OK guys, the name is official.

The KEYSTONE DIECAST CARNIVAL. It will be held in Lancaster County in the middle of April.

We could use a couple more logo suggestions. I will be partial to mine unless of course you guys can sway me otherwise. LOL

Please try to design using only 2 colors (plus car color).

We will most likely get 2 different castings. One for the day time event and one for the evening. Try to make them either the same or the same feel. The evening car will most likely be black. More than likely with flames as well.


Well, here are my 2 rough drafts. I will probably make a font change and get a better buggy design but the rest will probably stay the same accept for maybe changing the colors. All sorts of color combos look good.

Please submit your own ideas or let me know what I could maybe do to make my design even better.

THANKS!

I like the logo, and I agree, it looks sick in BWF.

I gave it a shot though... its similar to your with the tent and all.

Nice design Andrew. The main problem with it is that I am trying to keep costs down by keeping the logo to 2 colors. Yours has 4 and I think if it were changed to 2 it would not look as good.

Chris, I looked into the font you suggested. I am a little gun shy using fonts with little flairs or things like that coming off the font. The flame font that I used on the JJ car we had done did not come out as expected and I want to avoid a repeat of that.

Here is another look at the daytime logo with a color tweak and a new font. The final color scheme would be made once we decide on the car and its color.
