why you deleted the other istead of editing it?
anyway, it's like type and the mark is great

firebrand said on Aug. 17 '08

The type goes with the icon really well. The dog's chops look a bit weird tho.

itsgareth said on Aug. 17 '08

Hmmm. How do you mean roy? I will admit I'm not 100% happy with it.

firebrand said on Aug. 17 '08

I don't know if it's too bulbous on the right or whether the jowls sag too much. The prominent legs could be extended slightly to improve the perpective IMO. Other than that I love the style of this, Gareth :)

itsgareth said on Aug. 17 '08

Cheers mate very valid points. I may look into after the United game ;)

babo said on Aug. 17 '08

I think the mouth problem could be solved by making the w look more like the one in the type.

itsgareth said on Aug. 17 '08

I'll give that a try babo, I just dont want it to look like he's got a butface, you know?

I've extended the legs Roy, excellent call. Still gotta sort the mouth though, hmmm

@babo: I don't really have a solution, but I'm not sure your suggestion would work. If he did, the dog may well turn into a beaver or bugs bunny type character.

By the way, excellent concept gareth!

itsgareth said on Aug. 18 '08

Many thanks, but in my eyes it's still not finished!

pixelcraft said on Aug. 18 '08

really nice logo. if you are looking for something else to do with it, why not make it side-on , only have 1 ear, and 1 'mouth part'

itsgareth said on Aug. 18 '08

Hey pixelcraft, thanks for the suggestion. The main reason I want it face on i to incorporate the 'w' in there. I'm working on it as we speak so should have an update later on today.

itsgareth said on Aug. 18 '08

updated, thoughts anyone??

logomotive said on Aug. 18 '08

maybe give the front part (the chest) a slight arch or curve.

nido said on Aug. 18 '08

the fact that both back legs (i mean legs furthest from us) on this are on the inside throws the whole perspective off.. if the hind back leg is on the inside then the front back leg should be on the outside.. at the moment this mutt is flexing in an awkward way!.. you need to bring the front front leg in till it aligns with the middle of the face & switch the front back leg to the outside.. so its like a revers L..

itsgareth said on Aug. 18 '08

nido..you ave unlocked the mystery of this logo that has been making me feel completely happy with this logo. Thank you. Luckily I have a few days before I show this to the client so I can hopefully sort it out in time. Mikee, I'll give that a try too, I think it will make the dog look more "proud". Just goes to show that a very strong knowledge of anatomy and the figure is one of the foundations of design, something which I need to brush up on me thinks.

itsgareth said on Aug. 18 '08

grrr...that "making" should be "stopping". It's late.
