I like it. can you get it in scratch and sniff
Posted By: sigma Re: New Skunkworks Autosport Logo - 02/04/06 04:19 AM
That's actually pretty cool. There's VERY few stickers I'd put on my car, but I'd put that one on there if it was relatively small and I had a legitimate reason to do so.

Two things I feel wrong about that second image:
- skunk needs less blurry
- border along the words should continue closer to the picture, particularly along the bottom. Right now it "squares off" the picture and makes it feel disconnected.

But I like that logo a lot!!

Now if it would just fit the sail panels.....Awesome !!!

That image we used for the Skunk is a Lockheed martin modified logo. And when you zoom in on it it becomes super blurry.

Im thinkin about the Sail Panel thing, Could be HOT!

Tell Mike he needs to stop being lazy and redraw the logo.

I mean come on, what are you going to do with a logo thats about 120 pixels tall. Not much application for that. Vector that stinky google image.

IMO the skunk looks good, although resolution needs to be improved. I would have though that he would have drawn it in either illustrator or by hand, and then scanned it in at a decent res. but it doesnt even match the resolution on the rest of the logo. The rest of the logo looks like an afterthought. Not trying to knock the design but those changes should probubly be made before the big marketing rollout happens...

Posted By: Loco4G63 Re: New Skunkworks Autosport Logo - 02/06/06 03:01 PM
Looks pretty good....redraw the logo bigger and you are golden.
Posted By: svt4stv Re: New Skunkworks Autosport Logo - 02/06/06 05:43 PM
you should add "we stink" at the bottom of the logo

This item needs to be at SZ06'
Posted By: g r y m e s_dup1 Re: New Skunkworks Autosport Logo - 02/07/06 01:36 AM
I think I prefered a happy skunk. Less likely to stink up my car.
Posted By: pug252 Re: New Skunkworks Autosport Logo - 02/07/06 02:34 AM
So where is this place at?

You get a Score based on a few area's then your name goes on a list like every other Government job.

Soo i could get called today or 3 years or never.

The worst part is they don't tell you what # on the list you are.
Posted By: UPSTART-SVT_dup1 Re: New Skunkworks Autosport Logo - 02/07/06 03:54 PM

Nice logo, but I like the all black look.
Posted By: Steeda. Re: New Skunkworks Autosport Logo - 02/07/06 04:01 PM
Ohh wow!!!!
Whats everyone else think?

Posted By: g r y m e s_dup1 Re: New Skunkworks Autosport Logo - 02/07/06 04:09 PM
Bad. Why not somehow translate the stripe of a skunk into this horizantal element? That could be a bad idea also. But I do think the skunk gets lost in the black box. And whats the application? Is the text always going to be surrounding the skunk when the logo is used?
Posted By: Steeda. Re: New Skunkworks Autosport Logo - 02/07/06 04:11 PM
There will be the Skunk Alone and then the logo with the words and such.

i do see how it can get lost though
Posted By: svt4stv Re: New Skunkworks Autosport Logo - 02/07/06 05:35 PM
the black one is awesome. remember, skunkworks, SR71.... black black black


what about carrying the checkered flag theme onto the white stripe on his head.

No way really?



How about Have Blue?

You guys need to get hood ornaments made too.


This is more representative of the shop though.

In a picture, I'd say the black one looks better. In a decal though I'd say the other one looks better.

coming from you that means SOOO much
Posted By: m!key Re: New Skunkworks Autosport Logo - 02/07/06 10:42 PM
really guys, i can sit here and make a million different variations of the logo given the time. as steeda and barge can tell you i exhaust every possiblility when given an assignment. i have easily 50 hand drawn sketches of the skunk logo and type and at least 25 different variations of the logo on the computer. this design was to be used for shirts, stickers, etc. the black one would be way too heavy for a stitched logo for a shirt and would come out horrible. in fact the checks near the base of the tail are probably going to be too small. when you spend time in a pursuit you find out what you can and cant do.
Posted By: svt4stv Re: New Skunkworks Autosport Logo - 02/07/06 11:02 PM
sounds like excuses steeda, i suggest you find a different vendor
Posted By: Steeda. Re: New Skunkworks Autosport Logo - 02/07/06 11:09 PM

Posted By: Trapps_dup1 Re: New Skunkworks Autosport Logo - 02/07/06 11:20 PM
The word "SKUNKWORKS" is easier to read in the Mikey logo. Something about the font and inverse fool the eyes a bit near the KW. Cost is key and you want an image that works in B&W. This will easily be accomplished. Is there a 2c or 4c in the plan? As for embroidery, newer machines are capable of some very high resolution (threads per inch). In screen printing, you'll be ok with the logo at it's current size.

Show us 2c! Without italics.

I like the outline logo better too. Looks cleaner.

If you like the white letters on black, try splitting the banner instead of running it behind the skunk, and have the skunk in the middle by himself. That'll pull that part of the logo out more & you'll still get the banner effect.

And slap a couple of walnuts under that bugger. He's lookin' a bit girly...

Why not have the text wrap around the skunk in the shape of a circle?
