Sassi h

Hi, iChan. I didn't comment on your first verison of this, but I agree with you that this is easier to read. Our usual advice is to check it out first in black and white (grayscale). The problem with the first one would have shown up immediately if you'd done that: the colors would have clumped together so much that the whole thing would look like one big blob.

This one might have exactly the opposite problem, though. It could be that your pastels are just a little too pale. If I could offer just one suggestion at this point, it would be to strike a balance between the two extremes you've shown us. And resist the tempation to tweak the thing to bring out all the potential for highlights and transparent blends, which I see you've already started to do. Keep it simple, silly!

I love this concept, though. It's really, really cool. :-)

I really like the logo. But I believe the colors that are showing depth are not helping the overall form of the logo (in any shade). In my opinion they are distracting from a perfectly good logo form and will bring up many issues when having to reproduce (more color=more money). If the depth needs to be there, how about hinting at depth with a thinner red keyline in random areas where your transparent forms are now (but that may also busy it up). I'd like to see the logo stripped down to what is shown in red, I think that may be your winner.

However, I didn't see your original thread, so I don't know the background of this. What exactly is this for?

It's simply for a girl called sass i really like :P

it could maybe be a logo for her one day! :)

Thanks for all the helpful comments. You guys know your stuff. I'll take them into account for the final version.

You could do a tee-shirt transfer for her, as a birthday gift or something.
