GMac Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 I told you i was redoing a logo I made for my floor hockey team... and here it is... Jive Turkeyz is an inside joke... bascically a group of us went to a party as a gang of rappers known as the Jive Turkeyz (I was 2mac, there was also Busta Kracka, DJ Honkey, Funkmasta Sparks, Slim Shiny...lol) and we all played hockey together so it became our team name...with out further ado... I give you the Jive Turkeyz... im still messing with the Illustrator logo is some one can give me tips on colours that would be nice... like how do i add depth with out black... i hope thats not in the TFAQ or I'll look stupid...lol*EDIT*... i guess gif format sucks for teh original but u get the point...

Primal Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 Widen the brim on that pimp hat, and make it purple. THEN you'd be stylin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDunn Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 agreed. Now it just looks like a fedora. Bigger brim, purple hat, make the white stripe on the hat yellow. Leopard print would be preferable, but that's hard to do in a small space. Oh, and instead of a cross for the necklace, how about a giant dollar sign?

Cuss16 Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 I think the new illustrator one is god and neat but i like the old one better. the hand drawn feel makes it feel very retro. just my 2-cents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pagan696 Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 like how do i add depth with out black...use the same color values with increased black. example: your orange beak (c0/m100/y60/k0) to have a blended look shadow add the black to the orange values (now c0/m100/y60/k40). play around with it untill you get the right look. i like to switch the pallette around when doing this to CMYK, then you can keep your design in RGB by going to filters>convert to RGB to see the RGB values. it's easier to understand using the CMYK sliders.

tajmccall Posted October 10, 2003 Share Posted October 10, 2003 Of course the illustrator version is cleaner, and just overall, more appealing, but i think you have way too many colors going on here.What was echoed above, stronger shadows would be an easy remedy, as long as limiting the color scheme. i think i counted 7, not including black and white. Maybe try to work in thicker weights with the strokes, and you have yourself a badass logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
