burchy Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 For me our lion is rubbish and it needs an overhaul (where's Chip Foose when you need him) so I had a blast at trying to make him a bit more aggressive and lion esque 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted May 4 Moderator Share Posted May 4 With our last home game nine days away, I wonder if the club might take the opportunity to launch things then If we make the final, then I guess there's a good reason to delay a little and we might wait until contracts end with existing suppliers anyway and launch in July, but I guess there is a chance we could go on the 13th in some way.

DakotaVilla Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 They are blatantly waiting until champions league qualification is confirmed to try to minimize the inevitable shitstorm that will follow. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they got cold feet over the round badge they must surely know that sentiment to the new drop shadow thing is even more negative. Maybe they will decide it is a one season wonder for the 150th (like they decided the round one was a one season wonder) and go nick to the drawing board again? Clutching at straws now I know but the drop shadow thing is hideous Edited May 4 by Captain_Townsend 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good work. however, it’s too aggressive. Villa is not an aggressive club. We are an old club, a founding club. We are regal, noble and full of pride. more akin to Richard the lion heart than X-men’s Sabretooth Edited May 4 by CarryOnVilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Willard Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 Claret back ground and gold lion with blue outline and writing is just perfect. We somehow are messing up the simplest thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jas10 Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 Old news but… if it’s a choice between this (although I’d prefer darker detailing/contrast on the lion) and the plain yellow drop shadow shit… then this will have to do Don’t think we’re going to get anything like what we want… 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like a small cat face attached to a lions main and he has short, fat arms The round badge lion and/or newer fierce iteration lion is fine. If it's the overall theme we don't like I'd even consider a fierce lion head but that won't happen either.

Then either make the lion bigger and leave it alone with Aston Villa, or move the lion down and put the 1874 in Claret above it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ve made a pigs ear of it. I’d rather take the new lion and AVFC than this, its too jumbled. You cant see any of it now at a distance. At least Lerners one you could make out AVFC. At least people who didnt know it at a glance might google AVFC. Now its just a garbled mess. Edited May 4 by spiezels 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
