New Fictional Logos

[hurricanekevin]

I posted these in the FHM forums but was just looking over them and was so pleased with how these came out I figured I'd post here too.



I'm a bit obsessed with trying to make birds that aren't eagles look like eagles right now. So here's a pigeon... err rock dove... attacking something


New York City Rock Doves
Brooklyn Rock Doves

Versions for Bronx, Queens, Staten Island, Long Island, New Rochelle, White Plains, Larchmont, and Lake Placid in the drive.

Denver Rams
Salt Lake City Rams
Grand Junction Rams

Hey hk! Just went through the entirety of this thread, and wow have you moved from "real good" to "pro level". Your use of bold, but unconventional color, is striking. Am using some of your stuff for my new fictional league and I had a long shot request...

Any way you'd be able to expand on the Salt Lake Rams? LOVE the fonts and colors here.

Yeah, its been a process. I started taking a few graphic design classes along the way and a lot of LinkedIn Learning courses which helped a lot.

I don't update this thread with everything I make, so I would encourage you to have a look at the linked drive in my signature for everything.



I could mess around with that Salt Lake City Rams idea when I have a chance. I had fun making those, they were inspired by old posters like the New Deal/ World War II era stuff.

Yeah, they are really striking. I started tinkering for awhile myself, and then real life intervened and I've not sat back down (instead of playing OOTP) to it in awhile.

I found your files right after I posted this and found even more cool stuff. I may try and match your colors/style on the Rams myself if I can squirrel away some time this week. You happen to know the font?

Its not a font I have on my new computer, which probably means it was some free font I found along the way.

You're so prolific - I see there's a whole new set of London logos. I particularly like Greenwich, Redbridge and Southwark. And there's so many in the main drive that it doesn't load well on my phone anymore

I spent most of December in the UK so I came back a little inspired to make a London league. While I was there I went to an Oxford Stars hockey game and really want to create a UK hockey league so I thought I might start in London with the burroughs and maybe grow from there.



I really liked those too, especially the Redbridge one. I'm still just practicing and trying to learn little techniques, so sometimes those don't work out... Not sure what I was thinking with Ealing lol

And, yeah, I just hit 4,000 logos total. (actually 4,125 as of now). That's every file since I started practicing so a lot of remakes and variations. I'm still learning and practicing though... Still reverse engineering stuff to see how people made logos I like.

Tried this....


Added the creepy white ram clip art in case you want to try this on your own. This font is called "Biggie Display" by Para-Scope Design & Type

Oh wow! This is a super pleasant surprise. Thank you! I will see what I can dig up on the font and see if I can't make some secondary/small logos

Noted! I'm not totally sure how to get a penguin to look like its "swooping" in for the "kill" haha... That kind of goes for all of the flightless birds, but maybe I can do this with a sparrow

Penguins can definitely swoop.

I chose birds for a laugh*, but you probably could make a hummingbird look tough--they CAN fly, and they've got a long, sharp beak.

*tempted to say "for a lark"

I was hoping to make a team in Copenhagen called the Mermaids. I liked this image do you think you could make something based on that?

[hurricanekevin]

I don't really do a lot of requests, but I had an extra minute so I played around with something.

I was very intentionally trying to make something that was reminiscent of Hanna-Barbera cartoons, specifically Snagglepuss. Laff-A-Llympics? I'm aging myself, aren't I? But I've been really inspired by cartoons lately as I try to level up my digital sketching game.
