BuddyLane Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 Okay, I used the UNLV Rebel logo and the Patriotic hat from another logo. I was trying to find an Uncle Sam logo and couldn't. For some reason, this idea came to mind. I know I'm going to get hammered for putting this together, I am not taking credit for any art work. I just want to see what you guys might think of a logo like this being used. By the way, I SUCK AT DRAWING PEOPLE. I confess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shumway Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 It looks pretty good, actually. But doesn't Uncle Sam only have kinda like a Abe Lincoln beard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddyLane Posted December 16, 2005 Author Share Posted December 16, 2005 Yeah. I think so. I was just playing around with existing logos when I put this together. I just wish I could draw people the way I want them to look. Animals are not too much trouble. People are hard for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMU Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 The one problem I have with it is that the pointy beard looks out of place with the long mustache. Maybe consider trying to make the beard shorter and wider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats on being a post whore. Come on, joshuamings, that's not necessary. If some one likes what I put together, I would like to hear it. If some one doesn't, I want to know why, what they think is wrong with it.The one problem I have with it is that the pointy beard looks out of place with the long mustache. Maybe consider trying to make the beard shorter and wider. lmupepbander, Yeah. I will try to tweak it in paint. That's what I am using unfortunately.Thank you.

dgnmrwrw Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 I agree with the long beard comment. But other than that, it works pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordie_delini Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 nothing wrong with working in paint, Buddy - just keep at it until you get some better hardware and software - practice in paint - if you can build your skills there or in a similar program, then when you convert to vector graphics you'll be able to shoot for the moon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddyLane Posted December 16, 2005 Author Share Posted December 16, 2005 Thanks Gordie.Here is the reworked concept. I did it on lunch so I had to rush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordie_delini Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 another piece of unsolicited advice - don't rush concepts when people give you comments- take some time to put a real effort into what people suggest. The more slick and quick stuff you do, the more the quality suffers. Don't be in a hurry to post something to get more feedback quickly. Give it some time for people to respond, and give it some time to develop the look a bit more. Honestly, the more time you take on a design, the better it looks, and the more feedback you will receive. The general trend here on the boards is that the better a design/designer is, the more feedback, comments, and constructive criticism he/she will get.guess the point is, don't rush it - design takes time, there's no need to hurry.

BuddyLane Posted December 16, 2005 Author Share Posted December 16, 2005 Yeah, thanks Gordie. I wasn't planning on spending too much time on that one any way. I might try to get back to it later. I am going to work on a rams logo and bulls logo over the next few days. I will post them when I get them done. Don't worry. I will be taking a lot of time on these two.Thanks for the advice though.

BB61 Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 Congrats on being a post whore. I was one originally when I first started on here. But ever since midway through my first month, I have not been one since. You have only been here for 2 months and you already have 500+ posts. No, you are a post whore. I could also add that he's just a plain frickin' pain-in-the-tuchus, but I'm not going to hijack Buddy's thread anymore than it has been.Buddy, that's a nice concept considering it was done on paint. I like that it's unique, almost a stylized version of Uncle Sam. The Hat looks a little weird, but I think that might just be a POV (point of view for those of you scoring at home)rendering.The only thing I could suggest is expanding the beard laterally on the chin. But a good effort either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingssss Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 This isn't bad, buddy. I think that the beard looks weird because it looks like the guy is facing the left, and the beard is going to the right. That needs a bit of work, but once that's done, I think this is pretty good. Good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddyLane Posted December 16, 2005 Author Share Posted December 16, 2005 Cool. Thanks BigBrain61, I appreciate it. Maybe I'll really WOW everyone when I put something on here that I did from scratch. Maybe not. We'll see next week.Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
