nuordr Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Thanks, all! Like last time, I'm probably going to do a few new entries before I get to C&C after I've had a chance to distance myself from it for a bit.In any case - I've ALREADY come to a split-decision.Here's two options for the new look Dolphins.Edit: I'll be revisiting this - the more I look at it, the more I don't like the way I rendered the dolphin.Give that Dolphin something to eat!

jdp Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Thanks everyone for the CC! I took some of your advice and, I think, made this a better concept.The pupils look great. And the color change completely negates my previous shaggy comments. Well done! "Type something, will ya?

davidmiller5 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Not sure I like the Baylor-style font for Chicago. It feels like these Bears are stealing from those Bears, and Chicago shouldn't be copying Baylor. But good job on the concept (and the others too).

I can always look for other fonts, but I'm pretty happy with this look. My Portfolio | My Store | My Self Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weemunk Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Hey Dersch. I had some change recommendations for your Dolphins concept logo. I decided to go ahead and take a copy of your design and implement said recommendations myself. I think that makes it easier to get a sense of what the person is trying to portray if you can actually see it first hand as opposed to just trying to visualize it in your head.Original design Updated designHere are the modifications I made:- shorten the snout- round off the fins (dolphins have rounded fins)- bring the tail fin closer to the body- enlarged the sun a little- and i added a little twinkle in the dolphins eye.Just my two cents which is probably all it's worth. www.logos.fedffl.com | www.logos.fedffl.com/Misc-Logos.htm | www.logos.fedffl.com/Team_Signatures.htm | www.logos.fedffl.com/Championship_Banners.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdp Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 I can see you're going for a longer snout, and it works in the first iteration if the logo. Here, the snout looks a bit too long. The line you're using to differentiate the snout and the melon is throwing me of a bit, too. I first saw it and expected that to be the mouth. But, hey, in researching a dolphin more, I learned that melon is a technical term, apparently. So thanks for getting me to learn something new. "Type something, will ya?

derschwigg Posted March 12, 2014 Author Share Posted March 12, 2014 I'm just testing the waters here - would people be interested if I were to do a time-lapse/speed-art style video for some of the upcoming concepts?
