rtrich11 Posted December 10, 2007 Author Share Posted December 10, 2007 Ok, since I have pretty much NO time for concepts these days and that means I didn't have a chance to come at this from an altogether different angle. However I did try two variations on the logo I did a while back. The top one is keeping with the idea of the original red buffalo, only updating it and detailing it. The bottom is kinda like taking the current logo a step back in time. I am not really done with these. They need some work on the details, but I thought I'd get some input. cafepress.com/artbyrichards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kewp80 Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Reminds me so much of Bucknell, but this is great! The bottom logo is awesome! Something new, but also keeps some tradition in there. Very, very, very nice work! Cardinals -- Rams -- Blues -- Tigers -- Liverpool Check out my music! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideRight Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Of the three buffaloes, I like the original best, but I would suggest you use Navy for the body, royal for the highlight (less hairy part) and perhaps red as eyes and on tips of horn, or as an outline color. I really think a 2 blue + red combo could be great, and if it is Navy/Royal it is different enough from Tennessee to be distinctive. Another suggestion: What if the helmet stripe were five stripes: two thin navy stripes on outside, and three same-width thicker stripes inside royal-red-royal. I think that would be simpler than the current, and would combine the three together well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jer15 Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 I love that second new one, maybe because it looks like something similar to the sabres logo, but much better.

rtrich11 Posted December 11, 2007 Author Share Posted December 11, 2007 Thanks. My wife liked the 2nd one, too, but I'm not ready to give up on the top one. Just wanna see where it goes. cafepress.com/artbyrichards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEWJ Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I like the first version, of these two, best...I'm sure you're working on eliminating the sliver and navy, and stickin to original colors...but I think it would work a lot better if the highlight/fur of the buffalo was royal and the rest of it was navy. Then the outline could be red. I think that would look great. Why don't ya try that and see how it turns out. | BROWNS | BUCKEYES | CAVALIERS | INDIANS | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtrich11 Posted December 11, 2007 Author Share Posted December 11, 2007 The red outline has been proposed a couple times already. I did try it...and unfortunately what happens is that since red and blue are both pretty dark, the buffalo's shape gets lost. Turns into a blob, kinda. I actually do like the idea of using a lighter blue, but just having red on the eye isn't enough. Ay, it tortures me soul. cafepress.com/artbyrichards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winghaz Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 The stance of the Buffalo looks a bit like the one for the North Dakota State Bison (note: Bison, not Bisons), but I think it works.NDSU Bison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
