makers mark help (again!)

[Dreadhead]

thanks for the effort sparrowhawk thats nice n neat. however the first image i put up is just a textured version of the original which is a basic outline like that one you drew. and as iv said previously its too detailed to fit onto a 2 pence peice. i will carve it into large projects but for small things i need a small basic mark that wont detract from the original work. i think Ruud is on the right track as that hoof with the letters can be made very small and still keep its detail

How about summut completely different - like a mjolnir?

 

[Dreadhead]

im open to all ideas i dont tend to use the mjolnir as much as i always go for symbols of Odin as my name ties in with them better. but i do like simple mjolnirs. not sure how i would combine a mjolnir with something that represents my goatyness tis a tricky one ill leave it up to the designers

One eyed goat styled Mjolnir?

i like that but im not overly sure. usually anything with spirals gets me right away but i think curly horns look more like a ram i don't know! im sure it was you who came up with the best design last time so you know how fussy i can be! i feel cheeky asking for designs then shooting them down

I've run out of lunch hour for amends

 

[Dreadhead]

quit your job. you work for me now

 

[mountainm]

I thought this was pretty cool

pity I didn't make it.

 

[Dreadhead]

Yeah that is smart i like it. im not going to tamper with copyright though!

I think we can come up with something similar and better but legal

 

[Dreadhead]

we? i cant even draw stickmen all i can do is shout and fuss at those more talented than I and hope i get what i want like a spoiled 16 yr old essex girl

If it was me I'd want something really simple for a signature and stick to your more complicated design as a trademark. The hard part is making them work together. I like the idea of a runic goat made up of the H G letters though. I'm not so good with runes but something like this...

Liking that - shows potential.

 

[Dreadhead]

Yeah DaveO thats a good idea! will have to explore that more

 

[daveO]

How small is it going to be? There's loads of ways to play about with that in style and proportion but if it will be tiny then the less detail the better I imagine.

 

[Dreadhead]

it will have to fit inside a 2 pence piece so i can use it on smaller projects

 

[crosslandkelly]

How about simple initials in a vague goats head shape.


maybe something like this....

Your welcome.

 

[daveO]

I think I got carried away here a bit I was trying to see if it would make a good circular mark, maybe something you could work into the eye spiral of your other trademark.
