it's a nice illustration. A little large and detailed for a "general" use type of logo but very workable.
If you think of a name for it (at least for now) I'd use the circle as an area to showcase the 1st letter of the company perhaps. Like DragonFuture or something, use the D.

You should first redraw it in Illustrator. make it black and white then create a color version. I'm thinking Dark reds or greens would work well with it. and the globe thing have it appear transparent.

Yes, as Coy had mentioned, recreating it in Illustrator may allow you go in a few different directions that you hadn't thought. I have to admit, it is an unusual way to go about creating a logo. Usually you have the name first and then move forward. However, this is a cool way to think/do things in a different way!

I think it's a little too detailed for being a logo, remember to keep a logo simple in order to make it more memorable. I love the idea, maybe for an illustration or something like that, let us know when the final design is ready

i guess that should be a kind of a sport logo, right?
is that's the case, i would rather put the ball in dragon's claws.
this way, head looks a bit strange a not effective as it could be.

If you wanted to go w/ a sports image then you could turn the orb/ball into that sports ball type.. like football, soccerball, baseball or whatever.

Could you be more specific please. that statement doesn't assist or help the designer out at all..

If you are going to post something in this critique area make it productive in someway..

What is it that makes it look "weerd" to you?
What do you think can be changed to make it less "weerd"?

**NinjaPandaK** · 10-16-2009 05:26 AM

idk about the sports theme..hmm.. a dragon isnt much of a sports icon, and the way ive drawn this.. idk lol but it doesnt hurt to try i guess, so ill try a few sport themed ones when i get some time to draw

i havent had much time to draw lately

lol

and yeah lol how does ir look weerd? lo

right now - im feeling your logo - to be like a powerful - gameLogo - or something around that line ... something that involves - Interactive Entertainment ---

-- the intro of that logo - could be the whole drawing falling hard and fast into a pile of sand - and then it establishes itself there - and then - changes its color to the Logos' final color ... something like that ---

-- or, an intro like a "moon-phase" where-in the ball/orb/circle starts-out as nothing then transforms itself to the whole moon then the camera view zoomsOut revealing that the orb/ball/circle is actually held by that dragon .. the colorScheme for these would be something that depicts the moonlight - glowish-blueish-whitish --- the dragaon can be redBlood - or goldish - or even blueish-whitish ....

-- none the less - nice drawing!

**Artistport** · 10-16-2009 08:54 AM

I would try refining the drawing and also making the drawing bilateral for design purposes

**KHDZN** · 10-17-2009 06:00 AM

I love the illustration. Redrawing in Illustrator will be a fun challenge—can't wait to see how it progresses.

**rust3dboy** · 10-27-2009 10:18 PM

If you want to use this as a logo... keep in mind that the logo should be clear on black and white color and while using it in large and small scale artworks...
overall... great sketch !
keep it up...

**NinjaPandaK** · 10-28-2009 04:48 PM

im liking the idea about using it for a game or as part of a game intro ^^
like a quick flash and zoom into the ball maybe.. lol

i cant wait to work on these idea's everyone has suggested when my exams are over

im excited ^^ haha

The drawing is very good! However I think it's a little too detailed for a logo....Logo's are supposed to be simple. I would draw it in illustrator.

**jmillgraphics** · 12-01-2009 11:17 PM

Like what everyone else is saying, too much detail. I would try and do some varied lines for it in illustrator. Different thicknesses would work nice. The eyes and the ball should have the same look to them as well. A nice shiny coating, but the same color. If you want any help let me know ;P

**designedbylele** · 12-02-2009 09:23 AM

To make a logo you first need a clear statement u wish to communicate.
But your draft could get a nice illustration!

**godzine** · 12-09-2009 03:14 PM

i like it, illustrator will give you a lot of options in the coloring process
