I was asked by my general manager of iFLY Portland to create logos and a simple shirt design or the 1 year anniversary of the tunnel being open. I chose to base the design on one of the most well known neon signs in Portland. I added the iFLY "fly guy" and played around with font and got final approval to send the design to be made into stickers. The shirt for the anniversary started as a tie dye colorful shirt of the building, but due to time and cost became a blueprints inspired blue shirt.

Later in the year I was asked to create a kids league, and with that a kids team for competitions. A fellow shift supervisor wanted a Pterodactyls themed team name and logo to help rally the kids that were registering and participating. Initially the drawings below were considered too cute so I leaned more into the realistic outline in line with a more e-sports feel. The colors are taken from iFLY's official company colors and the logo was printed on posters and handouts.
