Custom Trail Emblem Made

I definitely like the direction this is headed, but the I and L seem to be smaller than the T and A. They dont look proportional. Anyone else have the ability to draft something up?

I'm not a graphics guy, but it seems you're trying to force that R into a distinctive role that won't work. Why not try something like:
T4RTRAIL
 
Looks like using the "TR" from a TRD logo is goofing it all up. Looks better than the original but the "T" is huge compared to the rest. Its getting there! :thumb:
 
There is always the good old 4th gen trail badges. (PT413-89090)

All you need is a spot 10" long to put it...... No jokes

I thought having the T and A the biggest was the best! Well...the T for sure, and I guess some are in to big As.
 
Speed model (not going to finish modelling it if it isn't worth it) and a fully ghetto render but just had an idea I thought looked a little more cohesive, the A I L still feel pretty heavy but certainly open to suggestions:

Since I have no idea how to use my 3D printer, I would be down to buy a set or two
 
^What software did you use?

I could have used any of a half dozen... 3ds Max :)

Still need to chamfer the "R" but that'd take me another 20 minutes to fix the intersections and then smooth it nice. Just a quick draft (well an hour anyway)

Looks great!!! On the fence about the A. I'm not sure if i like the vertical leg of it... Can you make it a regular A and keep all the proportions as they are??
 
Ideally you want the weight of all the letters to match. Right now the "TR" are much heavier and wider than the "AIL". Not saying this is the answer but you can kind of see what i mean

I'd have to say this takes the cake. If somehow the letters could be connected discreetly this is perfect! Nice work bud!

I like it! I'll build one asap :)

I sloped the "A" to fill the void and give it a little mountain-like look with the AIL

I like Morris's better :)

Any chance you can email me that logo you made so I can convert it to a cut file and cut a copy on my plotter???
 
A rough, the edges still need to be beveled to soften it but you get the "picture" :)

Yeah, i started working on it to get it more balanced out. Will post a pic after i get it all finished up.

Is there any way for you to post the cad file on the site that the other guy did so some of us could try and cut it on a 3D printer? You did an awesome job on the logo and Im really interested to see what it would look like on a vehicle.
