Type of Contest : LOGO Design And Optional Character Design

Prize : $30.00 for logo. $50.00 for logo and character (details below)

Contest End Date & Time : 20th December 2012

Size Requirements : No requirement, min width of 400px. Larger the better :) so long as its not too square.

Color Requirements :Very flexible, Greys, Oranges, Reds, Greens, Off-White. Background will be either Orange, Light Grey or Dark Grey.

General Requirements :
Logo: The logo will be a standard logo to be used at the top of the page on my new site.

Character: This is an optional addition that I will pay extra for. I would like to have a character in the logo, and also one or two versions to use about the site, maybe a standing 'Don' and a face of the 'Don'


Additional Information :
The character is completely optional. I would be still happy to pick a logo without a character, I just wanted to reward those who make the extra effort of doing it.

So 'Don' is a crime boss, usually in the Mafia. Obviously I do not want something that looks criminal it needs to be friendly looking, but the character would need to be in a suit with a Fedora hat or similar (off-white/cream colour?). Optional cigar. (no guns or brass knuckles please!).

The site is a simple movie ratings and review site, so would like to use the face of the character about the site next to 'Dons Rating' or 'Dons review'.

I will be checking widely that characters are not copied from other sites or images. My last competition someone tried to do this :)


Any queries, do not hesitate to ask.

Thanks,
Richard

Thanks, can you make the left leg more like the right one, his body looks to face a different way to hit feet and head - his shoulders need twisting a bit.


Another idea would be to use a characters head as the O in 'DON'.

Just throwing a few ideas about :)

I will post more previews with different fonts soon.

Can you please post an example picture of full character. It will be easier to work on pose/angle and height. I might create lot bigger, which maybe become difficult to adjust.

coolwanz:
I like the small logo in the bottom right, they are all nice. Would like to see a bit more colour though :)

SK1990:
I like the suit! looks great, also like the contrast of size and colour used on the text. The Don doesn't look too friendly though, could you try some other facial expressions? (I know it seems mad to make a mafia guy look friendlier! lol)

A little more inspiration for ideas below, but I still like all the other ideas! Just throwing some different concepts out.

I like the 'shady' look of this:

This is what I meant by 'under a light with one leg bent, just imagine viewing it from the side, leaning against logo text (and being a mafia boss looking down, not a woman looking up):

I like it. Only suggestion would be to try some different surrounds behind the character, or try without any black lines behind him. Maybe try a secondary character, a full body one, same guy though.


Looking forward to more entries and revisions :)

I did a quick revision of my character. If I have time, later today I will try the "shady" concept. Feedback Appreciated.

Some previews with different fonts. I can add more if you want or If you have any specific font style in your mind. Let me know about name or preview image.

I'm working on full body design.

I actually created a full body sketch. Let me know what you think. If it's okay then i will create a vector.

Face looks a bit wonky, but the body/stance looks good :)

Could make the head look down, kinda looking at the floor infront of him maybe?

All looking good, some feedback below:

Amin - Can we lose the gradient on the text? It's a bit out of fashion these days.

coolwanz - the full body looks good, could you try a lighter version on a darker bg? (Sorry I am still undecided on a light or dark background)

Key - also looking good, the hat needs a little more detail in it I think and the nose looks a little too much to one side (maybe just me?) - could you do a 'headshot' of this same character like your previous one too?

Thanks guys

Key - Thanks, could you create a smaller 'headshot' of this new character? Similar to the previous one - or change the previous one so his suit matches the new ones :)

coolwanz - not so keen on the mustard yellow suit - could you try a cream/white suit and also the red colour from the previous logo?

Thanks
