DanOtis Posted May 10, 2014 Author Share Posted May 10, 2014 Another chance for the ball eating grizzly: - Most noticeably he now has a lower jaw- The basketball therefore is smaller now- I also rounded the edges of the ball what makes it look smoother now- The ball got a highlight on the middle "line"- He got a nose job that turned it from grey to black (to keep consistency to the primary as remarked by JP)- Moved the eyes a little bitStill choking?Does the black space feel too much?atbwDaniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whittier S Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Better. Not sure what to do with the black space. I'm afraid, though, it's always going to remind me of one of my least-favourite sports logos: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL_ArchMadness Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 this is my first post in this thread and i just wanna say terrific work all around.for your question about too much black space,i didn't know how to explain this so i made a very rough copy. But maybe just add the grey on the bottom jaw, idk here's the rough ideathis is just for a general idea. It would look much better in your own style. again, great work http://boards.sportslogos.net/topic/98633-2014-nfl-concept-expansion-series-dallas-cowboys/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that it could be something like that but it still should work from an anatomy point of view and I don't think that the space you filled out grey works in that aspect.I tried another version in which the grizzly does not have to eat anything and just look fierce. Think that it could work out that way as well - tried it on a shirt.atbwDaniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL_ArchMadness Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 I really like the version with the ball under the chin!! looks great http://boards.sportslogos.net/topic/98633-2014-nfl-concept-expansion-series-dallas-cowboys/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virtus Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I like these concepts. What do you think about a bear which chews the ball? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1clkgtramg Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Im surprisingly liking the ball under tge chin!And it seems someone else suggested the grizzly chew the ball did you ever try that yet? Or maybe even an update from the current claw one but with it piercing the ball?

STL_ArchMadness Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 i hope this is not too much to ask, and maybe you are already doing it..but you are soo talented, and your work looks like a real NBA redesign and it is so professional. So i just have to ask if you could make a 3rd logo like many NBA teams do when they rebrand?of course, i love your work. And would not be mad if you couldn't do this, just an idea to complete the set http://boards.sportslogos.net/topic/98633-2014-nfl-concept-expansion-series-dallas-cowboys/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGiantsFan Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I really, really like this awesome Grizzlies concept you got here! Very solid and professional-looking! You also have some really epic drawing skills. Well done! BEHANCE | PORTFOLIO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ren69 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Your work is amazing Dan. You've got tremendous skills, this is some top notch logo designing. Personally I like the one with the ball under it's chin better than in it's mouth. Also like how you added in the M & G to the nose & chin. Great stuff! https://www.behance.net/Ren1969 https://twitter.com/Ren1969_Rene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The M on the nose and G on the chin are cool (and hopefully intentional) details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanOtis Posted May 12, 2014 Author Share Posted May 12, 2014 Thank you guys for your comments. Also like the "ball under the chin"-version better although I'm not completely happy. But that T-Shirt implementation works so perhaps that's enough legitimation ;o)Worked a bit on the consistency thing. Added lighter grey highlights on the original logo so that the two complement each other better. So this is the set so far:i hope this is not too much to ask, and maybe you are already doing it..but you are soo talented, and your work looks like a real NBA redesign and it is so professional. So i just have to ask if you could make a 3rd logo like many NBA teams do when they rebrand?of course, i love your work. And would not be mad if you couldn't do this, just an idea to complete the set Tried my luck on a tertiary but so far I could not get anything done that I'm happy with. So perhaps I'll get to that later.atbwDaniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P34 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 As someone who struggles with animal logos/illustration these just look ace. I've seen many Grizzlies concepts and these are definitely up there. Nice work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whittier S Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Liking the new secondary much better. Gives the idea that the grizzly is some kind of basketball-bear-spirit. I don't know if that makes any sense, but it's much more powerful idea than gagging on a ball. Kudos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
