NeauXone 461 Posted June 3, 2017 So we have no sort of info on what the court for the 'Wolves will look like, considering the summer-long renovation, so I decided to play around with a template and made this. It's a bit rough around the edges, due to my limited know-how on graphic design, but it's just an idea I had. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I could get behind this, I think the wold at the bottom center is a little overkill though. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The court was supposed to be based around the Wolf, so I think I should probably remove the the logos inside the perimeter. This is also why I made the center court logo the North Star. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
itsmb8 637 Posted June 3, 2017 What about sublimating the wolf? Right now you can't see the sideline and center court line of the wolf, so sublimating it could have the wolf there with the lines on top, but not throw off the look of the wolf 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It doesn't fit well. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NeauXone 461 Posted June 4, 2017 Okay, so I've taken all of these suggestions into account, and I have churned out this. It's of higher quality as well. I fixed the baseline issue with the wolf, and even added the Minneapolis skyline. I put in Instagram and Twitter logos next to the username (which I made white instead of green), removed the slogan, and removed the wolves inside the perimeter. Oh, and I also changed the Target Center logo and finally, made the midcourt logo smaller. Here you go. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Germanshepherd 1,077 Posted June 4, 2017 I'd definitely remove the skyline. It makes it too cluttered. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You're right, taking a second look at it, it does look pretty cramped over there. At this point, I could either: Remove the Target Center logos, which I don't want to do, or Make a secondary logo out of the skyline and remove it. I do want to keep the wolf at the bottom. That's for sure. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NeauXone 461 Posted June 4, 2017 Well, I found a nice in-between. I did something probably no team has done before, but I placed the arena logos inside of the perimeter, where the secondary usually goes. This allows me to keep the skyline and have the arena logos. Thanks for all of the constructive criticism, it's really helping. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
itsmb8 637 Posted June 4, 2017 Id keep the wolf the same size but make the skyline stretch across the length of the court and sublimate both to make it look like a "stained wood" color. With that I think the court would be top notch. And, do you mind if I ask what template youre using? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NeauXone 461 Posted June 4, 2017 Well, here's where I let you all decide the final product. I made two courts, with different baselines. You decide which one you like better, but for now... 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_DietDrPepper_ 4,371 Posted June 4, 2017 Something seems off to me about the center court logo, maybe recoloring it or changing it could help imo. But so far you've made big improvements 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_DietDrPepper_ 4,371 Posted June 5, 2017 My biggest problem with the logo, Is mainly the color, I always saw the grey they used to be an accent color, rarely seen anywhere in the identity of the team, maybe changing it to navy. But that's just a small nitpick. Looks great now, just curious about what it'd look like not grey Ig. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WSU151 10,064 Posted June 5, 2017 Similarly, I don't think there's a gray basketball logo anywhere in the new logo set. Use the regular blue (not navy) for the ball. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NeauXone 461 Posted June 5, 2017 I see where you're coming from now. I actually started this as a logoset tweak for the Wolves, meaning that I had changed up some of the colors. For example: 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
