The client wanted a logo that represented their name. Squid Punch is an up and coming video game youtube channel. This was one of the thumbnails I came up with. 

 

This is the next step as I fleshed it out in Illustrator. The text is a place holder. I couldn't quite put my finger on what was wrong. I then realized the red needed to go. I changed the inner circle to blue and deleted the colored circle outside the black circle. Bleow is the next step. 

I'm closer to being done. I have a few things to talk to the client about. It has been coming along nicely.
