Discussion

 
I like these very much! Please leave these up so that I can still see them but here are some thoughts- I think I would like to see #3 where the only words are "Ready Set Row" - make Ready set smaller font and on top, and then ROW in bigger font and on the bottom and Row is the only thing that is red- since that's the word that is accentuated. Remove the "indoor training camp" for now and Make the rower all black ... and then here is where it could get another piece- can the chain from his hand run into the "0" of Row? So that it looks like the O is the machine? And make the O out of chain material- the chain in a rowing machine is virtually identical to a bike chain so you could do it like that? Then if you can do that same design but with a line under the guy and the word ROW that is actually a barbell? Not sure how to do this but you are good so I think you can! Thanks so much for your great and hard work!

Hey Arttaurus - I think I still like #3 the best- but see my thoughts on how to modify this one. If you keep the guy on the left as you have it and make him bigger than the text as you have it (make him all black) and then have "Ready Set" in smaller font on the top with "ROW" in all caps below and then have the chain extend from the rower over to the "O" in ROW and make the whole "O" out of the chain texture... can you do that?
9 years ago
 
OOH! I like #8 - is there something you can do to make the handle and the chain more noticeable- I really want to make sure folks know that it is rowing on a machine not on the water... I am not sure how to do that- maybe there can be something in the O to make it clear it is an "ergometer"... if you google image "concept 2 ergometer" you can see the machine and get a profile view of it- it basically has a fan on the side- maybe you can make it have a few touches from that to make it clear that the person is using an ergometer?
9 years ago
 
Yes! #9 is more clear that they are on the ergometer - I like #9 the best so far I think. I think the profile of the erg in the 0 needs a little more work but it's definitely getting there!

Thank you very much. I am so happy to give you more options. Please check #12 with more specific image of the ergometer and also #13 with little enhancements from entry 9 . Hope that you like them. God bless!

Also I forgot to mention about entry #12 and #13 with more specific image of a chain on how it holds in hand. :)

These are interesting too - #12 I think has too much detail - I don't want people to have to look that closely at it. And I think it's too much red. If the handle and the chain carry into the O of ROW and then it's all the same color and the wheel of the ergometer is just a circle inside the 0 - like you line the O with the wheel.

I also think the person may look a little feminine, can it be a little more androgynous?

I mean #22 and #23 with all black colors with "ROW" and the abstract human .
9 years ago
 
I like 24 and 26- can this be simplified even more? Not sure...I like 22 better than 23 - if the chain can continue into the o and the inside of the "o" be lined with red- so it looks like the chain travels all the way around the circle?

I would also like to see #3 with READY SET on the top, smaller font and then ROW on the bottom to accent ROW and make that person a bit more masculine.

9 years ago
 
Can you try to make the hands a little less masculine and a little more abstract? using white space to conotate the muscle fibers?
9 years ago
 
Would you put a few of the ergometer details on #22?
9 years ago
 
I saw some designs that you did that are not up anymore? Can you put those back up- a few were cool and I just didn't have time right then to write feedback on them.

Sorry for removing my other designs because I revise it, it happens there are dots in the back ground ,and when I uploaded it back, my internet got slow so, just uploaded them back now. Please check #51 and #52 with change the human icon into the position of the body as you want. Also put a little details of the ergometer, hope you like the treatment I made of it. Also #54 and #55 with simplified hand, and avoid too masculine. Hope that you it too. If you want some changes, please do not hesitate to ask. God bless!

Can you put #26 with the chain in white like you did with 55 and put "Indoor Training Camp" underneath it. I think the arms in 55 don't look strong enough so not sure if there is a middle ground? Strong feminine forearms??? :)
9 years ago
 
And on 52 remove the screen on the ergometer - think that looks distracting

9 years ago
 
would you also on #56 make the opening of the R on top visible so that it is clearly a "R"? I have had a few people say it's harder to read

70 looks better- can you separate the o and w a bit - am getting some feedback that it is still a little hard to read and that the arms are bright white and the first thing you see. Was wondering if you could do a version where the arms are more like the abstract style like you did in the beginning based off the photo I upoaded "screenshot 2015" of the black shapes on the white background. Perhaps the arms are read with white or the arms are white and black and the ROW is read? Folks are telling me the arms are too distracting in bold white like that.

Also- would like to see you do one more style - am going to upload a photo of a drawing. Would have similar strong arms and legs in the shape of a rectangle - am uploading a drawing and a photo of a real rower so you can see the muscles in the shoulder and back that I want to show.

A - I am getting some feedback that the forearms over the row is too hard to read- would you think about keeping them but moving them off the word row- maybe below or somewhere else? Or writing row on top of them? Want to make sure it's clear to read but like your forearms, handle and chain... You could also mess with the font a bit- maybe make it look like the font is "faster" - on a slant or something

Thank you for your direction. Please check #80 #81 #82 . Hope that you like them . If you want changes , please feel free. God bless!

A - your #3 and 4 - can you do a few tweaks of those- my feedback from folks is they really like those two. If you can make him look a little less feminine- but not change him too much- I like him just make him a little more adrogynous; remove "CAMP" in both and then add a little bit of detail to show that it is indoor rowing on the machine- maybe just a faint fly wheel attached to the end of the chain or something?

Also, on #3- put READY SET on the top line so that ROW is accentuated on the bottom line and READY SET in black and ROW in red.

DO I need to make him more adrogynous?
9 years ago
 
Art I like these very much- the two that I just ranked as the top 2 can you also post these where the rower is all black? Also- can you tweak the head a bit- I had some feedback about the head specifically - not sure how else you can show it. I like that it looks like it is moving but folks think the head looks feminine

Number 90 I like the best so far - but can you reverse the colors. WHere the man is red, make it black .
9 years ago
 
97 looks very close. Will you make his quad muscle red and his chest muscle red. Chain black. And the 1/2 circle over him red
9 years ago
 
And one more thing for 97 - the bottom of his leg- the arc of it makes it look a little feminine- can you tone this down slightly so it's a little less feminine
