It looks cool, but those whiskers/stripes on the face kind of make it look like a tiger more than a lion. The snout may be a bit too pointy also - I always think of lions as having really blnt faces.

Definite improvement though. Just needs tweaking in my opinion.

I think adding a mane to your lion will definitely make it more clearly a lion (although the currently logo strangely seems to have a female lion on it).

I think you're off to a good start, SyPhi. It's not easy trying to fix a logo that's so fundamentally crummy, but you seem up to the task.

i do believe the "lion" that BC is referring to, is a mountain lion... also known as a puma or a cougar.

Ah, I stand corrected.

Mountain lion-cougar--what's the difference?

I am amused by how it always needs to be explained--Mounatin lion--not lioness...

Not a bad idea Sy--but a bit tiger-like, I agree...

My suggestion would be to change the "BC" more if you're tweaking theirs, or lose it altogether, or incorporate it differently.

As for tradition?

The Lions have used a few different logos--including a previous version of this one where the lion is black.

Check out The CFL section of the Helmet project

or

the CFL section here

for reference.

I prefer the paw logo myself...

But good first draft Sy...

a mountain lion and a cougar are essentially the same. there is no difference, just another moniker for the same animal. as for the update, i like it syphi, and there are little tunes to make, but youve done well. the biggest fix here? definitely the white chops and chin. that is a big tiger characteristic.

i know the lion has it too, but its much less dominant. basically, im not convinced its enough to warrant a separate color on the logo. i think the head should be one color.

It's a nice start, but way too jagged and pointy, IMO. Smooth it out a bit (or a lot) & it'll be eons better.

Another thing that could be better is to have the whiskers start closer to the nose, rather than so far behind it.

Good start, I am not a fan of the white around the mouth -- it's really distracting, and takes away from the overall image. My eye keeps going there, and I don't think you want that as the focal point of the logo.
