dude those are both hella sick. I like invader05's idea of putting the text around the sun thing too it makes it look a lot more original. Good luck with the brand bro
I think it would look better if he kept the black bar, but without text in it, and then used something similar to those 2 examples you did. I just think the black bar at the bottom looks good as a base for the logo kinda.
my two cents is: but the name on the left hand side, under the sun and above the bear on a slope angle, if that makes sense... but yer super cool logo man!
Whenever I see a thread about some kid making his own company it always seems to be a knock off of another brand. This however seems quite original and i'm digging the logo. Good luck man!
