Thanks for feedback and ranked, I submit revision of my entry : base on #6 : #23 and #25 combining entry #6 and #11 : #24 base on #14 : #26 change "defense" in grey and make top and bottom emblem orange base on #11 : #27 #28 #29 and #30. I am still working in your contest and will be update as soon as possible. If anything to modified don't hesitate to tell me.
Just got back from jiu jitsu. I'm thinking also this would look good as a gi patch when I sponsor fighters. Google gi patches (images) to see some examples. I will upload a picture when I figure it out.
Our favorites right now are entry #27 because of the simplicity and we could brand the emblem on a clothing line. Also, we like entry #24 but would like the (defense) to be grey, leaving the shield (red). Thank you.
Sorry back to the contest, I am submit another entry : - base on #24 : #33 (change "defense" in grey) - gi patch version : #34 #35 #36 #37 #38 #39 - add cross in the middle of shield : #40 and #41 I am still working on your contest, I will come up with another variation as soon as possible.
#40 is our favorite. I'd like to see it with some different cross variations. Also, entry #37 would look cool with a cross on the shield and defense spelled correctly. Thanks.
Thanks for feedback, I am submit new entry : - base on #37 : #47 (with cross in the middle of shield, sorry for miss spelled) - base on #40 : #48 #49 #50 #51 #52 #53 #54 (with different cross)
Man this has been tough. I was sold on your entry several times over until #71 came through. This made me feel like going with a more simplistic logo. You've done everything I've asked. I don't know how to instruct you any further without copying the other designer. All I can say is scratch the shield and cross. Come up with a creative DD that is simple and decisive. I like the name running together underneath the emblem. I would also like to see the emblem inbetween the name. Google - Georgio Armani logo for ideas. Keep the font decisive.
After 65 submission I am still trying submit new idea, is not about win or lose it about to be part of Doan Defense its more than win or lose. Sorry if I submit a lot of items, I just want to do my best in this contest. I am stay to be original with my design not copying other designer work, that my commitment in this business.
