OK! V35 CLUB LOGO RE-DESIGN

Reason:

1. lol we stuffed up, well sort of. The first plan was having a 350GT logo then modifying it to suit all the sedan variants and the new 370gt, But this lead to the fact that there will now be a 200,250,300,250,370gt clubs!...too many representing the same club. It gets real confusing that way.

So here is the new plan:

1. Logo should be designed to cater for all Varients with no variation in the logo design.

2. if the logo ends up being printed then its basically a long rectangle,so design with the emphasis on reducing the height so it doesn't look like an advert!

3. it follows a theme with the car, e.g the colours, Grey and red.and most importantly its for a V35 not 'skylines' in gen.

oh and come on, we need more people making logos!!!

here's a rough guide:

  • agree on a name. it has to represent everyone equally, and be expandable in the future. That's why I named this section the V-Series Skyline section and not the 350GT section.
  • make a logo that's not fancy, but has something unique to it, and is easily associated with the brand/model you're representing
  • make sure the logo looks good on a black background as well as a white background
  • make sure that the logo is simple enough to hand trace if needed (this comes into effect when you have a club sticker run, simple design = simple vinyl cutups)
  • make sure the logo is structured in such a way so it draws attention from the text in it. cos when you have a sticker on the back of your car you don't want people reading the text before seeing the logo.
  • Keep cursive and flourish fonts to a minimum. just cos you can read that fancy french flowy writing doesn't mean every one else can.
  • Stick to as few colours as you can. this means no gradients, no fades and no shadows. 2 to 4 colours is best.

ok, here the lines were inspired from the nismo colours, placed at angles to give it the 'faster' look and just played around with the position of the lines.....not the best effort but its a starter.

you seem to like those dots

lol i think it looks cool...plus have you thought that if its printed on a clear background, there will be alot of space, so even thou its big it wont look big but it wont be hard to read...but yeh, just a thought.

i just printed a 350gt sticker logo and found out you can't print white on a clear sticker (well the people who are doing it for me can't) we can have white writing if we have a white sticker (NO WAY) so we can change the colour of the "club australia" or make it more blocky so it can be cut out.

I so didn't see this coming.
