JJSCOTT Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Just wanted to work on another animal logo so picked one of my favorite critters to start. Not sure where this is goin just something to play with while I am on break from school I guess.Here is the beginning... what you guys think? debating on working with some colors or just sticking with the grey, black and white.

JackFr Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Make the grey on the muzzle look more like a part of it. Also, make the nose less "button-y" My NHL Rebrand BlogCheck it out and comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcrosby Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 This raccoon has some very Buckingham U. Badger-like features. Something deep in your conscience is saying "you are a Badger fan at heart, do an awesome badger concept logo." But since this looks very not badger-like I suppose I can comment on the Raccoonness of it. I like how simple it is, but the eyes seem too simple. https://twitter.com/OutOfThisWC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcrosby Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 without a brow it just looks drowsy. Also, maybe try a snarl on one side of the mouth (not too exaggerated, but something to break up the symmetry). https://twitter.com/OutOfThisWC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spearhead Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Frisco, Texas HS teams are nicknamed the Raccoons (blue and gold) this would be perfect for them.Solid look, if you ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrandMooreArt Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 the up date is looking better, but the 2 problems i have with it is the eyes still (i cant really be much help there, i suck with eyes) and i dont like it being perfectly symmetrical. look at the logo below. the majority was created by doing one side, then copying and reflecting bt there are elements to it that make it asymmetrical and a lot more exciting and life like GRAPHIC ARTIST BEHANCE / MEDIUM / DRIBBBLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1stDownCreative Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 make the eyes and nose and snout bigger...exaggerate the features.also make your logo much smaller and look at it that way. people always make a logo 8" wide with all these small details. and when it is viewed at 2"-3", everything is lost.

gatek99 Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 The first update is the best, looks like real eyes. The 2nd update looks like he is the undertaker and only showing the whites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nash61 Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 I wonder if the colour of the eyes could be what's throwing it off. Perhaps try changing the black pupils to a dark red or something.

bboy_555 Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 I like the 2nd one. I think the first one looks like hes kind of tired. The 2nd is simpler and nicer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandMooreArt Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 also like the 2nd one. those lines flow better with the face and have more of a fur looktheres a few problem areas that bother me for various reasons. heres what would be my solution. not entirely necessary but i think it looks better GRAPHIC ARTIST BEHANCE / MEDIUM / DRIBBBLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
