Chief. Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Every once in a while, I get a break from being an English major to revisit graphic design. I may turn this into a series of classic logos updated, but I wanted to see what you guys think. You ARE the experts. This is an update of the Kansas University Jayhawks' 1912 logo. He's my favorite. He's just so precious: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knnhrvy16 Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Very nice update!! I love the current Jayhawk (one of my favorite caps that I own features it), but this one, as you've updated it, would be a great primary too I think! Very nice work! And I'd totally follow a series like this if you took it up. I love updated classic logos, I think they retain great tradition while keeping with the times. Again, great work! The opinions I express are mine, and mine only. If I am to express them, it is not to say you or anyone else is wrong, and certainly not to say that I am right.

AdAstraKC Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 great work! Had you thought about making the angry Jayhawk? That one is my favorite. I think it would be cool to see the school utilize an updated version of some of the old logos. You did an awesome job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ted Cunningham Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Check the bird's left leg. It's shaped a little weird. Otherwise, an excellent update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ez Street Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Awesome update, I love it. I too would love to see all the "classic" Jayhawks "updated".You captured the look of the old logo, but but the modern spin on it. Well done!Fort Hays State? Good for you, but I'm a Washburn man. Go Bods! @DavidStreeter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESTONES6 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Nice job. Its clean and you stayed true to the original... very crucial. I would love to see that on a baseball hat. Would be sick.
