T-shirt Design Brief
I'm looking for a t-shirt design as a jokey commemoration of the 2016 logging season in Southeast Ireland.
The t-shirt is for a group of forestry contractors who work togeather regularly.
I imagine the t-shirts will most likely be worn at work in the woods so a white on black print or possible a hi-viz colour like neon yellow or orange on black would be best.
Just one colour in black anyway to keep our printing costs down.
A large version of the design would be on the back of the t-shirt with a small badge version on one side of the chest.
The logging crew came up with a few ideas today.
We all love classic biker-type, rocker t-shirts with emblemic designs on the back. Kind of tattoo style.
We were thinking perhaps a A wolf head (I know...ongoing in-joke) inside of a European logging helmet with the visor up (http://www.husqvarna.com/us/accessories/safety-helmets-and-hard-hats/pro-forest-helmet/577764601/).
In place of the crossed bones we could have crossed chainsaws or a chainsaw crossing with a tree.
Perhaps the whole thing could be surrounded by a chainsaw chain.
The design needs to have the following text:
"Southeast Timber Cutters"
Then either "2016" or "2016 Season" (Depending on what the designer thinks looks best/is most balanced.)
And maybe "Ireland", as above.
Or it could be "Ireland, 2016".
I like those kind of western style fonts but am open to suggestions.
Other design elements that could be considered (from the seasons happenings and our tools and environment) if the designer finds them helpful: a wasp, ash or oak leaves or boughs, pine cones, logtongs ( https://www.google.ie/search?q=www.husqvarna.com+log+tongs&client=safari&hl=en-ie&prmd=isnv&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjxr_PIzJfQAhVlDMAKHf6ZDXoQ_AUIBygB#imgrc=rWzIzadbaG-rlM%3A), hi-viz chevrons, felling axe, pine boughs, camping mugs, ropes, climbing spikes, Silky Zubat hand saws, combi spanners (https://www.google.ie/search?q=chainsaw.husqvarna+combi+spanner&client=safari&hl=en-ie&biw=320&bih=460&prmd=ivsn&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwi3_dbJy5fQAhWkJsAKHcqlCt4Q_AUIBygB#imgrc=OAfcM8fyaINKRM%3A).
It would be good if any chainsaw could be a rough approximation/silhouette of a Husqvarna 550XP, 365or a 395XP.

I can post any additional images to any interested designers of anything mentioned above that they are unsure of.
Thanks for considering this project.

Requirements
Must have
- Must have the text outlined in the brief. Would like to have the wolf's head and helmet. Helmet must be style specified as that is relevant to target wearers. Must have a chainsaw on it somewhere, preferably a realistic enough looking one, doesn't have to be too detailed though, just an accurate silhouette.
Nice to have
- Log tongs would be cool and combi spanners, acorns, oak leaves, pine cones etc.
- Some mountains would be cool too.
- Attached a few random images below of logging logos and a t shirt we have plus some work pics to give a rough idea.
- I suppose in some ways it's a bit of a vintage look we are after with the tools of our trade and the wolf head as a bit of a tongue in cheek element.
Should not have
- Any additional text
- Tribal tattoo style feel.
- American smokey bear helmets.
- More than one colour on black
