Initial idea was to have an abstract phoenix to symbolise renewal and rebirth, but decided to hack it down to just a wing and using green to represent nature, renewal and health.
#84 and #85 are STRONG entrants! These designs stand out, and are elegant in design. Ok not to have the hyphen in this case. The head of the pheonix looks a bit like a duck - and perhaps a dead one based on the position of the head. Can you make some adjustment on the head? Very good - thank you!
#129 reduced neck length so it wouldn't look so much like a duck/goose, and changed the wings. #130 tilted the head so it wouldn't look too static without losing too much symmetry.
Would you mind trying to emulate the design/logo for the Phoenician resort in Scottsdale Arizona? Best way to see their phoenix desing is google search then google images.
#224 Sorry this is as close as I'm willing to go to that design. #225 Similar to previous but with tail. #226 Just uploaded anyway but I think the head leans too much to a fantasy style bird which I think you are looking for something more subtle so I'll upload a combination of #224's head with #226's body/wings later.
