waynebar 52 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 I like it, I also like the color selection. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Juggernaut 11,054 Posted July 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 Thanks! Trying to pay homage to the original Izzy blue.... Edit...: can you tell that the arrow is a 12???? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
454496 71 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 (edited) Can't read it. The first letter? looks like an S. Just my 2cents Edited July 21, 2009 by 454496 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nalioth 405 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 Yeah, the "broken arrow" look isn't working for me, either. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Elkhound 91 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 At first, I could not tell. However, now that you have drawn my attention to it, I can tell that it is a "12." WJ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
waynebar 52 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 Thanks! Trying to pay homage to the original Izzy blue.... Edit...: can you tell that the arrow is a 12???? I readily associated the blue color, and knowing the S12 I did know it was the #12. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Juggernaut 11,054 Posted July 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 The "12" IS a bit abstract.... I monkeyed with that for literally a couple of hours... I know it may not pop right out at ya... but, I couldn't retain the "arrow" logo any other way.... But, hey... that's why I'm askin'! Thanks for responses.. good or bad...

gunman1 1,753 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 Can't read it. The first letter? looks like an S.Just my 2cents Same here. Other than that I really like it, even the "Broken Arrow" that is a 12 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sonnydazegunsmithing 42 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 really like it , it was the 2 that took me a minute to see Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gtnichols 51 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 Dude, that rocks! Good font work, The top of the 1 needs to come down to the 2 cross stroke, and add a little to to the top of the 2 and you will have a winner. What is the word on the right? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Juggernaut 11,054 Posted July 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 Dude, that rocks!Good font work, The top of the 1 needs to come down to the 2 cross stroke, and add a little to to the top of the 2 and you will have a winner. What is the word on the right? ".com" The top of the 2 was more solid in vector format... lost a little with the photoshop filters..... I will clean up if it goes to press.. "Dude... Good Eye!... you Sooooo were a printer......." Edit, I think I need a little more kerning between letters as well.... Edit 2: OK.. I see what you are saying... I was matching up the 2's "negative" space with the arrow tip of the 1 you're saying make the arrow tip of the one larger to match the positive or outside dimensions of the 2...

superA 289 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 I can read it man looks good, maybe a bit bold at the top of the two and a bit more black in between in the letters, of course then it would be obvious. As an Add I'd say bolder, as art, I like it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SovietGinger 16 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 I would add a corner edge to the top left corner of the "o" in .com. I kept thinking it said "cam" as if you were putting in a new saiga12 live video stream. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nailbomb 10,221 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 As an Add I'd say bolder, as art, I like it. This describes my feelings perfectly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gtnichols 51 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 You got it! It rocks, forget about the neg space and go for balance in the middle, I think the kerning looks great the way it is Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Juggernaut 11,054 Posted July 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 Adjusted the "12", added the "-", filled the corner of the "o" and tweaked the kerning a hair.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
superA 289 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 (edited) If you put that on a T-shirt I will buy it for sure. And I only wear plain white, black, gray or blue cotton shirts, in that order. This is a compliment. Edited July 21, 2009 by superA Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bvamp 604 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 nah, bring the shaft of the 2 down lower. almost like a Z shape I like that Drew, show Max. He's gonna like that..... edit to add - maybe pull the fin on the 2 out on a triangle, and clip the end point on the bottom. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bvamp 604 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 are you gonna tatoo that on your other shoulder joey? I like that, Drew. That is f'n slick man. Where was this three years ago? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He's gonna like that..... edit to add - maybe pull the fin on the 2 out on a triangle, and clip the end point on the bottom. I been playing with the vector image.... Elongating the "arrow head" a little and shortening the "fetching" a bit does wonders... I want to keep the symmetry as G.G. said... If I add to much length on the arrow head the one no longer looks like a one. if I take to much off the bottom, the 2 no longer looks like a 2.. Gonna find a happy medium.. "Tomorrow"... I mess with it too much.. I'm gonna "lose" the arrow look all together... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If anything I say cut the back of the one a bit, sorta slope the two together and bevel the bottoms, maybe make the bottoms look like AK bolts, that may be getting a bit carried away though. It's gonna turn into a god damn Norman Rockwell! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
