Canine CastawaysLogo Design Contest

This is my proposal.
Comments are welcomed. Thank you!

(This comment references Entry #1)

Thank you for entering! This is great and we like it a lot. Can you add a female to this logo?

Also, we specialize in small dogs. Perhaps a smaller dog or several smaller dogs? Thank you!

Thank you for your comments.
I'm going to make some changes and I will send them later.
Thank you!!

Now, I'm going to add a woman following your suggestions.
Thank you!

We like where you are headed! Can you merge a home and a female to the raft logo? The sail looks a little bit like a tree. Maybe the dogs can be moved to the left, the people to the right and the home in the far background?

Thank you!

Hi Javier,

Thanks so much for your entries! Here is our feedback on each:

Entry #5: Please remove the man and woman from the raft. We'd like to see them by the home, and keep the dogs on the raft. The dogs are on a "journey" and at the end of that journey is a loving home.

Please make Canine Castaways the same color (both words). We like the gradient blue used in Entry #3 and wonder if it can go a little darker at the bottom of each letter.

This logo will be used to create t-shirts. Our t-shirts will likely be blue in color. Are you able to provide us with an inverse? Please advise.

Again, many thanks for your submissions. Great job!

Love the revisions....Could you also do one with the smaller dog having erect ears like a chihuahua?

Sure!! I'm going to make it now.
Thank you!

New revision added with the chihuahua.

B&W Monochrome version.

Hi Javier-
Love the chihuahua. How about adding something to the sail like a pawprint or a dog bone? (Entry #8)

OK!! I will send new revisions later.
Thank you very much for your comments!

Different concept.

(This comment references Entry #21)

You have been great to work with. Thanks so much for entertaining all of our different ideas. You have done a great job portraying exactly what we have suggested.

As we have discussed our main color is blue but would love to see some color variations that would mix well with blue too. The blue that we are using is a deep royal blue.

Thank you very much for your comments.
I'm going to make some changes now with different color schemes and I will submit them soon.
Thank you!

Same concept but with emblem style.
Thank you!

Emblem style with slogan in two lines.
Thank you!

(This comment references Entry #40)

Definitely prefer the slogan in two lines on the emblem style (entry #40).

The note in the bottle idea is very clever and original. (Entry #21) I could see that being used in conjunction with the other logo in some way on our website, etc. Don't know that it completely conveys our purpose by itself.

Javier,
This logo (entry #33) would look great on white shirts but since we work with dogs who have dirty paws, we can't do white shirts.

If we were to use blue t-shirts, what changes would you make to the colors in entry #33?

Or what color shirt would you recommend with the logo as is?

How about we try a version of Entry #33 with blue water similar to the water in the emblem, changing the color of the raft accordingly.

What do you think about adding a sun setting?

Would really appreciate your opinion.

No problem!
Tomorrow (my time, here it's 3 am now) I will submit some changes and different versions of them having in mind your blue t-shirts.
Thank you very much for your comments!

New version for tshirt (monochrome)

(This comment references Entry #43)

Thanks so much. Please also check out the updated contest brief for some additional ideas.

Hello!
I've just read the updated contest brief so then, do you want a cartoon style dog now (funny)?
I'm drawing a cartoon chihuahua, please, confirm if this is what you want.
Thank you!!

Detail

(This comment references Entry #49)

Thank you so much for all of your hard work Javier!! The new designs are full of personality!! We will share with the group.

Javier, you withdrew entry #42 and #43 before we could rank them. That is the monochrome entries for t-shirts. Any way to get them back?

My favorite is still #33. If you get a chance tomorrow, could we see #33 with Canine Castaways above the logo and slogan below?

We also really like the emblem. Could you make the inside area a little larger so that it is not cutting off the edge of the flag and house?

Sorry, I withdrew the "old" entries and, by mistake, I withdrew all not ranked entries.
I've just reinstated them.
I'm going to make the changes in emblem design and I will submit soon.
Thank you!!

New emblem

Emblem version for t-shirt

(This comment references Entry #54)

Thanks so much!! The changes to the emblem are perfect!! Also, thanks for the t-shirt version of the emblem.

What did you think about moving the wording around on #33, with Name above and slogan below?

AWESOME Javier!! Thanks so much!! These are GREAT!!

If you want to see any change else, please, don't hesitate to tell me.
Thank you very much!

I LOVE the brightness / color that the water adds.

Just a couple more little things...

#41 - Can you move the name above and add the slogan?

#9 - add a paw print to the flag.

#55 - Maybe making the house a little brighter blue would add the same brightness that the water did to #41?

New revision added.
Thank you!

(This comment references Entry #59)

Thanks Javier!! Getting ready to leave for work. Really like the gradient blues you used on the house in #59 & #60. Really brightened it. Can we try to brighten the raft a little so the dogs stand out a little more?

New revisions added.
Thank you!!

(This comment references Entry #62)

One last thing....

Entry #57 - Can you make the slogan on one line around the bottom of the water?

New revision added

(This comment references Entry #70)

Thanks so much for all of your hard work Javier!! Your concept was definitely a favorite. We shared all designs with our board and had a couple of different color ideas.

For entry #70...

Could we try the raft in gradient shades of brown?

We have been trying to come up with a second color and are considering green. Could you do a flag green with a blue paw or vice versa (earth colors)? Could you also show us the entry as is on a green background?

Please let me know what you think.

I'm not in my office now but we will make the changes later when I come back.
Thank you very much.
