HELP, PLEASE!!

So, I’m doing a few design rough drafts for a friend of mine.


Basic breakdown:

  • My company is called Magnolia Acquisitions- I don’t really have any ideas for a logo but it can’t be too flowery/girly because of the nature of the work.
  • And it’s an accounts receivable financing firm- if it could just say “Accounts Receivable Financing” under the company name that’d be great…
  • I connect retailers and vendors with banks to establish lines of credit for purchasing goods. I manage those accounts so that the vendors can focus on selling products instead of getting paid.
  • I’m going after the firearms industry because it’s something that they’ve never done before- It’d help if the logo was somewhat edgy.

I’ve been trying to balance the name “magnolia …” with the firearm market.  So far, the only thing I’m attached to in my design is the name.  I made it edgy, but it could still fit in with something magnolia.  Help! Leave me comments!

Wk4As3 a personal symbol

For this class, graphic symbolism, I haven’t posted that many of my assignments here.  I’m not really sure why.  Anyway, the last assignment was to create a graphic symbol that we felt justified our personalities.  I came up with a few drafts:

I decided to go with thumbnail #6

Final:

I feel as that it captures me pretty well…. I’m a crazy mess. :-)
