Possible NCFA Rebrand

[walkerws]

I was sitting here in the desert and threw down some ideas on paper for my NCFA team. They'd be the Dennison State Railroaders, an homage to my hometwon's old high school name and heritage. C & C appreciated. I added the brakeman there. He'd be like the OSU Cowboy that they have used for prode stickers in the past.

Nothing? I guess I need to go refine it some more then?

Oh man I really, really like #1 here.

[undead]

#1 really has a lot of potential. I'd say thicken the line weights of the front orange section so it's similar to the weight of the wheels. Simplify the smoke stack area and then let's see where we are. I'd like to see an update since this is really cool.

My first thought was 1, but then I thought it was a bit too generic/simple and 4 caught my eye, I like the lightning bolt accents. Just really don't like the colors.

First thing i'd say is that you need to watch your perspectives. You've got about two or three different ones going on within a single logo and it's making everything look twisted and out of alignment. Secondly I'm no steam train expert but I always thought that the smoke stack was at the very front of the engine and not half way back as you have it depicted. So maybe a little more research is required.

You've got some good things happening in a few of them but sadly they are all being undone by misalignments, fix those and you could be onto something.

#1 is the best out of the group.

[walkerws]

Yeah. I suck at perspective especially since I don'at think you'd get a good look at he total package.

I changed the color and fixed the cow catcher on #1 (#2 here) and with #2 I refined the smoke stack and bolts. I changed the cow catcher in # 2 to give it more downturn like it'd be on the tracks. My angles off but paint isn't the easiest thing to work oiut of some times. I have to go into either irfanview or powerpoint and turn it down a little in the front.

How did hte color change work? Still off? I wanted to avoid a grayscale thing and as it is there are like four shades of gray and then black.

First time seeing this, but Orange and black are your best bet. I'd say orange and black on the grey and blue one in the update, with the cloud from the gold one. That'd might be good.
