#95 Whale Tail
#96 abstract sundial

Scott

Hi, Scott! Glad you entered.
Request -- look at this link of the South Carolina state flag...
http://www.netstate.com/states/symb/flags/sc_flag.htm
If you could use that same crescent shape in #95, we may have something cool!
Please and thanks,
~Geoff

P.S. Love #96 but not literal enough for the client. : (
I attached a picture of the clock they love so much on the contest brief page.
Have a look and see if you think you can come up with a cool, abstract way to depict it.
If not -- trust me -- I understand.

Loving #109!
Do it in black and white (or grays), please?
(Maybe curve the bottom part of the tail portion. Looks a bit "cut off." Ouch : )
Thank you, sir!
~G

Black/gray version of #108, too, please? Thanks!

YES!

#12 #13 #14

I have shortened the amount of the tail out of the water it's more square now than being a wee bit too tall in the original version

#116

The whale/dolphin tail is an abstract golf tee and the crescent shape from the State Flag represents a golf ball...the meaning behind my work has visual and cool impact.

It's awesome, Scott. Can't wait to share it tomorrow morning!

dang can't get to number 1 spot...I'll win one of your contest eventually :)

#136 the crescent as a clock

Don't even think about the rankings right now, Scott. Seriously. We're gonna end up with 5 designers and tweak stuff. Then we'll pitch it to the client. Yours rock. You know that.

Okay, Scott...
IT'S TOP 5 DESIGNER TIME!
Please submit your best 3-5 text treatments and your best 3-5 color suggestions for #116.
Have fun!
~Geoff

#147

The layout is suitable for embroidery on Golf Shirts, and Ball Caps, silkscreen on any substrait

#148

Very suitable for embroider on golf Shirts Ball Caps ( my logo is embroidered on ball caps positioned on the left front panel (over the heart)...I never recommend embroidering over the front seam if it's single front panel no problem...though I much prefer the left panel

Also very suitable for all other print requirements.

#148
this is okay not my fav.

You'll notice I've removed the crescent I feel it just a better design without it, but I will post the original shortly. Plus the tail is shorten a wee bit more as well

if you have preference for a font choice please let me know there are literally 10,000 of fonts to chose from

colours to follow

#153

crescent add and re-sized the original made the overall look top heavy..beside the crescent is not the focal point the tail is.

#160

colour option 1

Looking good, Scott.
Will you please try this color combination?
PMS 435 U and PMS 407 U or 435 U
Thanks,
~Geoff

I chose a purple tone for compassion and passion, compassion for the great lengths the town of kiawah to preserve it natural heritage from monitoring Leather backs to the Grey Fox and others as well as restricting access to areas of critical importance.

Passion for well the love of golf of course no pun intended...hmmm I just greated a new tag line

"The love of Golf...of Course"

"

#181

Pantone 435U and 207U

#182

PMS 435 u and grey PMS 7543u

Looks cool. But, I wrote it wrong.
I meant: 325U and either 407U or 435U.
Sorry.
Thanks,
~G

just had to add the new tagline lol

Hey, Scott -- do you have something else ready to submit?
I'll slide you back up in the top 5 and let you upload.
Let me know, bro.
~G

Put you back up there, anyway -- just in case you've got something.
Peace,
~G

#261 #262

I just thought of this additional hidden symbology...think of it as a dolphin/whlte dive same as hoe-in-one

Nice! Throw some type and color on that thing : )
Thanks, Scott. You always step it up.

#263, #264 #265

PMS 435 u and PMS 207 u as previously requested

#265 the crescent was flipped the wrong way... #266 corrected with alternative coloring...

with thee 3/4 view of the tail it also seems as if it's flipping the crescent/ golf ball

#267 tail going into the crescent...think hole in one

#257 -- too much like sushi. :-P

If you want to offer any other tweaks or color options, go for it, brother Scott.
Also -- can you enter a version of just the type treatment from #160?
(Like heru did with #195.)
Thanks : )
~G

actually I cannot do what heru has done...that is his design direction.

No, no! I meant, the way he just entered his type without the icon. You did it absolutely correctly. : ) Thanks!

check out the subtle font work #289 #290 #291 #292 #293

Ive combined the letter E and R

#266 -- thought you might want to try your type treatment on this one.
Maybe some color options, too.
~G

uploaded, though I am not liking these colour options

Look good to me. Only submit the ones you're happy with, bro : )

you NI'd my stacked text version these are my favs lol

I did? Which ones were they? Were they like #148?
Re-submit, please. I'll look again...
~Geoff

#148 was the only one I though I did more

aah never mind the more I look at the stacked version I don't like it

Okay, bro. I think your submissions look great!
~G

#337 using the stylized letter 'r" from #291 to subdivide the tail

Yeah, yeah -- digging it! I think you might need the wave indication at the bottom, like in #147 -- a single one that is semi-connected and not as wide as the one in #147. Make sense?

#350 and #351 -- are the crescent and wave necessary? Your honest opinion, please.
I say add text to #337 and #350 and let's look at 'em.
~G

no cresent no wave to many elements

#356 and #357 are my absolute Fav! not only does it is more balanced it looks great, plus the tail is a unique stand alone mark

Number 1 now. Just for you : )
