Dauntless Studios
Brief from client
-start up game company
-hip and bold
I'm a 3D game artist that is starting a small game company, and I need some feedback on my logo design. I think it looks alright but I'm sure a trained eye can spot the (for them) obvious flaws in the design. As a startup without a lot of money you need to wear many hats and hence I designed this logo myself, but it's important to have the logo to be as professional as possible. We need your help, constructive criticism would be much appreciated!
about the logo; after showing it to several people, the gamers among them usually saw the underlying image, but others had all kinds of different interpretations. It's supposed to be a bit playful and not so serious. The vector graphic still needs some tweaking, I'm more experienced with pixels.
Cheers..

Logo needs to be simplified and the symbol is to my liking, but it also needs to be more refined, good job, just simplify it and refinalo.
I like the idea
I generally really like this logo, but I'm not sure of what's going on with the lower part of the dog. What is it ? Some kind of hand-grenade? If so, I would try to make it more obvious.
I would maybe add pupils to the dog's etes, so he doesn't look like a zombie =)
That being said, I do like this logo with its custom font. Good job.
I'm not going to rate this one, as it still in a very raw stage. One thing that I want to mention is that dog's fangs are wrong here. If a dog's lower jaw is not dropped nor opened, there is no way you can be able to see fangs.
Never heard of "artistic license", didn't you? =)
this logo is the kind that lets me intrigued by some details and the more i look at it the more i am asking more about details. For example chiemsee logo was always frustrating me or polo logo, the same. When adding a higher degree of detail in a logo the right step is to define, functionality is before all. If the elements are well defined , me or the gentlemen would not be in fog right now.
I will thumb down for the symbol, not because is bad, but because it can be much better.
Is this a vampire dog? I keep thinking it is a vampire dog. The fangs, the eyes with no pupils, the bleeding thing.
:) Is it?
I think it's a zombie dog.

I think that a dog just took a bite of a waffle and a maple syrup is dripping down from him...
No it is a...
uh..
well it is...
Yeah, it might be that. Or a grenade?
A zombie dog with a grenade? Maybe.
:)
Dammit, I got it. It's a chihuahua with a grenade in his mouse... With saliva dropping from it.
I did sort of see a pin and grenade structure after a bit of soul searching (and seeing your post). I think that must be what it is!
Waffles, that dog made my mermaid day, lol... I was thinking of that eye ball from a triangle that can be place on a dog's face along with that light bulb and a hand with an index finger from " good ideas " and a dragon fly instead of a tail and we got an awesome looking logo here, lol...
Oh my!
That would be something! :D
Thanks everyone for the wonderful and helpful replies, time to iterate :)
