Thank you very much for time and effort submitting this AWESOME initial entry pimpii. This logo option is already fantastic... seems like you really understand what we are going for and we really dig your work!
We do not want to hinder any of your creativity / design work, but just as a reference point we think we would like to see the full "Beltway Bat Company" or abbreviated "Beltway Bat Co." in the design. As for your initial entry #9 would like to see the back perpendicular part of the 'B' in possibly a shade of black or dark grey leaving the bubble-ish part of the 'B' in the exact shade of read it is in currently, or a 'fade from black / dark grey from bottom where it connects to the top??
Thank you for your comment. Now I submit another variant of logo. hope youy pleased. Please feel free to tell me if you want change or add something to mt design.
Thank you again for your expertise and accommodating my initial suggestion. Really like what you have done with the new logo (#10). Perhaps moving the "ELTWAY BAT CO." up from underneath your 'B' to make the full company name more linear on one horizontal line as opposed to the B on top of the company name.
