logo is poor because it is amaturish in its construction. not because there is a lack of flair that won't connect to the audience. Fraser pointed out correctly the flaws in the craftsmanship and we as designers must be able to recognize and uphold those standards - pentool paths, perspective, light, form . . . which i think you understand, but have just missed the point i was trying to make. otherwise we will all end up like Ice Cap and not know the difference between a well crafted logo and a poor one, and make a fool of ourselves in a thread commenting on things we know nothing about GRAPHIC ARTIST BEHANCE / MEDIUM / DRIBBBLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
