burgundy Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 For my latest concept I decided to redesign the Preds, as I feel that for their entire existence their look has been gaudy. Their logo looks like it had promise, up until it was beaten with an ugly stick. And their uniforms? Meh, they could be worse, but they're still pretty ugly.So the first thing I did was get rid of the cybercat, and gave them a sabrecat. I put the head inside of a crest, which is in the shape of a guitar pick in reference to Nashville's nickname of the Music City, and Nashville based Gibson Guitars. For the uniforms I went with a striping pattern that plays off of the stripes of the cat, and the sabre tooth. C&C appreciated.

logodawg Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 It's for sure an upgrade from what they have now, but the cat head seems squeezed within the crest. Try looking at the head without a crest shape and see if it still looks that way. I once had a car but I crashed it. I once had a guitar but I smashed it. I once, wait where am I going with this?

josh_cat_eyes Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I love the jerseys. The pants fit really good too. The first logo is my favorite though. This new one looks like it is looking at me out of the corner of it's eye. It looks very European to me, don't know if thats good or bad though.

chestnutz Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 It's better with the crest. The problem is, like the first poster said, it's squeezed in. Try making the predator come out of the crest just a bit on the right side, so it's kind of "coming out" of the crest, it'd look worlds better. erikas | go birds | dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rentz Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Wow, the newest logo update looks fantastic... it really makes it much more dynamic than being "squeezed" within the crest. My only suggestion for the logo now is to lose the light blue shadow around the mouth and below the whiskers as it's just a bit busy and looks forced.

undead Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 The newest update is the best. Like Nole says, you don't need the shadow around the mouth and whiskers. The shadows under the chin are really cool though. You used a really nice collection of shapes to create your logo. Each part is interesting to pay attention to.Great job on this.

burgundy Posted July 30, 2009 Author Share Posted July 30, 2009 Thanks everybody.Here is the logo without mouth and whisker shadows. I think it sort of loses depth and continuity without them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undead Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 It's certainly better without the whisker shadows. It still has continuity with the teeth shadows. It'll look better from the nosebleeds this way.Great job. Portfoliobobschultz6' class="bbc_url">@bobschultz6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

habsfan1 Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 It's a great concept without a doubt. Although I would have preferred a stand alone crest, the circle does make it's inner details pop out better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Limerick Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 I really like the logo. This is the logo Nashville should be using. Good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkychewbarky Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 The uniforms are awesome. The slash-style stripes really suit the predator theme. On the logo, I might try shortening the nose a bit, by moving the eye and eyebrow forward. *The Battle of Seattle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burgundy Posted July 31, 2009 Author Share Posted July 31, 2009 Thanks again guys.On the logo, I might try shortening the nose a bit, by moving the eye and eyebrow forward.How's this?It does seem to help it look more aggressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undead Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 There was somthing I couldn't put my finger on but that did the trick. It does look more aggressive now. Portfoliobobschultz6' class="bbc_url">@bobschultz6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarperK Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 im liking the progression...One thing though. In my opinion, that shape for the bg looks to lacrossey. Maybe tinker with some new ones? Simply removing the rounded edges in favor of pointed ones would prolly help it look more aggressive as well. ʎɐqǝ uo pɹɐoqʎǝʞ ɐ ʎnq ı ǝɯıʇ ʇsɐן ǝɥʇ sı sıɥʇ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
