SDS Posted December 5, 2010 Report Posted December 5, 2010 This is a hand sketch that is being professionally made and will be cleaned up once scanned into Illustrator. Any comments? Ways to make it better?
Weave Posted December 5, 2010 Report Posted December 5, 2010 Can you use the same font that the team uses, or would that be treading on copyright infringement?

TM8-PL16 Posted December 5, 2010 Report Posted December 5, 2010 Looks Great!!! can't wait to see it in color!
Weave Posted December 5, 2010 Report Posted December 5, 2010 :blink: LOL I'll take that as, "I don't know"
SDS Posted December 5, 2010 Author Report Posted December 5, 2010 LOL I'll take that as, "I don't know" I'm pretty sure they didn't use "Arial" or "Helvetica". It's a logo created by an artist - there is no "font".

Ways to make it better? I like it. However it may be a bit trite or even corny but may I suggest a sword with a slight curve following the lettering as an underline going tip to handle ?

We're looking to tip our hat to the new thirds... I'm guessing this isn't apparent to everyone?

Weave Posted December 5, 2010 Report Posted December 5, 2010 It looks pretty good. I didn't catch that you were going for the same look as the 3rd jerseys. How about adding a bottlecap then? :P

Is it because it is a hand sketch or is the name too long to reasonably do what we want to do?
thesportsbuff Posted December 5, 2010 Report Posted December 5, 2010 I realized that it was resembling the thirds right away. I think it looks awesome. The only part I'm iffy about is how the letters overlap the swooshes (particularly the top swoosh). Maybe it would look better splitting the top swoosh in half, taking out the middle section where it was overlapped.

Is it because it is a hand sketch or is the name too long to reasonably do what we want to do? It could be just me. The 3rd jerseys don't click with me at all so I don't pay them any mind. When the coloring is added it may be more apparent.
shrader Posted December 6, 2010 Report Posted December 6, 2010 If people don't see the resemblance, then we're not doing it right. Is it because it is a hand sketch or is the name too long to reasonably do what we want to do? If people don't see it right away, I have no idea what they're looking at. It's clear as day. I for one look forward to the color version.
JujuFish Posted December 6, 2010 Report Posted December 6, 2010 If people don't see it right away, I have no idea what they're looking at. It's clear as day. I for one look forward to the color version. Yeah, it seemed pretty obvious to me.
SDS Posted December 6, 2010 Author Report Posted December 6, 2010 The otehr issue I have is because there are so many letters, having it on a curve takes up a bunch of vertical space. No problem on a short, but it takes up valuable vertical space in a banner. Not sure if straightening it would ruin the the effect.
Sterling Archer Posted December 6, 2010 Report Posted December 6, 2010 It tails away from the pov too much.

Is it because it is a hand sketch or is the name too long to reasonably do what we want to do? 1. I like it. 2. It was immediately apparent that you are trying to invoke the third jerseys. But something is a little off. My suggestion is that you give a photo of the new third to whoever is doing the professional work-up off of the sketch and say, "make it look like this."
spndnchz Posted December 6, 2010 Report Posted December 6, 2010 Bottom one. S in Sabre should be bigger than S in Space, IMO.
