Request: Graphic

Hey, I know some of you might want to take a stab at this, so here goes my request:

I want a picture of a T-Rex holding a Baseball Bat, but can only use 3 Colours and will be on a Royal Blue background. Colors include the outline of anything (so if you use Black to outline your character, that is a colour).

I need this fairly quick as this is the Logo for my Baseball team and I want to get the order in for the Jerseys ASAP!

Get to designing!

I'll see what I can do, I'm headed to Drumheller for a few days but I'll try to make a rough tomorrow morning

So team colours narrowed down.

Background: Royal Blue
Logo: White, Black, Red, in any combination, but must be solid gradient, no shading or variants allowed.

Hope that helps, so your Dino should be using only White, Black, Red and transparency.

Thanks Mr. A!

I'll do it as a high quality PNG.

Whats the deadline? I'll be tied up for the next 4 days somehow haha

Gah, I'll see what I can do

Yep, I've been cleaning my house out today (I have an assessor coming over later this week) so I'll get on it tonight.

Here's the preview JPG, the full PSD should be in your mailbox. I used the font you mailed me but I think a baseball / chunky letter font would work a bit better (but whatever).

Let me know what you think, I went with a MLB type parody logo...

I think it is awesome. I think I agree that the font could use a tweak

Thanks very much for the feedback!

Yeah, I wish I could round it out a bit, we'll see what Mel thinks. Also I think I will increase the white border around the t-rex a little.

Looks good. If you can send me the T-Rex with the White Outline thicker as you suggested. Also you can use Black in places if you want to emphasize it. Can also be more cartoony if you want to play with it some more, even make the bat really over sized if you want.

I'll deal with the text part when I work with the image before sending it to print. Just needed the T-Rex part, which I think will work with what you have. But yeah, the white is too thin for the print.

Melbosa · August 09, 2011, 08:27:32 AM

Here is one that another buddy of mine did, but the colors don't match and it looked too hand drawn (need that digital cartoon look for a good print)

Melbosa · August 09, 2011, 08:32:04 AM

Actually as I look at it, may need to make the finer details more simple - say the teeth won't print on silk screen very well as the detail is too fine. Take the Toronto Raptors logo as an example, as they would be the same problem if they had the teeth that small.

Don't get me wrong, I love the T-Rex, but the fine line details won't print. Need it to be a bit more thicker and bulkier for the print to show.

I hope this is helping you out?

Mr. Analog · August 09, 2011, 09:14:09 AM

I'll see if I can find some time today to make changes, but honestly it might be tough, got a lot to do today
