Logan D. Hurricanes Posted August 9, 2014 Report Share Posted August 9, 2014 I'm designing a new costume for my character, The Foreman. I'm creating a logo, and I need some help deciding on which one to use. The character is a precognitive duplicator that creates up to three alternates. Here are the two I'm considering. The first I created, and the second I stole off of a Fantastic Four redesign somebody did. Waddya think? Comments? Questions? Concerns? Queries? Suggestions are also welcome, though not so alliterative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Liaden Posted August 9, 2014 Report Share Posted August 9, 2014 Between these two I would have to go with the first one, because the second reminds me uncomfortably of a wannabe-swastika. I would also suggest changing the spelling of the character's name to "Fourman." Anyone reading it will get the pun, but I'm not sure "Foreman" would be as obvious.

Burrito Boy Posted August 9, 2014 Report Share Posted August 9, 2014 I really like them both but I voted for A since four Fs are better than one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny you say that, because when I created A I turned 2 of the Fs and accidentally created a Swastika. That was a head desk moment. And the pun is very subtle, yes, but it's to amuse the player more than the character Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan D. Hurricanes Posted August 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 I thought there was to be three options I only counted two Well, there was a third, which is his current logo. I decided it just wasn't working for me, though, so I need something new. In fact, his entire look is changing. His first look was inspired by Guy Gardner, but now he's more inspired by Gravity. This is pretty cool, thanks. It really has the elegance of simplicity I like. I'll take this into consideration, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

薔薇語 Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 The first one seemed the best of the two because the second one does look very close to a swastika. Another options (although I guess it is too late) is to just have four tilted "4"s in a circle / box. They would create a diamond shape with the opposing corners being linked. If you wanted to really get the F icon in there, you could also slip an F into the dead space and have them slightly rotated. La Rose.

Lord Liaden Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 Mr. Log, IMHO the logo you picked works best with the costume design and color scheme you chose, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DusterBoy Posted September 3, 2014 Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 Not a fan of either, to be honest. And, although the swastika is an ancient Aryan solar symbol of good luck, coming from the root Sanskrit, meaning "it is well", good luck trying to get away with wearing one today, or trying to explain its true origins before they slam you a cell and label you a Nazi.
