yep


CALM - I see calm as light pastel colours, airy-fairy (hence the bubbles/clouds) and generally a relaxed atmosphere.



ANGER: Rage. Epic rage. Lots of red and black, blood, anger, rage, chaos. The shapes are essentially incoherent and very sharp, random, hazy and very messy. Colours are also very dark and evil.



EXCITEMENT: Failed a bit I think... Probably more suited to jumping for joy rather than showing actual excitement. I see vibrant greens and yellows as rather exciting, although I did use green to break up the yellow a bit so it didn't seem so much of an eye-killer. The "suns" are balls of energy, which is the result of atoms becoming excited and stuff. I think so anyways.


I don't really care whether the colours are "right", that's just how I feel, I honestly don't care what other people say. If I got the colours wrong, then I guess there's something wrong with me, isn't there?

Essentially we had to come up with an idea for a new logo for Snappy Jim's Mowing Service.

tl;dr version: top one is my excuse of an epic failure, took too long doing a shitty 3D effect and the final product wasn't even halfway finished for the black/white version. Bottom one was the winning version, and when you compare the two, you can definitely see why the bottom one won.
