Thank you for your entry. We like it very much.

Is it possible to make it in all black?

Also it could be nice to have three different type of dogs. Now it looks like you have made three types of hunting dogs?
Could you maybe draw one hunting dog (the labrador in the front is good), and one sheepdog/border collie type of dog? and on the top a smaller dog type eg a West Highland White Terrier ?

Thank you.

Can you make the Westie's face turned toward us, so we see the happy eyes etc. ?

As requested, I updated the Westie with a cheerful expression at entry #166 while also keeping the dog scales match...

I added Entry #168 for good measure and make the Westie hold a ball, the Lab with a bone and the Collie with a leash...

Thank you - we like the westie on entry #175
And we prefer that the dogs dosnt have anything in their mouth. Can you maybe make the eyes on the labrador a bit more smiley/happy?

Thank you for your new entries.

As you can see from our ranking the entry #182 is our favorite :)

We like the labrador and the westie a lot :) Can you change the labrador eyes back to how it was before with the open eyes?

We also like the face of the border collie and the black/white colors, but we are not so keen on the corder collies body structure...

Can you change the body of the border collie? It could be sitting, lying, standing, running or maybe sitting on its hind legs but with the body strait up as if it says "please" (see our latest uploaded photos of border collies for inspiration). The border collies can be in many crazy colors (as you can see on the photos) but we prefer it to be in black/white as it is now on the entry.

Text type:
We like the typography on entries #182 and #187 - but the text is too bold on entry #187

Can you also try with a typography where the "d" is a bit "higher" so it dosnt look like an "a" (do you know what we mean?)

It could be nice if you could try with some different text styles (maybe 4-5 different types?)

Thank you :)

Hi Contest Holder (CH) I will first try to work on what you would like for the Collie to appear without breaking the current layout and fit the three dogs in a more compact looking logo and once you are satisfied with the Icon, I can work on Font Variations, would that be amicable to you?

Give me a few hours to figure out the best placement for the Border Collie.

Thanks for the input.

Client
Sounds very good. Thank you :)

Hi CH, the first request:

1. I tried to make the three dogs fit the same compact way for a more wrapped and cohesive logo as I previously intended while playing with their placement, I have now fit the Border Collie with a new action and overall "Please" Demeanor...

2. Replaced the Labradors eyes back to the original, but I made some slight adjustments to him to refine the look a bit.

3. Finally, I edited the letters "d" from the original selection.

Let me know if you have further inputs... Thanks!

I submitted an alternate Font Styling so that you have one option to look at while I wait for the feedback for the updated icon. New Font's at Entry #189

Hi CH,

Let me know if you need more updates. I also made some more reviews for the font, and although I can slap in several previews of font styling that I feel wouldn't work, I'd rather submit one by one where you can have feedback on that I can gauge for.

Hi Dorte,

Let me know what adjustment you further need. To complete the 4 Font Selections, I have submitted another set of font at Entry #191

Hi Chris,

1. There is something "wrong" with the border collie's hind leg. :) It looks like it doesn't belong to the dog - but is the terrier's toy.. or something. Could you either remove it - so no hind leg is shown at all, or draw it differently? :-)
2. Can you draw the border's front leg, the one on the ground a very tiny bit thinner?
3. Can we see the logo without the top line?

Font:
1. We prefer the a in Lundvad in 188 and 191.
2. We don't like the font in Lundvad in 190
3. Could you change the a in Lundvad in 189 + replace the font in Hundeakademi with the font in 188?

We find it a bit difficult font wise - we don't know what to suggest - but know what we like and dislike when we see it..

Thanks!

Good Day Lea and Dorte,

It took me some time to make the update as I brainstormed a bit on the Font to use and I couldn't find a good balance that I think would lean towards what you would like so I decided to Draw For You A Custom Font based off of your feedback.

You can see the fonts at Entry #192 and #193

Also notice the two versions without the circular line and the dogs spread out evenly.

And the second one maintaining the same compact style of my originals but varying the overall scale and cut of everything else to match.

Let me know what you think.

Hi Chris,

We really like your new entries and your custom made A :)

Text:
We like the font in #192 #193 so thats a keeper. With "Hundeakademi" we would like to try two things.
-Can you keep the font but use capital letters?
- We wouyld like to see "Hundeakademi" in white letters with a black background -like in a square/rectangle (do you know what we mean?)

Picture:
We think that we like the logo without the circular line the best but havent decided yet :)
#192 can you try to even the space between the dogs. Perhaps move the border collie towards the labrador a tiny tiny bit...

Thank you so much !

No Problem Dorte & Lea,

Give me some time to make the changes.

Thanks, Actually It's not just the custom "a", the whole Lundvad text is custom drawn and measured based on helvetica but remade to merge between arial and helvetica so the whole font is based on standard but is custom for this project.

Hi Dorte & Lea,

Thanks for loving my design.

Do you have any particulars for the secondary font? I have drawn a custom font for Entry #196 that I think you would love too, so let me know what you think.

Let me know if you need further updates?

Hi Chris,

The font in "Hundeakademi" is also a keeper! Love it!

We are very happy with the logo! We have one final request - we suddenly noticed the labradors right paw - can you close the line a little bit? Only with a very fine thin line and perhaps it doesn't close the paw completely....

Thanks!
Lea & Dorte

Hi Lea & Dorte,

Good to hear, thanks for choosing me to work with you.

I have attached entry #197 for your final approval. FYI, after you have closed your contest by setting the winner, I will be refining it a bit more before submission. Then I'll private message you once your Final files are ready to download and for approval.

Thanks

Hi Lea & Dorte,

Id be glad to answer them via Private Message, right now you will need to close your contest and announce the winners so that the system will allow me to submit the required Files by LogoTournament for your Final Approval.

Other file formats you may need I can send via the email since LogoTournament only allows the standard EPS and Jpeg.

Let me know if you have further concerns.
