winters in buffalo Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 It's good, but a little too busy. You might want to cut down the motion lines, and get rid of a few of the outlines on the helmet logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 this is real good, but you probably know that already. I'd say that the only thing wrong with it is the Nebraska is hard to read especially the B and R. Try making that type bigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PackerBadger Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 I like the colors and the primary. Not sure what the uniform/helmet logo would look like on those, however. I believe the high school in Richland, Wash., near a nuclear reservation, calls its team the Bombers, and they have a mushroom cloud logo. You might consider a variation on that -- the logo is the bomb, and the uniform/helmet logo is the result.Also: Since it's the Bombers, are they going to just heave the ball down the field? (Can Daryle Lamonica still play?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCScout76 Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 Love the colors - your secondary logo, I really like. (Of course, I'm a WWII buff) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appleclock Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 Lookin fine, but the script is hard to read... needs a bigger contrast maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurnTwo Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 I love it. Especially the shading in the secondary, really gives it a "steely" look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyandlux Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 Id rather see a plane as the primary and the bomb as the secondary, but thats just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordie_delini Posted August 11, 2005 Author Share Posted August 11, 2005 you asked for a plane - i give you a plane, first by itself, then with the wordmark, then a new tertiary mark - on the tertiary mark, i had a little trouble executing the map design, so i would appreciate some feedback on that. i would also like some help executing the plane and the wordmark together - its almost there, but not quite. anyway, enjoy!BOMBERPrimary Mark v.1Primary Mark v.2Tertiary Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krona Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 Looks great. i like the colors a lot, but do agree that the lettering needs to stand out. my first thought was lose the arch andmake the background the wingspan on the bomber, with some circle/stars thrown on the ends? its really a stretch though. it really looks too good to harp on. on a side note, i was goona use those colors for a fantasy team in eugene, which makes us quasi-neighbors. yeah, oregon!

rmered Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 Looks amazing gordie_d, but I have one question, what's the line from the tail to the left wing? It seems to go under the tail wings, yet connects to the top of the tail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordie_delini Posted August 12, 2005 Author Share Posted August 12, 2005 Looks amazing gordie_d, but I have one question, what's the line from the tail to the left wing? It seems to go under the tail wings, yet connects to the top of the tail. that line is actually a support cable that goes from the tip of the tail to the gun turret on top of the canopy - if you look at some pictures of B-17s, you'll see that. i suppose it could be better with a shadow on the right vertical stabilizer (the smaller wing by the tail), but i figured it would come across, because it cuts across the highlight on that stabilizer. suggestions for the wordmark?

nebraska_nfl Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 Gordi,It's looking great! I really like the plane in the primary logo and then having the bomb for the helmet logo. Can;t wait to see more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think like Sterling commented about Moose horns, sometimes there's stuff there you don't need to see.When I think of a Bomber, it looks like that, but without the cable.In regard to the wordmark, it's very dark.Like dark green on dark green.I'd also like to see it with the wordmark and the plane seperated.Like the plane underneath the wordmark or something.It just seems like there's a lot in a little space, with the letters and their outlines, and the plane and its outline.PS The map of Nebraska on the plane is a great touch.

KCScout76 Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 Suggestion: Lose the wire from the front of the plane to the tail - it distracts from the whole logo and makes it look cluttered.Being a fan of B-17 (which is the plane you modeled the logo after) the wire is not necessary for the logo. The entire thing will look cleaner w/o it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordie_delini Posted August 12, 2005 Author Share Posted August 12, 2005 ok here are two new images - the bomber without the wire and a new wordmark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmered Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 The Bomber looks much better to me.The wordmark is less cluttered just from removing that one cable.And the lighter text is a big improvement.This looks really nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
