you already know i love it! but I'm not sure about that second frame. i love that section of the eyebrow that brakes the frame. i think you should show that off a little more. i think the second frame hides it. i really love it though!!!

MauricioG,
I am blown away! This is EXACTLY what envisioned this logo would be! Unlike BabbeyLynn, I really like the stroke. Everything about the logo looks and feels like it could be a book publishing company. VERY COOL!

I like this. I would suggest however, removing the background gradient (it distracts from the logo). Would it work inverted without an enclosure? Also, making the entire thing smaller inside the canvas (giving it some breathing room) makes the presentation look much cleaner. :)

The eyebrow or brow ridge doesn't work for me. I'm not a fan of outlines. They can be a printing nightmare and since this is for books, well, I presume it will prabably be printed. And that one bit of outlining does not seem to go with the rest of the illustration. Trying to make the illustration a part of the border, I like, however. I think it can be done differently, better, however.

I am not a fan of the font. Especially the small caps. Small caps seem awfully dated these days, and I think it takes away rather that compliments what is otherwise a nice logo.

Sam when i first saw his alien it didn't have that extra stroke and i love it either way but i notice my favorite part better without that extra frame, and that the piece of the frame that stops because of that eyebrow. thats why i said i like it better without it because thats how it was when i first saw it.

I really do love this. I don't have anything bad to say. I would like to see this on a book.
