Sportsworth Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Had this concept completed for a while but never added color to it until now due to other concepts I got into. Here's a Whaler to represent the Hartford Whalers. Please don't compare him to the Islanders Fisherman logo (which I happened to love by the way) Also look for the upside down whale tail in the logo on his hat as a nod to the original logo. What do you all think? Comments and critique wanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grew up rooting for the Whalers and Nordiques lol (don't ask) I was suppose to be a Bruins fan like the rest of my family but I ended up liking both Hartford and Quebec. I wanted to make a actual Whaler instead of a Whale with this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgan33 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I like it, but it really needs some blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going for the original colors of green and white although I prefer the blue green and gray logo myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chcarlson23 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Love the Tail in the Hat! It definetly needs needs some blue as mentioned above, but not to much, kinda like their original NHL jerseys.

ujju2 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Love it! If they were ever to return, I would want them to use the old logo, but on its own, this is fantastic. Wouldn't be much of a concept just posting the old logo lol. Great work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan O'Mac Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I like the whaler aspect of this. I don't like the wordmark. I like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whittier S Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Very clever and well rendered. The two fonts in the wordmark really aren't jibing, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I wanted to post the logo and had the wordmark laying around so I figured I would post it with the whaler. I do however plan on making a new wordmark to go with this.

And yes I agree the wordmark isn't great, I'm going to create a much better one soon and repost it. I will also do some jerseys as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
