DustDevil61 Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Here's my first concept that I just finished, post-computer-cleaning and flash-drive-losing. The team name is the Utah Rockies, a recycled NHL name and also a proposed name for a 1976 ABA team that would have been the merged Spirits of St. Louis/Utah Stars. The colors seem a bit Islanderish, but I tried to sneek in some light blue for some differentiation. Anyways, I hope you like.Utah Rockies Concept AKA @LanRovr0 on Twitter LED Sig Credits to packerfan21396 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oo_nrb Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Love those orange alts with the mountains. The other two don't really do much for me. I think you're on the right track with the logo, but it's not quite there yet - is it supposed to be a mountain coming out of an orange rock? And the secondary is a bit uninspired...what if you straightened out the U and used the negative space to make a shape of Utah? Just some thoughts, I think it's an excellent start. 2011 Colorado Rockies | Season from Hell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just some thoughts, I think it's an excellent start.Ah, it's my Paint skills (more like the lack thereof) showing thorugh. But here's what the logo is supposed to mean: The Mountains aren't supposed to be coming up out of an orange rock--it's more of a scenery/location thing. Noticing that the mountains are above the orange rocks, it's kind of symbolic of Utah: Up north, mountains are everywhere, like the Wasatch Front, and below it (south) are mesas, found around places like St. George, Moab, and the like. I was kind of inspired by the Utah Jazz logo, with the mountains. Being from southern Utah, I liked the copper in the Jazz's 97-04 uniforms because I felt that it represented southern Utah, and that led be to bring in the "orange rock."This is a work in progress, and I'm trying the straightened U with a negative space for Utah for a logo, and am making tweaks in the mountain/mesa logo to hopefully spice it up some more.By the way, what is meant by making the Utah outline more realistic? Hmm...that also gives me another idea... AKA @LanRovr0 on Twitter LED Sig Credits to packerfan21396 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetsfan98 Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 its awesome but that "U" is boring Don't you want the JOJ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DustDevil61 Posted May 25, 2009 Author Share Posted May 25, 2009 --Bump--While I haven't finished (or really started) the uniforms, I did manage to make a second pair of "U" logos: One that's somewhat more western-looking with the state outline in the negative space, and one that's based off of Delicate Arch (which is often found on the license plates):Let me know what you think!
