I'd say this falls under the category of looking wrong. It doesn't really work. I might have got it totally wrong anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teale's 'tache Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Been having a play around with a few different shield shapes, trying to work in all of the aspects that seem to be wanted in the survey... It's difficult to put all of these different components together without it becoming too busy, and then shields have been used on crests for ages, so creating a shield shape that is unique but obviously a shield is also difficult. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of these are as good as your original designs. You’re right about the business though, we seem to be trying to cram too much in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted October 17, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted October 17, 2023 I’ll narrow it down further, I think the top centre is the best one there. The lion looks like it’s doing headers with the star though. If the star was above the shield maybe. However, I’m fairly confident the shape of the shield will be more like the centre one in the bottom row. More like what we’ve had before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we have the star in between Aston Villa ? ASTON * VILLA. Maybe it will look less busy doing it this way. If you did this on the middle left design then the top of the shield would be a straight line and look more uniform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 I've just realized no one actually gives a damn what it looks like as long as it isn't totally hideous, they think they do, but a week or so after it's released it will be largely forgotten about and will be something that's just there. Anything that endures over time sacrifices its ability to make an impression. Anything that constitutes the walls of our life, the backdrop of our consciousness, so to speak, forfeits its capacity to play a role in that consciousness. A constant, bothersome sound becomes inaudible after several hours.

Still love the idea of a diamond shape, but think it'll be a more traditional shield design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Paddywhack Posted October 18, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 18, 2023 The thing about the new crest is that there's no need to worry if you don't like it, there'll be a new one for the 2025/26 season anyway. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like a few of those, but the more I look, the more I think the star is disturbing our designs. I like the sharper shield and gaslamp variants, and the diamond 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
