TruColor Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 I just received an email with some pics attached from the "Winter Blast" during the Super Bowl in Detroit. Besides the fact that they used the old Seahawks logo (what a surprise), they also used a Cardinals logo that looks a bit familiar.Here are some of the pics taken from this Winter Blast:And then, there is THIS!!!!!!:Remember this logo? It's Greg Malek's concept from my Arizona Cardinals Concepts on the SSUR:Unbelievable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CC97 Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 They carved his concept into ice?! Wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boardname Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 It's wrong, yet, WOW so cool. Seriously. I'm sure he'll be mad when he sees that he got ripped off.. but there's got to be at least a small part of him that says "okay, that's freaking cool."

KJTALBOT Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 Yeah, I took the photos and sent them to Pantone.I think I would actually be honored to see my creation in ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KCScout76 Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 Great Carving - Greg needs to be compensated.The Raven lawsuit all over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 Thats not cool, that man is probally getting paid to use someone else idea, and probally didnt even ask Greg if he could use that unless, he did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSU151 Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 It's funny that the sculptor used 99& of Greg's concept, but he changed the beak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meetthemets Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 Maybe the guy saw the concept logo somewhere and thought it was the actual logo for the Arizona Cardinals. He already used the old Seahwaks logo thinking it was current. Maybe the guy doing the carving doesn't know too muck about sports logos. Why would he use NFL logos and then use a Cardinals logo that isn't real unless he thought it was the actual mark? Doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Looks to me like it could yhave been an honest mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KJTALBOT Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 Whoever did the carvings used "artistic license".The Jaguars sculpture used the crawling full body jaguar.The bears was a helmet with the bear in the middle of the C.I'm guessing the person carving the logos just picked logos he thought were cool.

Joshawaggie Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 i guess this is kudos to Greg.I honestly thought when I opened this thread it was gonna be nitro's logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winters in buffalo Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 Well, when I saw the topic I knew it was going to be a Cards logo. Just didn't know which one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks to me like it could yhave been an honest mistake. It might not have been the same people doing the carving. Still, there needs to be some compensation here. Really though, if I had designed that logo, I would be honored to have it in ice. Then i'd sue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninersdd Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Where did they do that Cardinals logo at?(There's no icy conditions in Phoenix)Maybe they did it in Flagstaff where it snows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawk36 Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Amazing. With the NFL so tight about uniform socks, alt unis, etc., strange that they would be so removed from artwork showing at their premiere event of the year. Here's to hoping that the the original artist can be compensated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
