Kenion Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 Wow! That is one of the best modernizations I've ever seen. You should seriously send that into the school. I wouldnt be the least bit suprised if they used it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJR118 Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 It is a good style update on one of the ugliest logos in college sports. The mouth is still funny on the new and old. Impossible angles. Regardless, it's a big step up.If you revisit this later, I'd love to see you take the basics: "angry man+hat" and completely start anew. I know that's not what your friends were looking for in this instance, but it could be a good challenge for later. You'll have to let us know what people say, if folks take pictures of it, or if the head coach says "I want that". (The last isn't likely to happen, I know.)thats a bit harsh, but its your opinionanyway, as a current deac myself, i like it, but i'll always like the original the best - it's certainly a good representation of a more modern logo, but if i had to choose i'd stick with the original deacon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axl007 Posted January 2, 2007 Author Share Posted January 2, 2007 Thanks everybody. We'll see if we get a look tonight (their seats aren't that good). My logo is edgy because these guys are that type (we went to airborne school together), probably too edgy for the NCAA. I haven't done a logo for quite awhile so it was nice to whip this up for these guys.Axl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mydogisgomez Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Did this mascot used to have a cigarette in a long cigarette holder clenched between his teeth back in the day? I assume it had something to do with RJ Reynolds since it's in the area. Maybe he never had a cigarette, but for some reason I remember it that way.

Ben5 Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 As a currnet Wake student, I really like this. As said before, take the WF off the hat. Otherwise, this is money. I like the flesh color version better, but I would probably like a completely white Deacon face the best.As for the cigarette in the mouth, I don't remember seeing one on old logos, but I could have easily forgotten about it. And actually, RJR paid to move the campus to Winston-Salem from Wake Forest, NC so they would have people to plug into their company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brass Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Love 'em! They have that Zephyr X-Line style logo, but still has the basicness to be a logo that the team should and might even sport. Fantastic work on this! On 4/10/2017 at 3:05 PM, Rollins Man said: what the hell is ccslc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtrich11 Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 axl, did you ever get a response from the Wake Forest fans who saw the shirts? Did your friends get drunk and throw the shirts off? We liked them, so just wondering the scoop. cafepress.com/artbyrichards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
