TheHydroPole Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 I decided to try and redesign a logo by hand for the first time. Printed out a sheet full of the logo I wanted to trace and redesign, pulled out some parchment paper and started tracing the parts I wanted and modifying by hand the parts I did not want. I then took a picture and traced it all over again in Illustrator and made more changes there. All in all, I actually dig how it turned out. If Let me know what you think! Looking at it now, a change I might make is to make the circles of the crown white and maybe make the beard look less like an "M" although I had the idea of maybe just making this a Manchester Monarchs redesign (Kings ECHL affiliate). Thanks for reading and let me know what you think! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeerGuyJordan Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 I'm not sure how I feel about the kings using it for anything more than an alt, but love the idea ove the monarchs going to this, full-time.

ZionEagle Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 It's definitely a nice logo. I have to say it looks like your first king had been packing in the pounds during the offseason so he could hibernate on the hockey rink The new is worlds better, you're definitely on to something.

JCRGraphix Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 That's fantastic. I'd be interested to see it in some other colors (70s Kings, 00s Kings). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheHydroPole Posted October 18, 2016 Author Share Posted October 18, 2016 On Manchester's current jersey. This is what the final look ended up being. Really wish the Monarchs would go with these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeerGuyJordan Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Looks great, I'd even like to see these on Ontario, full time. Good work!
