TruColor Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 This reminds me of a designer's work who used to be on these boards - I'm not going to name him - but someone who was a terrific illustrator who had no clue how to design a sports logo.WAY too much detail, gradients, bad color choices, etc.How would you embroider that mess?Huh? Huh? How would ja? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your the guy who designedthis and your here with us, I would slap you naked and hide your clothes.That is just a really bad logo !!!

Sodboy13 Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 How would you embroider that mess?Huh? Huh? How would ja?Well, fortunately for the Icehawks, the new Fake IHL is definitely a screenprinting-caliber kind of league.

js ° Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 hey guys ... so I had this idea that crept into my head, and fought its away out between projects. let me know what you guys think of this for a Port Huron Ice Hawks identity : ◬☰ ⏣ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 John, that's far too good for this league.I'd suggest contacting the organization, but I'd imagine you'd like to be paid for your services, so don't bother.

wildwing64 Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 What a piece of crap (not js °'s concept, that rules). Being a member of a minor league should not give teams an excuse to use a crappy logo like that. That fact that they've used the Impact font, and made it shiny, just makes it look worse.Is it just me, or can anyone else see the word 'KINNEY' formed by the feathers/icicles underneath the Icehawks name?

Brian in Boston Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 let me know what you guys think of this for a Port Huron Ice Hawks identity :I've been a huge fan of your past work, John. That said, I'm not feeling the marks that you've come up with here. In trying to render the bird's flapping wings as if they are sweeping up and back just prior to being brought back down, while also clinging to the use of sharp, angular shapes that call to mind ice, you've ended up creating an Ice Hawk that simply looks... awkward. The rather abrupt right-angle at which the ends of the wings turn upward makes it look as if both of the Ice Hawk's wings have been broken. Either that or the Ice Hawks team using your primary mark should be competing in a football league. Touchdown! LOLAs for the secondary mark, I'm a fan of it's simplicity. However, on the right-hand upright of the "H", I'd like to see the upper portion tucked behind the loop of the "P", with the lower portion overlapping the loop. In that way, I'm hoping that the intersection of the "H" upright and "P" loop wouldn't have me seeing an "F" hidden in the logo (which I'm reading now).All of this said, your logos represent a 100% improvement over the horrible mark that the Ice Hawks actually unveiled. I find it absolutely mind-boggling that an idea that "crept" into your head and "fought its way out between" other projects should be so professional. Oh, and I love the color palette you chose.

CMUBrent Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 From this angle, it looks like the IceHawk/Parrot/Rodan's Peculiar Cousin needs serious orthodontic work. The concepts posted in this thread are much better. Wouldn't mind seeing some more color besides several shades of blue though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
