elliott Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 I was doodling in history class not too long ago and I came up with a shark curling around a 'G' for a logo, a team to be called the Great Whites. Somehow, I must have been really tired, but I attempted to doodle the same thing and it came out looking more like a seal, around a 'C'. So, I cleaned it up in Illustrator and I came up with something that I thought was halfway decent.Thus, this concept. I love the former CA Golden Seals name, and I love their colors. I thought the addition of gray would make them look more like, well, seals. Oh, and the dark color that looks like black is actually dark gray, but it's just a highlight/outline color.So I don't really have much else to say about it. I really don't have any idea what the response will be like because the logo is kind of cartoonish I guess, but I hope you like it.Logo SheetHome and Away jerseysTwo Alternates Dribbble ...

Vaytch Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 I love the scondary logo, great job !My favorite is the retro alternate, it would go well with the home & away set. Only thing I'm not sure if I like is the main logo, doesn't seem quite right just yet ! CM Punk Jersey - Daniel Bryan Jersey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winghaz Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 That seal looks more like a dragon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spartacat_12 Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 I really like the font and the secondary logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brendan Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Get rid of the c in the seal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gueman Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 If you call them the golden seals, shouldn't the seal in the logo be golden? The logo sheet needs a lot of work. The seal is in need of some cleaning up and the CS thing really needs to be cleaned up as well. BUT you did a very neat and clean job with your presentation so that is a plus, and the jerseys look good. Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys. P.

ericjjyy Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 It looks a little minor league-ish in my opinion, but is a really good secondary, and love the wordmark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
udubs03 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 the whiskers on the primary make it look as if the seal has a 'C' painfully sewn to its chin. There should also be more of a nose. It looks a bit like a dolphin. The secondary has a lot of potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viper Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 The seal looks a little too cartoony for my taste (and as queman said it should be golden), but otherwise these look really sharp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelayedPenalty Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 You, and a few others have already said it, but it's too cartoonish, not an NHL quality logo. Concept overall is a great idea. I love the retro alternate the most, but the home and road sweaters are nice too. Good job overall! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SG30 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Great work. Fantastic secondary. Work on the seal a bit. Take out some of the cartoony-ness and make it gold, as everybody else has said before me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chazberg Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 The Seal looks like it had its arm/flipper cut off. But the unis are solid, just clean up the logos. charles-noerenberg.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heernumurr Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 The seals face looks a little weird, maybe if you rounded it off a little it would work better.Love the jerseys though, very well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korbyn Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Not a fan of the first 3 jersey, but the retro alternate jersey looks pretty sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh_cat_eyes Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 I like it. Agian, as others have said, it looks quite minor league-ish but then agian so is the name. I would love to see it used in the AHL or ECHL or something like that. Similar to how the Pheonix Roadrunners have a former teams name, the California Golden Seals would be perfect. Perhaps an affiliate team for San Jose or Aniehem. Great job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leggman01 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 all the jagged lines make no sense to me...seals are such sleek, agile and graceful animals in the water...this seal doesn't exhibit any of those qualities - the flippers look like they've been chopped off by a boat prop, the body is too slender, the ear being a different color than the body is confusing, the whiskers are mis-placed and the "c" and hockey stick are forced - the pose of the seal is enough to approximate the "c"...no need to wedge one in, if you ask methere are a lot of things you've done right here, but if you want to take this to the next level it needs serious refining - good start, though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elliott Posted March 28, 2008 Author Share Posted March 28, 2008 Ok, I updated the logo. Made it sleeker, changed the eye, and slightly altered the 'C'. Wanted a less cartoonish look Dribbble ... Behance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winghaz Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 That looks a heck of a lot more like a seal than the first one.But I think you need to drop the C. It's kind of redundant since the seal is shaped like a C.You're making progress. It needs more tweaking, but you're getting somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wanna add taht if you make the "alifornia" of "California" gray the seal will fit right in. Don't have the gray seal with like yellow text. Just my opinion.
