Been pondering of asking folks for lending their strength in making a logo for our humble Hogosha Association, which has been lacking one since its creation.
I have come up with some simple guidelines for prospective creators:
--------------
HA logo.
Required include:
«HA» or «Hogosha Association» written on it.
Optional include:
保護者 組合 (Hogosha Kumiai) in Kanji present
A mikoshi (みこし or 神輿 = portable shrine) silhouette, or a Torii gate silhouette.
The rest of the design is up to the maker. No requirements about color palette, as long as it isn't too similar with other factions active.
---------------
I would like to hear about and see any proposals you might make. As for the matter of payment, I would like to listen to your prices, as I don't know well how much these works usually go for.
I'll try to have one of the logos picked up as soon as we have a selection of two or more.
@Toris - It is an interesting design. However, since it's in a golden color (too similar with many color patterns of faction logos), and has been recently employed in another project, I'm afraid I cannot accept that logo.
@Protégé - You took the suggestion literally and added the Torii silhouette, while forgetting the necessary elements that should be included on the logo.
Both are invited to fix/retry with a new sample. Still open for anyone who is willing to give it a try. Can include more elements than those described on the op.
@NoMe - of the 2 you presented, I would say the first version is better. The dust/smoke effect is not good for the overall image.
@Devil - Very good those designs. If I had to choose, I would say v2 for the non blurry version. Unfortunately, both our partners in faction (Black Dragon Society) and our enemies (Blood Dragons) already use the dragon motif. I say we already have too many dragons in this house. You do well to keep the lettering, it's very good.
To all - I've decided to make a final decision by the end of Sunday, as most people will have time to present or perfect their designs. I will try to keep providing feedback on each of the submissions.
