Arrow Preliminary MDRCC logo

Hello everyone,
I have been working on our logo for the last couple of days. THIS IS BY NO MEANS THE FINAL PRODUCT. i still need to get the tires right and the wheels added. I am having problems with the tire angles and need help. If someone could please send me pictures of their Losi Claws at various angles so that I can get this thing finished up.(jcallis87@yahoo.com) PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK.(whether it good or bad) I need everyone's opinion on this, so dont just look and not say anything please.

Thanks,
Justin

I can't view photobucket from work, and keep forgetting when I get home.

okay.....I wans't sure how to explain it, but here's what I had imagined....picture this, if you will......

Kind of a 3/4 view from side / rear arranged like your watching a crawler climb an obstacle, only rather than a Jeep / truck body, its a crab with our name team logo across its back and an RC antenna sticking out of the shell and the crawler wheels / tires at the 4 corners just as they would be for a vehicle - only somehow drawn at the ends of legs....there probably ought to be a bit of the obstacle showing to make it clear what this is all about.
I hope this helps!

I was just looking through flikr for crab pictures and found this guy. He looks like an over built bodybuilder.

I had something like DNA's logo in mind. Big tire with crab claws coming out of it chomping on other club logos and in general kicking @ss.

Hellofa lot better than anything I could have scribbled down. The detail on that crab is pretty slick. For a logo though, i'm thinkin as basic as possible. Maybe we could have these turned into decals or something, so basic is good. I was thinking a silouete of a crab from the top, with tires at all 4 corners, and a MD in the middle of the shell.... Very basic.

yeah, That's nearly exaclty what I had in mind......I only figured put the name on the shell so it will work easily even as a sort of silhouette
type of decal that can be made in just one color -- that'll keep it cheap.

something like this:

Only larger tires, wheelbase, and have it articulating up a rock.

Actually, something like this would be cool, if the body was a sideview of a losi claw, with MDRCC on it. It would be very easy to make a diecut sticker

Something like this, but redraw the tire instead of it being a real one. It would be extremely easy to transfer to vinyl, and would still be distinguishable if it was one solid color.

Probably have to change the crab, as it's a random google image, and I don't know about the rights to the artwork.

Just the way that Marlin logo looks with a bit of the rocks around it...could be done from any angle it takes to make it easy to see the tires and the crab body.....I guess I was thinking a 4/3 rear view to see the lettering on the shell, but that would matter if the letting is more wraped around the outside of the picture.


Now the thing Cronus picked out would work, too ----
Center of the shell is a Rock Claw tire with our lettering on the sidewall and the crab arms coming out around the outside of the tire.
