Storm Forge (Grey Smoke Version)
Brief from client
personal logo
This is a logo I came up with for my own design business, still focusing on a storm/lightning related concept. This concept involves a lighting bolt being "forged" in fire (and if you really wanted to get deep, the lightning symbolizes an idea whereas the forging fire is what makes it a real concept.)
Anyway, I sketched it out to look like an S, a flame, and even a hurricane symbol. This version is has a grey/blue color theme that makes the fire portion the "smoke" after a heated object is cooled. I have another version that will have orange and represent real fire - both of which I want opinions on.
As with the fonts, the Storm portion is Sucrose (which I don't have the paid font suite for, so I only have the grunge version of the font that is free - I'll buy it if this logo becomes a reality.) Forge is Cinzel.
