- I was so facinated with Roy's Fortuna fish I tried a similar concept. Just for fun. Roy's Tuna Fish is a classic, thanks for your inspiration Roy.

THEArtistT said:It is gorgeous. I see you've done several snake logos (including an odd toad). Herpetologist maybe?
Nov. 19 '08
struve said:the shading is top notch--really leaps off the screen. i like the type as well and its in perfect proportion to the mark
Nov. 19 '08
logomotive said:^ LOL yeah sounds kind of bad, learned something new today the word "Herpetologist". Thanksssssssss guys glad you like ribb..it!

joder said:Yup negitive space is a often overlooked tool in the tool box. Love the mate-up of the mark to the shape of the "S" too.

jonvic said:Incredible :) I must say at first I miss judged you :p The first thing I saw from you was your homepage, your work is something else.
what's with that negative space your talking about? Can't see it(off course).
Jan. 29 '09
jonvic said:Ok, I see, it's a nice detail :)
I love it but there's something bugging me...
...maybe it's envy :p

PenaltyKillah said:A very good throwback to the nineties. Will be one of those timeless logos that will stick with a company for decades. Congratulations!

janzabransky said:This is tip of the iceberg of logo design. One of my top favorites of all time. I am fascinated watching this. Its still like a bath for my eyes :-)

logomotive said:Thanks guys, but I'm so sorry to inform you but this is sooooo fake. I made it up. My acrylic paintings are also made up and I will have to tell my clients both who want to buy my paintings and or logos that they are fake and not for real. These are just optical illusions a figment of your imagination. If I had a REAl client not sure I can be creative enough to solve your problem. Sorry but this is just fake stuff.

logomotive said:^THAT is about the rudest thing I have seen done. AT least give some background or link on this design. You take a full space image yet give no background. WHERE did this come from?, who did it come from?, and when did they do it. While this is a bit different not sure that's suppose to be a snake or what but please have a little courtesy when posting. RUDE.

barryconvex said:"Where" is an easy question: http://www.logomaid.com/detail.php?uid=8612
(you simply view the image properties), I don´t know about the others.

epsilon said:Ah .. Logomaid .. I see they haven't learnt much from their Simple Bits f*ckup

fishinapond said:@logomotive- first of all, I wasn't disrespecting you with my previous post. I was going to leave a note to inform you of what I found on the web but I had to step away from my pc really quick last night. I wasn't insinuating that you ripped this design. Actually I meant to say that YOU got ripped. Relax baby...you're still THE logo-branding god:-)
Aug. 02 '09
logomotive said:fishinapond, Ok but just so you understand where I'm coming from. This particular design was blantantly ripped and tried being sold on crowdspring as a winning entry, I have battled this for a few months. Hey if someone did something like this concept prior to me I'm the first to admit and remove and it has happened before.
Aug. 25 '09
logomotive said:THANKS!! Sandhya. I could make some good money on this one with a good lawyer.

j-CAZ said:Duuuuuuuude, Sangam Cinemas? Its not even a design that looks "close" and is an obvious ripoff; this is a verbatim copy. Sorry to see this dude, I guess it comes with being one of the greats. I'd start cinema face punching, lol. They'd be like, "oww my faaaace, here's ur logo back sorry".
Aug. 25 '09
logomotive said:What does this have to do with Cinemas anyhow? Geez! Pay up people and you can have it.

Brandsimplicity said:Total rip off Mike, they did'nt even bother to change it. So wish we could gather a posse and do some linchin's

lundeja said:Have you contacted them already or do I have to phone my Sicilian connections?
Aug. 27 '09
logomotive said:@Jared, yes on the first question. And perhaps on the second :) No response so far and I'm a very impatient person.
Aug. 27 '09
SANDHYA said:The design agency that Sangam hired probably ripped it from here is what I hear.
Aug. 27 '09
logomotive said:Sandhya, Well they have not responded, so I might have to do some digging here. Thanks.

joder said:Ssssssssssssmoken'. When done right, gradents can really pop. I like the neg. space too. How did you do the yellowish hi-lights? I'd like to see a close-up of the snake if possible :).
