Hopper ChopperLogo Design Contest

Modern, slick, sophisticated. Uses a stylized helicopter shape with the name as the rotors.

Same as before but opposite direction.

(This comment references Entry #8)

And again, only this time more edgy with it being at an angle as if taking off.

As before but in opposite direction.

Stylized rotor blades spinning.

Helicopter design created from the initials HC.

(This comment references Entry #15)

Can you make # 14 appear to have the words HopperChopper turning as a rotor would?

Good work

Kapt

Really like #16 as well

posted earlier I would like to see Hopper chopper turning....could you do the same for #16.

I like the fact it could be used with or without the words hopper chopper on the first idea. (just the HC with the rotor.)

Probably need more than 1 color. Like the red and black and the red and blue of some of the other logos.

Your concept is awesome!

Can you put the helicopter above the words Hopper Chopper in lieu of beside it?

Hi, sorry, been away from my desk. No problem, I'll get cracking with some revisions for you. Glad you like them.
Will get something uploaded later today. D

Hi Kapt. Alternatives as requested. Let me know what you think. The color options are looking good I think.

(This comment references Entry #18)

Entry 20 is looking very good to me.......Even though I noticed the H C right away, some others did not.

Not sure if you could make them more obvious and still keep the same concept.

Looks Great.

Leave it with me and I'll see what I can do. It may be I could try coloring the H and C differently - and match these colors to the Hopper and Chopper - this may help. Might try changing the shape of the H slightly too. Also, just as a thought. Have a look at the icon when it's straight rather than tilted - do you think you can see the letters easier in this version?

Will upload some alternatives tomorrow.

Happy to amend. Want to get something that's right for you.

What happened to your entries...Whats a a logo court?

Blink said my entry was like his. He logged a complaint that I copied him. My original design was nothing like his - you asked me to move the position of the icon to the top and change the color also, so I did. He then said it was like his and all the other designers in this comp voted against me while I was asleep overnight so i couldn't defend myself (UK time difference).

This is really unfair and out of line considering my design wasn't like his to start with. He has done this out of pure badness - totally unfair. Can you contact Logo Tournament to back me up as I also contacted them today about this.

In addition he has the audacity to steal my design for himself and use it - please can you do something about this - look at his icon now - it's almost exactly the same as my design was only his is not as good or as strong. I am so p*ssed about this that I seem totally helpless to defend myself here.

Your entry was posted before his was. I agree he seems to be copying yours. Yours was much better.

I told him his was not as recognizable as far as the H and C was concernred and he came back with a design closer to yours.

This is not right.

Could you also send an email to Logo Tournament about this? Would you mind. It backs me up also as I have emailed them regarding this. Do you have any way to reject his design from the tournament? I'll see if there's any way I can re-submit my entry.

If you report him to Logo Tournament I might be able to get somewhere with re-loading the file.

As you say. my design was posted before his and he has now copied my design and I feel helpless to do anything about it.

THanks

I sent them an email. Hopefully fairness will prevail.

You did absolutely nothing wrong. I do agree with you, that he copied you after he got yours removed.

I dont want in the politics of it all, just the logo.

Hi Kapt, thanks for doing that. I understand you don't want any politics - and as the client I 100% agree that you shouldn't have to deal with any of this - you are only after a logo at the end of the day. Hopefully they let me come back on board and I can get on with creating the logo you want.

Thanks for helping, hopefully speak soon

Derek (aka Brandmaster Flash)

You're back!

Yup sure am, happy to be here. Will get working on those amends you asked for and upload something tomorrow if thats ok. Looking forward to it,

Speak soon

Hi Kapt. Amended versions of the logo as discussed. I've given a few options on the HC standing out a bit more based on the two designs you like best. Also slightly changed the angle of the icon.Let me know what you think.

(This comment references Entry #49)

#50..... I do like it better with the lesser angle of tilt. Good work

Also would like to see that exact design and color scheme with an ESPN type font if possible

oops. Just noticed # 56 has that ESPN style font. Dont let that get you in trouble.

Hi Kapt, no problem, I'll get the changes made and upload soon. I'll cut the existing font in tht style and I'll see if I can find an alternative.

Speak soon

Hi Kapt, amended designs as requested. 2 options on the font. The first uses a cut version of the original font I used. The other is an ESPN styled font as requested. Let me know if you'd like any other amends. D

Hi Kapt, I notice you're starting to prefer more of the picture style logos, so I've re-worked my design to fit in with this style. I've used many elements that you seem to be proud of, like your patriotism and being based in texas - also used a tattoo (Ed Hardy) inspired american eagle to suggest the flight aspect of your services. The good thing about this is that you can still make use of the original icon that you seemed to really like at the start. I've tried to design in the mind of how it would look on the back of a flight jacket - so to show this, I've also placed it on a black background. Hope you like the new version. Let me know if you'd like any changes. Thanks.

(This comment references Entry #126)

Hi Kapt, new designs attached. Have made the HC stand out a lot more, taken away the eagle and made the colors much more themed along Texas - I think it's now standing out really well. Let me know if you'd like any other changes. THanks. D

(This comment references Entry #143)

Youre moving up the rankings fast...hope my contest helps.

Getting a lot closer.......Time to make one last modification......On the heli......how bout making the H black and the C (tail) gray.....Trying to get the heli to pop a little more without taking away from the red white blue theme. If you have any other suggestions on how to make that happen, let me know. Might even try making it just a hair bigger, but not much. Very proportionate right now.

Damn this is hard to judge....there is some great work out there. You should be proud.

Kapt

Hi Kapt, no probs, I'll sort this and upload some new designs.

Thanks for the compliments - I'm really trying to get well founded on this site as I feel it's a great place for a designer like me to be. There's so much variety to work on out there.

I'll be in touch over the weekend - thanks for the feedback, as ever, it's appreciated.

Hope things are good the the land of Texas.

Speak soon

Derek

Hi Kapt, hope the weekend's been good. Some amended versions attached. I think the HC is really standing out a lot better now. I made it bigger (still keeping in proportion though) and beefed up the white line around it. I also raised it up from the main name a bit. Played around with the colors too and included a black and grey version too. Let me know if there's anything else I can do for you. Thanks. Derek

Hi Kapt, let me know if there's anything you need changed to help with the final judging. I can change anything you need.

Hope things are good.

Thanks
