Reptile

Im on the fence to whether i actually like this or not. I think the addition of the bracket in the text is a bad thing as it just adds another element of confusion. The main problem with it though is your symbol is way to big compared to the size of the text. This version without the gradients is better than with the gradients though but your symbol needs a bit more work - like all the gaps between the pentagons should be equal. The whole thing overall just comes off a little bit amateurish to me but with a few tweaks here an there you can get it looking good. the idea of the scales and eye is a good one i think. Keep going!

I like version 1 the best so far. It is true, that bracket makes this look like Repitile.

My idea to try? Ditch the pentagons, they are nice, but they are too much. See in version one, that quadrilateral hidden in the gradients? Use just that (but keep the white lines...) uh... screw it, too hard to explain it. I'll just photoshop it.

How about this? (Just make the bottom corners pointy and level.
