The VG Resource

Hey guys I could use some critique and advice for the logos I'm making for various clients. I'll post a few here and you can tell me what you think. Thanks.

Here's what I'm working on for one client. He wanted this for anew brand line called "Eyes of the World" and he wanted a hip fresh "organic" look.



What do you think so far?

I really like it!
I'd recommend finding something other than the swirls though--it doesn't seem to mesh with the look. Maybe closing the edges into an opaque circle?
The fruit stem also seems a little unnecessary. The 'WORLD' part looks perfect, though. Leave it like that.

Your right the stem is a little out of place. I'll see what I can do about the rest. Thanks.

Here's my latest logo.

I really like these Koopaul, the last one has a storybook-esque appeal to it.

Thanks! This one was a lot of fun. I'm still waiting to see what my client thinks of it.

My newest logos.

A Japanese bar and grill in Canada.

I don't love the font you used for the Saikou part. Maybe find one a little more rounded and more controlled? It can still have line width variation, but this one looks too sloppy.
Also, can you try bumping up the contrast for the gradient? I feel like that would make it 'stronger'.

Okay I'll consider that. Thank you! I'll post the revised version when I'm done.

How's this look? Any better?

I like those colors a lot better!
Though I don't know how I feel about the beveled look. Maybe it's just me.
I really like the pseudo Anti-Aliasing done with the light gray around the kanji.

I like the beveled look myself but I don't really like how the grey around the Kanji is done... it looks all rough and rigid. It would probably look better on a different background/implemented on an actual sign though so idk.

I couldn't decide on the style for the kanji perhaps the original one with the new font on top?

A new simple one.
