Dilomski Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Hello everyone,Although I am new in the forum, I have been checking this great website for a long time and I what a great website with great people it is!Anyway, since I have been always a fan of the american sport logos style, I made a custom fictional logo.Hope someone will like it and make it a real team logo, but until then its pure fun.The seagull is a popular character where I live, Burgas (Bulgaria, Eastern Europe).Its a good character for a logo, because it represents a hungry,nasty and sometimes aggresive bird.Hope you like it, comments and critics are welcome:)Primary logoAlternative logoWordmark logoDistressed version alternative logo More artwork at:http://www.dilom.eu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrano123 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I may have missed this, but is this a hockey logo? And this is very nice. However the seagull's face is a little awkward to me. Other than that it looks excellent!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FGWB Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 However the seagull's face is a little awkward to me.Glad it wasn't just me.Take a look at these examples of bird logos, generally, only one eye is shown. So maybe the solution is to eliminate the furthest eye, make the nearest one a bit larger, and mess with the size and shape of the beak a little bit.

officeglenn Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I think the beak needs to be larger/longer to help out the proportions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drdougfresh Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Look at the eyes, and look at the beak. The way you have it illustrated now, the perspective is way off. The beak is a profile view, and the eyes are 3/4, which is why the face looks off. It's sharply rendered -- once you fix the perspective issues, it will be a heck of a lot better.

Dilomski Posted February 20, 2014 Author Share Posted February 20, 2014 Thanks for all the support and c&c.The face was bothering me for a while, but I wasnt really sure what was the problem.Have to redesign this and improve it.Here are some dropped ideas for the logo with more profile look.

OliverP Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Now that's a lot better. I like that BS logo. Dribbble Behance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben5 Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Reevaluate the size of the beak. I don't think the "hand" grabbing the BS works. Birds don't grab things with their wings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodshackzac Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 The first of the new logos is better than the second, the only thing is that the "fingers" or whatever they are look awkward. Maybe make one wing kinda cover it instead of three little things.

Ragone Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Yeah I prefer the second one over the first one. Nice job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMurr Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 I think keep the colors from the first. Use them on the second and you have your primary logo. Drop the hand/wing from the first and I think this is a solid secondary logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTswag187 Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Great job on the update, but I'm not sure if having the initials "BS" is the smartest thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dilomski Posted February 22, 2014 Author Share Posted February 22, 2014 That was a cool albatross indeed.A bit sad that in english bs is often standing for bulls%it, I know.But the name of the town beginns with B, and Seagulls is with S, plus Burgas is popular to use short with bs.But anyway its a bit old logo and actually my first and only try with this specific sport style of logo.I am going to update it further, until satisfaction, maybe featuring a clean image logo without any letters like arizona cardinals or philly eagles have.
