Hey Dennis, Thanks for submitting to my contest. I like your initial designs. Some things to keep in mind: It is not necessary to use the image of a tornado. It will be important that the logo feels a bit like it has movement or depth....possibly exploding. The imagery of a gun-sight as in #42 is interesting but also not required. Lastly, the finished logo will need to have a font style that is either original or feels original. If it looks like a stock font, it will likely not be selected. (for example, in the font you have chosen the damage pattern is identical in the N's and T's.)
You have a great start and I am thrilled that you have chosen to participate. I have visited your profile and you are a very accomplished and talented designer. Thank you.
