UPDATE NOTES:
Jan 18th 2018 - Added new "Don by Law" graphics (he will fully reveal himself once someone activates Don by Law >:) <example image)
Feb 2nd 2018 - Changed the small variant of the Gorgeous Gorillas Logo ( NEW / OLD ), also slight color changes in the main logo
Feb 4th 2018 - Remade the small variant of the Gorgeous Gorillas logo completely... was kinda bland before ^ (Ver 2.0)
Feb 23rd 2018 - Made "Winner Banners" for multi wins (Grouse+Gorillas / Gorillas+Eagle / Grouse+Eagle / Everyone Wins)
May 4th 2018 - Combined the detailed score graphic with the main score board, to streamline
May 18th 2018 - Reformatted the "Quotes of the Week" to be Bold-Italic
June 8th 2018 - New Scoreboard Layout for 4+1 Teams. new "Winner Banner" for "The Switcher Snake"
June 8th 2018 - New Logo for Kyle's team, which is now called "Droopy Eagles" (plural instead of singular). "The Switcher Snake" changed to "The Switcher Snakes" (again plural instead of singular)
August 31st 2018 - Reformatted some things to reduce the size of the first post
-
I approve of this elegant thread!
-
This is so good.
-
Sweet mercy you are talented. Hot damn. Great work! And thank you for all the future work every week!
-
stop it you guys 😊 I'm blushing
-
@kevboard you're awesome.
-
so... maybe having bosman and jones split up wasn't that bad of an idea xD ... damn... only 5 bets in and the Gorillas are already in last.
Kyle and Jones are just too good it seems.SOMEWHERE IN AN ALTERNATE UNIVERSE WHERE THE RED EAGLES STILL EXISTED:
-
This post is deleted!
-
just to be save, in the case that the Golden Vultures ever score, I made a team logo for them... it's nothing special and I put way less work into it than I did with the other ones xD but it will do the job should the day come
-
This is so cool dude, work very much appreciated!
-
I actually think The Golden Vultures have the coolest logo, which feels right
-
@bosman said in Easy Allies Podcast --SEASON 3-- Score Tracker (Updates every Friday):
I actually think The Golden Vultures have the coolest logo, which feels right
well, it's hard not to make a Vulture look cool in some way :D
a droopy eagle, now that was a challenge let me tell you... xD
-
new team, new layout:
that's the easy part done :)
EDIT:
now with new animation
-
I think I'm done (as long as my perfectionism doesn't get a hold of me and makes me redo this dozens of times over the next few days xD)
so obviously the logo is an obvious Switch Nintendo Switch pun, with the 2 JoyCon colours in there. BUT it also has a heart-like shape! ♥ :)
(doing one involving a broadcast switcher was just too out there imo xD so another "switch" reference was needed)Ian said I shouldn't make it too intricate so I stuck with the very first idea I had for it and polished it up as best as I could. I also reused a font I already made (though I had to make multiple new letters that I previously didn't make since I didn't need them 'till now, so the S,W and G are new, the others I already made/were used here)
-
looks cool, my only thought is that it's Switcher Snakes on the podcast (and it should probably be Switcher Snake as Kyle and Jones are likewise singular)
-
that's something I was wondering too, why plural?
ok, changing it to singular it is :)
EDIT:
Switcher + Singular :)
EDIT2:
as I said... no way I wouldn't come back to it and touch some stuff up -_- it's a gift, and a curse -Monk
LINKaltered the "a", did a new version of the small icon variation (just shrinking the big one looks awful, so a separate version is needed) and the "the" was lowered down to replace the line basically
-
So here is the actual Final version of the Snakes logo
AND, Kyle wanted to be a cooperation of Droopy Eales... so here is an update to his logo
the thing is, the whole design was painstakingly measured to have a semi-symmetrical silhouette, which means I basically had no choice but to do what I did there... if I didn't want to redo a huge chunk of the logo that is :D
-
As soon as I heard it, I knew that would be the Quote of the Week this time. :)
