Hello boyingdesign! Thank you very much for your submissions! I REALLY like how #110, #109, and #108 look. I think you've captured everything that I've been asking for in my design brief. This logo mark not only includes intelligent design, but also viciously fast and elite gaming.
I do think that the design can be refined a little, and here is what I'm thinking:
1. The "Micro" on the bottom should say "PDX Micro" instead of just micro (I want the logo mark to be a logo mark, and not take the place of "PDX" in my name).
2. I think the font on the bottom that will say "PDX Micro" needs to be more "techie". Maybe play around with some different fonts?
3. The sharp legs on the "P" and "d" don't look quite right... The rest of the logo is very smooth, but those legs look short / jagged. Maybe try lengthening them a little and make it flow better with the size of the rest of the letter?
Thank you for your time and ideas! It is greatly appreciated!
Also, whatever you attempt with the above, also make one with just "micro" under so I can see how that looks? ;) Thank you for your time and design ideas!
Actually, after thinking about it, I think "Micro" is the only thing that belongs under the logo (you had the right idea from the beginning). I do think that the micro needs to be more gamer/vicious looking though to go along with the logo mark. As the other comment I posted, please take a look at the text on the following image for your inspiration :)
#141 still looks great - but it looks jagged (not very smooth). If you look at #127, the legs look more smoothed over and not so rough.
#147 looks good - but I think it's missing something... Maybe take the blue accent on the bottom and top of the arches and extend it to the other side as well?
#143 looks good as well - but I like the sharp "knife-like" corners better than the "devil horns" on the other side of the logo mark. Maybe see if you can make the knife-like corners on all 4 instead of the devil horns?
