Basically the same design on a dark background. Also used a simple "V" inside the enclosure. Thought it may be helpful to show the design on a dark background or how it may be used in a website design. Please let me know if I can provide other examples.
I love the black background. Can you please do one with the cursive "V" instead of the stock "V". I like the cursive V in #19. I think the black would look great with the cursive look
Here is the original design with a dark background as requested. Let me know if you would like to see other orientations of this logo. Thanks for the feedback.
Let me know if you would like to see any other design concepts prior to the closing of the contest. I feel that the design you have ranked first, at this time, is a strong design and will work great conveying the message of strength and elegance.
