Ragone Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Well I'm back again trying to design logos for my Fantasy League. Soon, once I begin to learn and create better logos I will create an entire thread dealing with this league. But for now, I'm doing single threads. So, this team is looking to be called the Alaska Avalanche. I wanted to do something with regards to the Yeti or Abominable Snowman. I'm going to be adding a body to this, chest showing the top portion of it. I was planning on adding the wordmark under it then. This is my first attempt at creating a logo with regards to animal so please leave your comments on how it can be improved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vicfurth Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 I like it dude. Interesting thought, throw burgundy in the scheme and get a new look for the avalanche. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pianoknight Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 The U shape in the tongue seems unnecessary, but otherwise it's solid. 5th in NAT. TITLES | 2nd in CONF.

Soarindude Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 My favorite Yeti logo I have seen so far... most of them look so poor. This one, perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeauxColonels Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Add me to the list of people who think the tongue looks a bit strange. Other than that, I'm really diggin this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that, I'm really diggin this.Agreed.Well I went ahead an fixed the tongue and made it solid. I also added like a background to it and added a few more highlights, but I'm still working on the text portion. Here is the update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-kj Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Not bad, but your colors need some better contrast; it looks very washed out as is. Buy some t-shirts and stuff at KJ Shop!

Ragone Posted December 27, 2013 Author Share Posted December 27, 2013 I followed Mockba's advice and went ahead by darkening up the color's to make them not look so washed out. Hopefully it looks better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midway Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 The disconnect between the top of the head and the bottom portion really bothers me. You should work into making it look like a head that is one whole piece by working the white fur outside of the eyes and minimizing the amount of black shadow the glare creates. Additionally, it needs some sense of depth with the level of detail you've got going on. For example, the forehead wrinkles are all the same size, which makes the face look a bit flat. If you make them smaller from bottom to top and shorten the brow strokes, it would help to better round out the logo. Aside from that it's a very nice Yeti logo which you don't see much of.

I will try and work on creating a whole face rather than two separate sections. Thanks for the feedback, I will do my best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ragone Posted December 31, 2013 Author Share Posted December 31, 2013 Well here is the updated logo. I made it so the face was not disconnected with the top and bottom portions. Along with this I created more depth within the logo by gradually decreasing the size of the wrinkles on the forehead. Lastly, I smoothed out the shape of the head as it was bugging me. I'm going to continue on making changes so please leave your comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
