Hey we love what you did with the font and lettering but the emblem, while really a cool idea, is too similar to a couple of logos that are familiar to us. (Red Hot Chili Peppers is one example). Can you show us some other options? Thanks! We wouldn't mind Kanji characters and/or koi fish and more obviously Japanese/Asian elements.
We looked at your portfolio and we reallly like a lot of your work... we just feel some of the logo's are too abstract... we liked the colours in the orange/grey stuff... would love to see more Thanks
