I refined FixedFun's mascot design for Kbin. Thoughts? Feedback? (More pics/alts in post!)
(media.kbin.social)
I really loved @FixedFun 's idea for the kbin mascot, so I decided to refine it a bit and make some color alternatives. All credit to them for this wonderful idea! I merely refined it. Note, the circles beside the logo are just a color pallete swatch, not actually meant to be apart of the logo.
Here is some alternatives as well as a phone screen mockup
Here is Fun's next to mine
As the kbird, maybe his name could be Ben, or Bin, or Binny the bird? Binjamin is pretty hilarious
details: font is poppins. program is adobe illustrator.
UPDATE: Thoughts on this one?
though it does stand out more, i felt like adding a stroke makes it look more unrelated and pasted on if that makes sense? like someone took a random bird icon and threw it on a gradient bg. so i wanted it to feel a little bit more integrated. i dont mind the stroke as much as i thought upon seeing your version, tho. i added a stroke to mine just to see and i dont think its too bad
what do you think about this? i tried to get rid of the parallel lines
I definitely like the "toot" of noise and the gradient stroke. On the other hand the top and bottom left corners feel a bit empty as there's a lot of stuff going on at the right mid section of the logo.
I also tried out a rounded base to avoid the parallel lines between the bottom of the base and the mascot itself, which are a lot more obvious with the border in place.
