Artists help needed please. - RESULT !!! -

[grizz]

I suspect most of you know or associate my user name with a Grizzly Bear (with a sore head) ;D

I have had this idea in mind for some time to get a very basic and simplistic design of a grizzly bear to turn into a logo for the bus.

The idea will be something that one can draw easily, or almost simple as child art (which is not that simple, or else I would have done it) I am no artist.

I want either a Grizzly bear head, or a head and paw/s in this simle style.

As examples......

Saltrock surfboards have a great logo.





Here is a bear I photgraphed on the tube this week.



And a McDonalds litter logo, the same style is used on the toilets.



Here is another logo, again just the idea.



And a grizzly as example.

Soooooo.... if anyone of you are a fast hand with a very basic drawing, and don't mind having a go, either by PM or on the thread here, I would appreciate it massively.

I know that some PC programmes are clever and can alter a pic to line drawing, cartoon etc, but am not clever enough to do that.

Thanks,

Rian.

Thanks Automatik

Thats the idea. I want if more crisp, and know that to try get this bear into a shape that looks like the monkey for instance or McDonalds logos is not an easy as it looks.

I did this a while back but its a bit too detailed for a logo.

Here's my first attempts Rian, if there is anything there you like let me know.

[neilc]

No artist either, but here's my attempt

[grizz]

Thanks guys.

Neilc, the right hand one could translate into a brand (Think soldering iron with small tip in that shape)

Mike, as always the artist in you makes me grin and realise just how pathetic my own drawings and ideas are.


I personally love the 3rd one down on the left.

Alternately, the same G as in there, but on the rump of te top right bear may or may not work.

I like the font of the G.

I would also use Grizz, rather than Grizzly.

Tome30 I love that bear.
He is however too complext for what I plan, but he is verrry cool.

Thanks Mike,

I was just about to send you a PM, but here it is.

Looking forward to the alternates.

Nicola liked the top right one best as well.

Though I think as a stamp/brand the 3rd one down on the left looks more purposefull, except te eye may be lost in a small version.

Cool image Phil.

Imagine the outline as a brand or stamp.

Love the claws.

I do like that.

Have been playing with an dea of a pawprint inside a square box with rounded corners and the Grizz wording below, outside the box.
