I think you need to define the eyes and the nose bridge a bit more...the font is kinda bland to me but that's probably because I see it used all the time

pretty cool...I like your thinking


PS - This is supposed to be a human face right?

i liked your concept. but "winter artwork" is right. you have to define the eyes and make the shape cleaner. this font is also not going with the theme. try to use some very professional heavy font.

good work. keep designing.

About the face it's based in reptiles more in snakes, thats why the nose.

nice work...

i noticed that it was an animal face but not reptiles...

my first impression was like a goat or deer or something to that family.

if you really want to emphasize the reptile look...maybe you could add the tongue. :)

I think its an interesting logo. But I thought it was something like a goat as well until I read further down. I think snakes have more slit-like eyes ( the pupils) and maybe a shorter snout might make it more recognizable.
"Why?"

I actually like the font.

But I too didn't realize it was a snake. I was thinking it was a bull. I think maybe the nose is a bit too long maybe? If you look at a snake head on, the nose isn't that far down from the eyes.

And I agree with baiskee, maybe add a tongue to make it more recognizable. Or fangs? And the slits in the eyes too - that would be cool.

But I really like where you're headed with this. It was definitely eye-catching.

Hi! Maybe U need an opinnion from a girl? :)

So, I agree with others about the deer [or a goat] look. If U want to achieve a snake look, I think U should accept the idea about the tongue and maybe redo the eyes. The nose is too far down, I agree on that too. And take good look at the picture krissoleil posted for U: do U see the nostrils anywhere? :)

I like the idea very much, it is effective and easy to remember.
Design is all U need

thanks to all guys, i'm taking note of your tips.
By the way, when do you say "stop" to clients? Because I think I let my clients to intrude too much when i'm designing for them.

Uhhh...

I don't say 'STOP' to my clients but I tell them why I do or don't design like that.

I like to share idea with my clients. :)

I think the symbol is too large comparing to the text.
Try making it smaller, just to see how it looks.

The symbol reminds me of the face of a wrestler called "Sting" , that was painted on the face.

Nice idea, though. The execution could be improved, like any design of any designer in the world...:)

The concept is ok, but is'nt direct, you have to integrate the elements to convert it on a symbol.

Don't say that, it is a Mortal Sin. :D

Just get their ideas then suggest what you have in mind. While it is important to listen to a client's request, I believe that its our responsibility as designers is to stand up for our work.

Don't let them design your work and making you, as their tool. ;)

I agree with baiskee and grphx i dont think it is ever wise to say stop to the client, remember you are doing the job for them. The more they "believe" that they are involved and the more they see that you are listening to them (you dont have to implement what they are always asking) the more they will feel that you are doing everything in your power to do what they want. If you disagree with that they want then you just have to say thats an interesting concept however....(you then say why you dont believe their idea would work in this project )

try to use negative space to create a hidden 'S' for the company name, into the mark. people go apecrap over hidden elements and usage of negative space.

I like ur font but the eyes aren't the best choice for me

My opinion is that u should somehow connect the font with the eyes and make the logo more "connected".

hope that helps,
