No, I mean the highlights and some cuts in the clouds are not the same as the background. Is that intentional? no biggie hardly noticeable. just looking at your fine work.

...helps you work rest and play. Showing you're age there Nav %3B)**Maybe I should make the beet fatter so people don't think it's a CARROT?

onesummer Jan. 03 '09

one of my favorites on here. can't believe it wasn't picked. i saw a rocket first, then the veggie. the red kept me thinking beet and not carrot.i think it's fine the way it is.

perfect work! very nice!

Reply
firebrand Jan. 03 '09

Thanks all!**Paul, thanks mate. Good to see you around again. Agricultural clients tend to be quite particular about the exact proportions of their end product - so they tend to shy away from showing the actual vegetable, cereal etc.

So clever! I hate it when clients go for the most obvious one

Reply
firebrand Jun. 02 '09

Thanks wannabe. Agricultural clients are quite particular about the exact proportions of their crop - so they didn't want to show the actual vegetable in the logo

Reply
alldesign Jun. 22 '09

Wow, that's amazing! You're quite creative. Love the shading on the beet itself.

Yeah, this was one of the first logos I saw here the first time I visiited logopond. I remember being amazed by it then and I am again seeing it now. This is fantastic - one sweet sugar beet.

Thanks !mude and Momentum. Now it's my most floated logo. :D

Boy, I sure do sweat this logo (and the rest of your work, for that matter). I've seen it all over the place. Love it. Nice work.

Look like a carrot!

Supamario May. 24 '16

thought this looked familiar, i cant comment on the poster itsef since they blocked comments but this one is the original for sure, the one recently added seems like a blantant copy

Reply
firebrand May. 25 '16

Thanks Mario, do you have a link?

Reply
firebrand May. 25 '16

Thanks, I don't have an issue with this one. There's plenty of veg rockets in the universe now!

Reply
secondeight May. 25 '16

lol , you're right but i can't believe that this logo is still unused :(

Reply
firebrand May. 25 '16

Thanks, client went for the planet Mars in the end because a cartoon representation of the vegetable was deemed inappropriate.

On that note, designers shouldn't listen to people who say you can't show unused or 'practice' work in your portfolios as it can still attract potential clients.

Reply
Supamario May. 25 '16

true, i still think designers should do more research when creating logos for their clients. The objective of a logo or design in brand identity is to differentiate, i guess because it went unused he/she though it was ok.

Reply
firebrand May. 25 '16

Sure. Just naivety I guess.

Reply
atomicvibe May. 26 '16

Roy, I was coming in here to make the same observation as Mario about that carrot/rocket logo recently added to the Gallery. Buuuut... guess you already dealt with that, soooo...

(still love this one, although I gather it's supposed to be more of a beet than a carrot)

firebrand May. 27 '16

Thanks Jon, I posted a slightly better balanced version of this on instagram.
