I like the font in #84. Could you play with some other designs for the 'i'?

Thanks.

Make it feel more like a 'y'. I think that if people don't know the brand they might think its a spacer icon between 'whirl' and 'bird'

I like #88. Maybe play with the body of the Y. Make it feel more like a bird but still hold that geometry. Make sense?

Client
Try adding talons. Maybe change the Colour too.

good morning :) (here)...
maybe one talon in the lower part could work . and try it in tones of orange ? the whole Y . the rest in dark grey as is .
see what i can do.
thanks for the feedback :)

Getting there. Still feels like it needs more birdlike features. Maybe less angular and add a head? Just some thoughts

Thanks Solair, much better. Could we try #172 with a grey background and white font?

Thanks!

Logo Designer
dark or lighter gray as background? ( asking if you have a placeholder for the logo, to try to match it somehow)

Client
Darker grey but not too dark. More of a calming or pleasing grey

I think we're going to go with your design but we want to play around with some options to nail down the look. Let's start with trying a dark grey for the background. Also can we see what the bird looks like in yellow (while also providing an orange versions)?

Thanks for your hard work!

this gray is the nuance middle way between the light and dark ones before.

Client
really happy with #184. Can I ask what file format is this delivered in? .eps?
9 years ago
 
Logo Designer
oficially 1 jpg 1000x800 and 1 vector eps.
but , after the contest is over i 'll be allowed to let you know my email address , so if you'll need in time another format, just let me know.

please note that the background is not part of the design , unless you need that too...

Client
Thanks, we love all colours and everything including background so we'd like all of it in eps if possible. I would love to see a couple more options for the bird before finalising if possible. maybe play around with the legs a bit more, make their presence stronger. Also, try a more realistic approach as well if you can, maybe by adding a little more detail? Just want a couple more options before we finish up.

an eps including everything is okay. now regarding the details, at small sizes there will be a loss of them. i can surely try, but as i told before, details are usually lost in small sizes. i'll get back to you with a few versions.

I understand. Please see the link below for basic reference to the feet. Focus on the the foot that sticks out, make it more prominent. I just want to see what I could look like.
