XERXES & RA (feedBack wanted)

category: general [glöplog]
lord graga, you have no idea how much we have been discussing the grey part.. is it right, is it wrong? does it look cool, does it not? :) so i feel your pain here.... RA thought it was cool with grey, and who am i to disagree with that. i think it highlights the retro style a lot - which in this case i hope is a good thing. it will be interesting to see how the logo works once we get it in context (like puryx said).

cheers and thanks again everyone. the feedback is very valuable :)


see you all at BP! i hope they have a bar serving ONLY rum&coke - that would rock!

hay,
thanks for your coments, i'm reading all and will use the critics to improve next creations.
some details a bit 'creamy' into the grey part is gonna be fixed with more dark colors, to fit a bit more. i believe that grey increase the ambient style , i tried with red and yellow but xerxes feeled that will be too much disco.
this logo was based on 2d double x structure like XerXes name,
its mostly an icon more than a logo.
btw, this is the original size.

thanks again

I like the gray. Perhaps it could have more contrast or perhaps look more shiney, because it might look a bit flat. On the other hand I think that it has own effect again.

At the bottom: earth colours. It already has green growing from roots, through the purple of sunrise, into a blue sky, with the sun central..

Otherwise, of course rules. :)

Now thats a touch of class, evoking a curiosity in me to look at it more, beautiful, and what hempest said also :)

Imbusy, you little lamer. That´s not proper feedback.

For what it's worth, I love the grey part. Unlike imbusy, I'd love to wear a t-shirt with this design. Scene-mech FTW!

Probably too much of oldschool spirit, no connection to the present. And I don't like the color scheme. But it's just me, someone must dislike it.

what havoc says.. however for nondemosceners i guess it stands out compared to yeh average company identity crap as tempest already pointed out.
Either that or you guys are just blind :)
I like the harmony of the shapes inside. - the way the proportions of the elements interacts. Perfect on its own, but could give something radically different once integrated on a web page with other elements around. the integration will give the direction.

I get the ambient vibe, but somehow I'm not feeling the electronica.

To my eyes the swirls look organic/atmospheric like blades of grass or smoke which gives the feel of ambience, and the shape is right for the name, but I don't see any part that conveys electronica.

Whether this is important or not is up to you, it's still a cool logo.

hello insectecutor, as you can see of course it's important for me.
i would like to know about how to create music style feeling.

I think you could try to emphasise the crystal look a bit more, which would give it some more depth and make it pop. Perhaps you could achieve this by refraction and/or subtly lightening up some areas to give structure.

solid logo and awaiting the next lemon. demo ;)

Sorry, but TBH, i like the old xerxes logo more than this one. :\
Ra made this? typical an abstract logo which i dont see what its supposed too be :P

great logo, stop whining...

Tons of logos have an image of something or some abstract shape which represents something, and the text next to it. Famous example: kewlers.

I think this one works like that in a good way.. it has enough 'identity' to be remembered, and stand out (although not so much perhaps as a simple 'corporate' style one) but it has a ton of depth and detail to hold your attention too (which corporate ones never do).
