Here is my first entry for your logo request. I think you may want to keep it simpler and cleaner than what I have seen thus far. If there are too many small elements in the logo, they will be lost and/or hard to see when you want use your logo in smaller formats (such as on business cards, websites, pens, etc.) Plus, having more than a couple colors may be troublesome for things such as silkscreen printing on shirts, or embroidery on various clothing items.
Let me know if you would like to see any color variations of this one, and I will be happy to provide. I am working on some other alternate versions next, but will keep checking back for any comments or requests you may leave.
Thanks for your consideration.
