72freebie Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 I have been wanting to do a logo for my high school for so long, and I finally got around to it. The school's mascot is the Golden Bears. I don't mind our logo right now, considering it is ctually an original logo(which you don't see a whole lot in high schools). I just wanted to try something new and see if I could improve on it. I want to eventually create secondary logos but for now I just have the primary. I would really love some input on this because I want it to be as good as possible. Here is the logo Here is the current logo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_grateful_ted Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Remove all the thin yellow lines inside the logo, it makes it look more like incompleteness than shading. Definitely an upgrade, look forward to seeing it change and improve! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcrosby Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 It's reading as more of a tiger to me at the moment. Work on adjusting the shape, and try making line weights more uniform. When changing line weight for smaller details it should be a fluid change. https://twitter.com/OutOfThisWC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72freebie Posted August 22, 2016 Author Share Posted August 22, 2016 I think I have improved the shape. You guys be the judge. I am having trouble with shading for logos. If anybody could give me some tips or recommend a tutorial, that would be fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MontyK17 Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 The head shape is a lot better, I think the teeth need to be worked on to make it appear more menacing and intimidating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72freebie Posted August 23, 2016 Author Share Posted August 23, 2016 i asked my friends what they thought of it and they all agreed that it needed to look more menacing. I made the out less of a smiling shape and removed the pupil. Better or worse? I also made a sheet of wordmarks on backgrounds of all of the school colors. I have also done a couple of secondary logos hat have a diagonal VCI ( standing for Virden Collegiate Institue) one is in a shield that resembles the schools coat of arms and the other is the VCI by itself. Let me know what you think on the updates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panthers_2012 Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 The bear needs a pupil. It looks like a zombie bear. The word marks and secondary logo look good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
