lancebridwell Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 If the secondary were to be a bit more, I guess, symmetrical, it could work. But I'm not too crazy about those bee silhouettes. I think you should somehow incorporate bee stripes with the sunshine background and the land. Just IMO. I don't think, because thinking implies uncertainty. Therefore, I KNOW.

crashcarson15 Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 I echo lancebridwell's statement. Go with a bee stripe background on the secondary and I'd put RGV at the bottom! Great work again cfish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenfish13 Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 Hey guys, thanks for the feedback, I'll work on some stripes.As for Odessa, I'm thinking about a name change. I haven't been able to come up with anything for a jackalope, and I researched it and jackalopes really aren't that involved in Odessa. Any ideas? Or do you object to a name change? dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theflakeband Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I go to school at UTPB, in Odessa, and being from the Houston area, i can tell you there are a lot of racists,lol, so there is one and our soccer team gets in fights, so you can come up with names for that. Drillers, Oilers, and so on for people who work in the oil fields. Why don't you call them Permian Drillers, that way you bring in Midland fans and you represent the whole region. Plus, nobody even goes to the games anymore, you should just pack up and leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenfish13 Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 Haha, maybe a relocation could be a possibility. I thought about drillers or whatever, but there's the Tulsa Oilers, so, I can't change that. Any relocation ideas? dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaha32 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I think a hockey stick in the killer bees' hands would look nice. I know some people dont like to always have elements from the sport in the logo but at least that way he is doing something other than just bending over. Also, at first glance I thought that he had just bitten on something (like a worm) and it was dangling out of his mouth but then later realized it was his left (our right) arm. maybe try moving the arm just a tad so its not coming out right below the teeth. otherwise i like this. oh i just noticed a sliver of blue between his two left wings (where the black outlines almos touch) and that should be taken out to make it more professional.

chickenfish13 Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 The original logo did have a hockey stick, so I guess I could try it with the stick. I'll work on the arm as well, and the blue sliver is just part of some shading, but I can definitely get rid of it. Thanks for the comments. dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theflakeband Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 How about cowboys, or buffaloes, we have tons of statues at the university of them? Odessa Buffaloes, Odessa Cowboys, or even Odessa Ranchhands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenfish13 Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 I really like Ranchhands, perfect for a minor league team, and I've never heard it used in sport before. Thanks theflakeband. dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theflakeband Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I really like Ranchhands, perfect for a minor league team, and I've never heard it used in sport before. Thanks theflakeband.No problem. Really looking forward to what they look like, please stay away from orange, i'm getting tired of seeing it in all the teams around here.

chickenfish13 Posted December 13, 2009 Author Share Posted December 13, 2009 OK, sorry to bump this for something besides a concept, but I need some more help: I really wanted to use the Odessa Ranchhands, but I've run into designers block with that, and cant come up with anything. TheFlakeBand mentioned something about Odessa's attendance being poor, and I looked it up and it's pretty much true. So, I need some relocation help. I've been looking at hockey markets, nicknames, all kinds of stuff, but can't come up with anything I like. I had Salt Lake Swarm, but theres the killer bees, so I don't want to use that. I know this is kinda the easy way out, but I want to keep this going with another concept. So, any help? Thanks. dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burmy Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Tuscon Lawmen (obvious "Old West" reference, plus local police arrested John Dillinger and four of his gang members (five of the top six names on the FBI Most Wanted List) there in late January of 1934-celebrated by Dillinger Days, the highlight of which is a re-enactment) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickenfish13 Posted December 15, 2009 Author Share Posted December 15, 2009 Would something like the Tucson Needles work? I;ve read that there are tons of Saguaro Cacti in Tucson. dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
