just a note to let you know i should have some new ones finished to upload later tonight, (Tuesday). (my last note I wrote said something about Wednesday--I meant Tuesday--that what i get for trying to sound sensible at that time in the morning when i have stayed up all night :-) ( Sometimes design requests come in at odd hours since this contest is multi-continental.)
(I am going to wait until I get a few that are more "finished and developed" than what i put up yesterday and with more variation.)
Thanks for keeping within the top 5 so I can have the time to do so.
ps: could also go with a lighter blue gray/green color scheme with the elements of 456 if that is what you are leaning toward now or a mix of that and either the darker blue or gold.
if you would like to see it, i do have one more design. I have a version of 457 with a laurel wreath surrounding the crown and sheild. (with proportions adjusted, of course), and also have a version of it done in the soft blue grey the dark blue and the gold combo which is actually quite nice.
Also willing to do any of my entries in the more blue gray/bluegreen color theme you seem to be favoring right now if you would like to see.
sorry i repeated myself in the last note. i didn't see where it posted, so eneded up posting virtually the same info a second time. (didn't realize i am now on a second page of comments :-) !
if you care to see any other combos or hues, please let me know. thx again. c
It's sort of ironic that in the end they went back to the initials etc (more like some that were happening in the middle of the contest like 285, 287, etc.only with a different surround and back to the original lighter colors :-) so, was a little hesitant to swing back that way.
i was noticing that the contest still hasn't picked a winner yet, though today is the first day i have looked at it since our last contact.. Probably a moot point,but if you end up wanting to try other adjustments to any of my entries old or new, please contact me. Would be willing to do. C
