jshmiami96 Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Hey guys. Need some feedback on this logo set I've thrown together for our intramural sports "franchise" (i.e. same group of guys who play a ton of the sports together). Our team name is the "106 Pharaohs" with 106 being the number of our townhouse and some friends' apartments on the team. I'm a relatively recent convert from Inkscape to Illustrator but I think I've ironed out most of the kinks. This logo was arrived at after a long series of trial and error, with the guys on my team having a very specific idea in mind of what they wanted. It was clear they wanted a side-profile logo, and the nature of a pharaoh's headdress made that difficult. I will post also our logo evolution so you have a reference point. Thanks so much for your help!

fkaKrock5cent Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 I like the general direction of what you have here. I think the tie in using the pharaoh as the 0 is a nice touch. I think your biggest issue is the detail on the pharaoh. In particular, the eye area is a bit big. The headdress itself is a bit plain, take a look online and you'll see some cool designs, the most popular being King Tut's striped pattern. You can really experiment there. Maybe your townhouse has a distinctive feature that you can work into the pattern or the headdress. Just an idea. Also, I'm not sure what your process is when you design a logo, but if you aren't already, I would highly recommend working with just one color first and then move from there. That might help you simplify things while also focusing on making the design more engaging. This is a solid start and I hope we get to see the final product on a t-shirt or whatever jersey type you guys might go with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate your feedback and yes, I will loop my progress through this feed. I would appreciate any other feedback.

~Bear Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 It's definantly an upgrade, but the eyes are throwing me off. I liked the eyes in the first version better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
