sparkychewbarky Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Isn't it funny that the direction that 'True North' wanted the jet to face in the logo...isn't "true north".Anyway I thought I'd try a go at designing a logo that met the apparent criteria of 'True North'.-silver jet-red maple leaf-roundel shapeThe thing went Twilight Zone on me.That's better.

hockey week Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 it faces magnetic north. Honestly, that's not a bad logo...I rather like the leaf imposed on the plane. Try it in the red/white/blue/silver, and maybe point it straight up, and that might be my favorite jets concept on here so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hockey week Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Don't change your original concept, it's great to see a progression based on what criticism does. seriously, I REALLY like that logo. I'm honestly really impressed. Do a vertical version (with the jet pointing straight up) just for comparison's sake, and send the better one to PuckDrawn's competition. Anybody else agree with me on this? The shading is great, the fact that the leaf creates a design on the wing AND kinda puts the cockpit on there, while also providing the detail for the tail really makes this thing pop. I think the cutouts for the speed is a great touch as well. Put that thing on a hat, and I'd wear it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgiff17 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 That is a very nice logo and compared to the actual one seems as though you took more time and consideration into the creation of yours...great logo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuffDawg Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Well, this just ruins the actual Jets logo for me because now I'm going to constantly wish it was this one. This looks so much more inspired... and I actually like it a lot better rotated than if it were pointing straight up. Great job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conrad. Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 yea im liking the dynamism of the right-side logo...well done, sir. much more successful and though-out than the rush job that Winny came out with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worcat Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 i'd send in the vertical version of that logo to the team and tell them they made a HUGE mistake by not using yours. It's very impressive and well executed. one of the better jets logos (logos in general) i've seen on this forum in a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drdougfresh Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 I kinda feel like what True North chose is a little bit like they just stacked clip art on top of clip art and called it a logo. Your 'true north' concept is like taking what their idea was and finishing it-- more refined. Kudos to you, I wish they would listen to designers like us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHcreative Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 This is definitely one of the best Jets logos I've seen. Great work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hockey week Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 There is something cool about the vertical jet, but you were right, the angled one is definitely better. Send that thing to PuckDrawn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missouri tigers Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 I like the shades of grey/ silver you used over the actual logo. Also, I think the version that points to the "true" north is more visually appealing. Not sure why, because I'm ussually a sucker for symmetrical hockey logos.

Crash Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Isn't it funny that the direction that 'True North' wanted the jet to face in the logo...isn't "true north".True north is to the geographic pole, not the magnetic one, so true north would be "up". And even magnetic north, from Winnipeg, is very very nearly true north because of where they lie in relation to the magnetic pole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
