OhioSportsMan61 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Hey all, this is a little something that I've been working on recently. This idea was originally intended to be submitted to HJC's pairs competition, but @McElroy19 and I couldn't fully put together our ideas and submit before the deadline (but thanks for helping out and giving me feedback throughout the entire design process Matt!). and here is what the main mark looks like on a white background (and in BW). I'm definitely open to all C&C, as this is by no means a "finished" project. I am just a bit stuck on what I could possibly change/add/etc. to make this a stronger mark - if anything even needs to be edited at all. Any thoughts? Oh, and uniforms are on their way too My Behance Portfolio --- Follow @Steinosaur19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldconcepts Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Really nice! Everything about this screams "Vegas", and "great logo design"! I don't know if it's the colour scheme, lettering, neon details, or any of the little Easter eggs, but I am in love with this design. At first glance, I would've suggested changing the "ALL STAR" font to that of Vegas' wordmark, but the more I look at it, the more I like what you have here. Looking forward to seeing uniforms! EDIT: Actually this dark colour scheme that Foley stuck you with might blend together on smaller, darker applications, but I'm not sure how I'd fix that.

Any other feedback on what could be changed? I'm not too sure... It looked nice on a desktop screen, then a little more muddled on mobile... I really do like the colour scheme you have here, but for that reason it may not work. Maybe lighten up the red and the gold to a yellow? It's probably fine how it is, but you never know... Really just nitpicking here; this would've blown away the Pairs Comp, but for the wordmark, the extended spacing for "Fabulous Las Vegas" to match the rest of the mark doesn't look as nice as it does on the logo itself. What would it look like with the spacing unchanged? Twitter: @ldconcepts / Instagram: @ld.concepts / Website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will post an updated word mark when I get the chance, but here are a few different color options I lightened up the red that was used, and eliminated the gray in one. Eliminated gold altogether, and lightened up the red. Thoughts? My Behance Portfolio --- Follow @Steinosaur19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraigJPritch Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 I think that option 4 is the most "Vegas" and I think it pops the best of the color options you have. Great work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldconcepts Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Yeah, I prefer the original colour scheme. It says "Vegas" the most to me (no matter how weird that sounds). Twitter: @ldconcepts / Instagram: @ld.concepts / Website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhioSportsMan61 Posted March 15, 2017 Author Share Posted March 15, 2017 I'm gonna have to agree with you @ldconcepts. I just took a look at this thread on my phone, and there's definitely a significant difference between the dark/light red. I think option A is the best color combination...the yellow is too much haha My Behance Portfolio --- Follow @Steinosaur19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkychewbarky Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 The logo looks great Ohio...You've got the sign...the circle letters...and some neon...nicely done. Unfortunately you've got the drab official colours to try to work with. I liked your original colouring, but maybe with a lighter, brighter gold, a silver rather than the gray, and a more orange-y red. Again, the logo's great! *The Battle of Seattle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's an update based off your suggestions. I lightened up the gold and red in both, and changed the gray to silver in one. I'm trying to envision what this would look like as a center-ice logo, and what would look better. Thoughts?

GriffinM6 Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Light grey looks really good. It allows for everything to pop without straying too far from Vegas' color scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only issue with it is that it pops so much that it takes away attention from "ALL STAR". I think I may have a solution... First version is unchanged, second version I flipped the silver and gold. Thoughts? I think I may still prefer the first option My Behance Portfolio --- Follow @Steinosaur19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H11K Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 I personally thought that the bright gold and red worked the best, that said, this looks like it is the real deal, perfect execution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTConcepts Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 The newest 2nd one is my favorite of the bunch. I think the colors really pop. And the design itself is really good. Well done!

NoE38_Concepts Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 These logos are unreal. Definitely would have won the pairs comp. IMO the first version still looks best. Great Work as always! @noe38concepts (Instagram - Twitter) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully I will get a chance to post uniforms later on today. Side note - if anyone would like to share a center ice template I could use for this project, it would be greatly appreciated!

I don't see the point in overdoing the neon when the team's identity is so bland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
