Guns & Roses





If you’re into rock then you know about Gun’s and Roses. There still popular after all these years and here’s one of their logos. I actually got this logo from the game Guitar Hero in which their songs are used. I’ve always been interested in the designs and logos of both Metal , Rock and Punk music groups and merchandises because they are always different and very out there. Here were see a simple combination of both guns and roses. The unique part that I notice is the little details. Notice that the vines of the Roses actually wrap around the gun itself. It’s a nice little touch that didn’t have to be done, but was anyways.

Also the letter form or font is perfectly chosen. The font gives off a very old school late 1800’s western vibe while also having this modern twist too it. You get this sense that it wants to represent the old west because of the Guns in guns and roses, but that it also didn’t want to lean too far to the old west and wanted to appeal to the more modern crowded.

The thing that I would change about this design is to do something different and unique with the center of the logo. It looks like some kind of fabric was placed their and it just seems boring compared to the rest of the design. Anything would work. Another rose, a skull a guitar and maybe even a music note could fit in. Just add something to the rather boring space.
