Anybody remember as a kid getting those little translucent, plastic, red fish out of a gum ball machine that would curl up on your hand because of the heat transfer.......

Marvelous, Roy! Very good! Just a thought here, did you maybe think about some other color for the letters? Maybe gray is a bit to corporate here, but overall logo is hyperfantastic!

Really nice Roy, you've officially put the first thought of Christmas into my mind! Don't we sometimes get these in crackers in the UK? I'm sure I used to as a kid anyway. Oh well, this is stunning. Congrats.

It´s a very interesting and beautifull fish/ribon.
I would like to know more about the concept behind this one, why a fish/ribon?=)

Dec. 12 '08

firebrand said:

Thanks, Bianca. I got my inspiration from The Fortune Telling Fish found in Christmas crackers but opted to make mine more ribbon like.

onpurpose said:

Unfortunately, the colors and the layout made me think to a Spanish brand for cigarets, called... Fortuna. ( http://www.thetobaccoshop.net/images/fortuna.jpg )

But very beautiful, and love the fish shape

logomotive said:

The colors and layout made me think of this http://images.businessweek.com/ss/06/07/top_brands/image/marlboro.jpg

Roy , was that your inspiration? LOL

Dec. 15 '08

firebrand said:

I see where you're coming from with the tail, Mike. No actually, I drew inspiration from this:
