could you try to modify yhe logo, adding a V in the Q and moving the same crown on top of the V...? you may have a look at similar idea with top ranked ideas so far..
in addition, could you change:
- the background color from back to white (try also another sample keeping the black) - the color of the wording into a dark red/bordoux color
moreover the wording should be changed with the V and the Q in bold.
hope i was clear enough. we love the style and we believe we could find the best idea with this changes.
we scheduled a last meeting tomorrow morning at 9am cet best
I have now submitted the new versions for you.. Just let me know if I missed something or if there is any more requests that you would like to see.. :)
Ps. I see in some of the "Q" i have put the little stroke inside and not on the outside of the O.. Just let me know if you would like me to change it! :)
thanks a lot for your great effort here. I am sure we will keep the contact also following the end of this contest. As expected when time runs, it is always more difficult to focus on little things
a) the Q a bit smaller (just a bit) and a bit more rounded . Grey perls like this are great b) the V in ruby perls. style could be imported form or #111 or #113 c) the logo may go on aside, on the left ot the wording (not ot top) d) the wording may be Vicky in ruby and Queen in grey with the V and Q same proportion of before (where you used bold)..
#110 is also nice try also with this to change the color of the wording. Vicky in ruby perls and Queen in grey perls with the V and Q same proportion , a bit more evident (but not too heavy like #88) le't see
The Q is a bit smaller and more rounded. Grey perls is still the same. The V is in ruby perls. The logo is now horizontal and not vertical. The wording is now ruby and grey.
Please let me know what you think! As I mention in last post I think maybe less is more in this type of design :)
I just want to add that pearls and gemstones usually looks best with a lot of effects like glow, shadows and gradients to it.. You cant see that so good in these designs because of the size of the wording.
So, I have uploaded a close up of the letters V & Q so you can see the details of the wording :)
in producing the last samples, try to see also how it works the wording with just the V and Q in pearls and the remaining letters in the original font but iky in ruby and queen in dark greu/black...
Anne, the overall idea that I want to pass is to make the overall logo great and classy as it is now but not too heavy...this is what has been appreciated the most in the #2 ranked idea..
I have the new designs ready for you, but I got a message from the designer ranked # 2, where he claims that I have stolen his idea, that the designs look the same and that I have to withdraw my entries Im afraid.. I dont think I have stolen his idea if we see the whole process from first submitted entry to the last.. I have only followed directions out of your wishes.. :)
So, if you still like my pearls and gemstone designs, maybe we could continue to work on another layout for the logo.. Maybe we could work further on #114 or #121.. Or I can make another new design including the diamonds if you would like to see something else.. I dont think he can claim the ownership to the use of the crown since your business name is QUEEN.. So we can still use that.. :) I think what he is protecting is the V inside the Q..
Its totally up to you of course, but I would love to continue to work with you!
I have now talked some more with the other designer and he was so nice that we have resolved the case :) I can now continue to do some more work on the logo :)
#128 - With double set of diamonds on V and Q with dark rubyred on IKY and grey on UEEN, font = light #129 - With double set of diamonds on the ICON and V and Q, with dark rubyred on IKY and grey on UEEN, font = regular #130 - With single set of diamonds on V in icon, and on V and Q in text, but with double set of diamonds on Q in icon, font = light #131 - Doble set of diamonds on both Q's and the V in VIKY, font = light
we thank you very much for your incredible effort and passion dedicated to our project. We finally discussed internally and we believe in the fairness of our decision. Although we were the ones asking you to finetune the ideas, we feel more appropriate and fair to recognize that bp 13 had the idea that we all followed.
i am sure we will again work together in many other projects
Anne, your message confirms how professional and fair you Are. Believe me that the decision was not easy and i felt bad. If you Are in Milan i would love to' see you....and also explaining all behind the logo
