JQK Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 Current"Seattle-Style" ConceptMy brother played for this team in the early 90's, and i will be trying out for them next year. Just felt like the logo (which is a seattle rip-off) could use a little remodeling (which is also a seattle rip-off)P.S. Can you tell i'm in love with that Anaheim font???

Mings Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 it might be a lil rip-off but its also different enough. this is very good, and the angels font works well with it. i like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ez Street Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 Looks good man, i like it. Since it's Semi-Pro, who cares if it's a ripoff. I like the job you did in making it look different. The Angels font is cool i will add. @DavidStreeter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapshot Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 Nice update. I read it as a Seahawk more than an Eagle though. I think biologically there's some physical difference, but it would just be tweaking what you haver a little bit. I'd thicken up some of the lines for consistency (around the eye the lines thin out a bit). I like the use of the Angels font, but give Scranton a little more emphasis. I referee in a semi-pro league in New England, and most of the teams are known by their cities, not their nicknames.Semi-Pro leagues like this want to have as many fans as possible, so emphasizing the city name more, it makes it easier for the fans to know where the teams play (who you play for? Eagles who? oh, Scranton!) ok, bad analogylet me guess, at 6-8 400lbs, you're going out for wideout, right?

Cuss16 Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 very nice work, love the wordmark. One thing I dont like is the blue outline outside of the heavy white around the eagle. Maybe make the blue the thinker one and white into a trim of some sort. Just my 2-cent. Doh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They has some teams that were Town oriented (Watertown Red & Black, Greenfalls Greenjackets), and others that were equally Town and Nickname oriented.

Survival79 Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 I love the Seahawks logo and you did a nice job of paying homage to it.Do you have a helmet concept in mind (shell and facemask colors and/or striping)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their helmet is white, and the logo wraps around just like the seahawks, so i'll have to modify this logo to do that, but that is their design, so why change it?

MJWalker45 Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 It looks nice. It's obvious it is borrowed, but it's different enough to stand apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewharrington Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 thats really cool, and will surely make an awesome helmet, no matter if its red, white, or blue, or whatever. im questioning the white around the eye, though. it makes it look like it has a really big eye.

The white part around his eye is not part of the eye. The eye starts with the blue, then the gray, then the blue pupil.

yh Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 I very much like the updated "Seattle Inspired" (sounds so much nicer than "ripoff") bird. My only recommendation is to get rid of the upturn at the corner of its mouth. An eagle should be stoic and resolute - totally unemotional. This is a good adaptation.
