DementedHero Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 Made this illustration of a Phoenix holding a weblayout, I had a couple new idea's for the FenixDesign logo, and heres one that my mate liked the best.. He wanted it kinda firefox style.. Still working on the text.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eissob Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 Well, i like the concept but dont think its totally finished. The weblayout... maybe let it look more like a weblayout cant really figure it out. If its their website, maybe that would explain it and make it look like a layout. Then about the phoenix, the head looks cool, the wings and arms arent bad either looking good. But maybe you could work a bit on the tail, it maybe needs a bit like a live of its own (dutch, "sierlijk"). Like not a slim tail but a wider one with it look like 5 feathers or something. hope this is a bit clear. but thats what i would do for changes. But a nice idea.

Mercifull Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 Excellent vector work i love it ^_^ Maybe make the "web layout" a bit larger or more defined. You cant really tell what hes holding. Also maybe add some kind of red glow around the bird? Apologies for the bad quality glow on this lol. its a very old version of photoshop we have here at work :P As was also said i think the tail needs to be a bit thinner at the end maybe?

X3ro Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 I like it; but you should change the 'layout' it looks like a uhm mail or something. "Postduifje :P" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keiphus Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 Would be cool to see the tail curve up and loop or something. Very nice concept, it's coming along. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keiphus Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 Oh, and let me say something about that glow. I think it's a cool concept, it's one of the few places it would look good. It doesn't look like some nasty filter pile, it's a well used glow. However, unless this is going to be STRICTLY a web company, ie, this logo will never be printed; I strongly suggest you don't use the glow. I know from experience that glows and shadows print horribly on business cards and letter heads, etc. Just thought I would throw that in there.

A glowy one for the site. A regular one for print in colour and a specially recoloured greyscaled one so it still looks good when printed in mono Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.

Keiphus Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 Yeah, I guess if it was designed for print it was a failure from the get-go. ;) Many people believe the idea of "If it doesn't look good in B&W, it's not a good logo." This would lose its spunk if printed in B&W. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DementedHero Posted November 26, 2004 Author Share Posted November 26, 2004 Thanks for the comments people. The layout he is holding is just a sloppy sketch right now, will be replaced with the actual layout of the site.. I had the biggest trouble with the tail, I couldnt get a good look out of it, this was the best out of my sketches.. Will try something similar to this, a bit mroe feather defined curly tail, as I drew in school today. I like the glow idea, but as said, it wouldnt be printed.. But it would be useable for just the layout, as mercifull suggested, and an altered b-w and/or normal coloured version for print.. Im gonna make a post soon with a couple of logo designs I made for my mate, I have a couple more, but theyre mainly text based logo's. Thanks for the helpful comments guys, this is really helping me :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vladmoney Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 its looks nice, but it would be better i think if the body of the phenoix looked more like a bird. Visit my DeviantArt Page at http://vladmoney.deviantart.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People think I'm an [wagon] but that's only because the first time I offer constructive criticism they come up with some bs about how they are too tired to fix it. You don't.

entangle Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 Finally, half decent work brought to the media board. I really like this to be honest, doesnt remind me too much of a Pheonix, but more of the Firefox logo (in ways). I think the back end could possible go, and the arms brought round more with the head more centered.

I'd like to see the flames kind of flowing off like feathers would. Right now it kind of looks like puzzle pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kratt Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 omg, im jealous lol. i wish i could draw -.- nice one, i like it, but the weblayout hes holding... i find its not really good with the bird :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrothKahn Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 The colouring, the head and the concept is great. But I personally dislike the body structure, and as mentioned snout the tail. Also for it to be more pheonix like, where the lefts wings are, you could add some extended flames that arent attached to the wing. All in all it's great work, looking forward to seeing the new designs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ill get another design for the tail, and Ill add extended loose flames.. Dont expect anything tomorrow, got exams coming up.. Have to study.. Might be able to work on it on sunday, or at latest monday.. Most time taking part will be the resketching on paper.. Helps me to egt my options straight :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
