Fantastic... You are making it really hard for me to pick a winner, I love this design! What other forms of this do you have? I never thought of it this way!

Hey CH!

Great!!!!!! :D
I also love this design... but I'm not supposed to talk about it! ;)
Worked some more on the font and the effects on it... feeling stronger now.
The flag also has a new part... like it is turning from the wind... that is cool I think...

What do you mean about other forms? Can you be more specific? I will work even harder to make it happen! ;) Really am proud of my design and the fact you like it as well.

Thank you,
João

Well, how would you adapt that to maybe making it into a circular patch that would go on our uniform? I really like your idea, but the one draw back it has for our company is that it is a famous moment that is about the US Marines and I want to make sure it is about ALL the military, Army, Navy, Air Force AND Marines :-) Do not get me wrong, I REALLY like it and want to see your ideas on our organization.

We bring brass music into hospitals to raise the morale of veterans of the military.

Thank you so much!

This would be a version of a badge.
Realizing the fact you are a band who spreads happiness I think having more instruments involved would be a good thing... Can you point any instruments you wish to see worked on?

Thank you for everything.

We have 1 of each but 2 of the trumpets.

I do not think you need to mix the bugle with it but if you think it will help, be creative as you like!

Just remember,

Our mission is to bring music to veterans in hospitals and make there lives better.

Thanks so much for your creativity!

Hello!

Here is another option... I see you were not a big fan about the badge version... you want me to give it another try? or...

Thank you!

I am in love with #199, please keep being you. I never thought of anything in this direction, thank you.

This is why I like it so much, not in any order.

1. It is very uplifting and patriotic.
2. It is different and unique to us.
3. It is very simple, I thought it would like elaborate military style but this speaks to me in its own way.
4. It shows what we do, music and brass!
5. It is easy to understand our mission.

I would love to see more ideas for "the Patriot Brass Ensemble" text, although I really like what you have, with and without the fade.

Please show me more of your creativity!

- Steven

Hello Steven!

Wow! This was a bombshell! :)
I was looking to work on the design in order to make it better... but seeing it top ranked and with your support message... well now I am nervous!!!

But in a goodway! ;)
I am very focused in the job and am working on the concept with great proud of the results I am getting... this is just a sharpened version of the design work so far... and I have sketched down a new badge and will try to explore that now...

I just wanted to notice you I am and will be working on the design... so any feedback you want to bring... well bring it on Steven! It is game on!!

P.S - I'm so happy!

I like the outline a lot, but I am not sure about the text.

Maybe smaller text?

No problem! The only thing I am not crazy about in #206 is the stars, can you make some stars that are more in the style of the people?

- Steven

Logo Designer
Hey Steven, can you be more specific?
The stars? Those 3 in the bottom, correct? You'd like them to be more like what? I could not understand that part.

Hope you see this message I dont know any other way to reach you. :(

Perfect! Thanks so much Joao (not sure how to make that mark above the the "a" sorry)

When the committee sees this, it is going to be an alternate route we can do with our image, I am a big fan of it.

I would love to see what other ideas for logos for the Patriot Brass Ensemble you have in this style.

Hello Steven!

I must admit I am a workaholic when I like what I'm doing and see that other people also like it!
Here is a new version on the badge. I think you will like! ;)

When you have your meeting let me know what ideas come out of it!
We still have 6 days ahead!

Hah no, it is really impossible for me to decided right now. There are 4 different directions we can go with our logo and they are all very good. I really like #239!!!

I am not sure what to say, I really love your work! You added a style we have never even thought of, now our people are thinking about how it effects our whole business, :-) it is so fresh! Please feel free to send more of your original ideas about what a logo could be for our business. I have nothing I can really say but that I would love to see more and the work you have done is fantastic!

Actually I have an idea for #207 put the stars on the beginning and end of "to serve veterans" and make "Patriot Brass Ensemble" the whole bottom. Do you think that would work? I trust your expertise.

Hello Steven!

This as been a rollercoaster ride.
Let me see if I can grab all the things I wish to say about this design!
First of all, as you noticed it is a new and fresh approach on the military universe. My will was not to portrait the military itself but the good vibes your organization wants to promote. I think we achieved that, you can see your intentions on the logo and profit on it. I think the message is clear and it is a positive one.
I see you as being the stars wich go around and spread the "words" (in this case, the music) to all the veterans in appreciation for their contribution and value.

I'm very proud about the good feedback you and your organization have given me and hope soon I can progress to the number one spot! :) To acomplish that, I know there is a lot of hard work envolved and like from the beginning my comitment is 110%.

Once again thank you for all the support.
João

Any extra feedback Steven? :)

Very nice, Do not feel bad, there are 4 major ways we can go that are all very well done so it is impossible at this point to pick a number 1 until everyone has seen all the options. Can i see #256 with all white letters?

I had an idea, what if you made your little blue people with brass instruments do something like this famous american painting,

what do you think :-)

Hello Steven,

All white letters... about the painting... as much as I want to try that... I think it is too buisy... incorporating a boat and in order to make it work they could not have they're instruments on... they would be rowing the boat... all this in that small space is really too much. But the fact that you see the possibility on doing this kind of presentation leave me happy because I also think that a good thing with this design you also aquire a team that can present them in various ways... like for example doing that (marvillous) paint you just sent me... You would have this "star soldiers" throu all your communication and that is interesting! :) right?

I'll wait for your repply on the last entry and let me say I am happy that you dont have one 1st but all 4 candidates! :) I can calm down! :)

I changed a bit in "To Serve Veterans" looking at my logo I noticed the "To" was really near the edge... and I fixed it. Want to have it sharpened untill the limit! :)

Good morning Steven,
I see you like this new disposition. Lets see how it looks on my design.

I've replaced the font from lower part. I'm trying to make it easier to read.
Also I am now changing the top part of the design... maybe reduce its size but I am not droping the handwrite... I think we gain from have that personal touch.

Thank you Steven,
João

Like I said, I just reduced the above text and gained room to place the stars... Hope you like it.
Will wait for you feedback.
