Oh, where to turn to when I need epic graphics other than Subeta?

Im starting a small mobile piercing business with a friend, and I need a logo.

I want it to be full-color, but have a monotone version too for business cards and black and white flyers. The name is Heartcore Body Gems. I want a "grungey" heart, with two hollow needles poking through in a skull-n-crossbones fashion, with skulls on the dull end of each needle.

I'm looking to pay a few mil in sP for the perfect piece :)

DON'T FORGET TO PING!

Sounds interesting! I'm not that professional but I think I can give it a go. Are there any ideas/graphics you would like me to incorporate?

Actually, I was thinking about having two hollow needles with skulls on each end going through the center of a heart. And I'm going with "Heartcore Body Gems" instead of coeur de bijoux, so you can add an HC or heartcore or something in a grungey font. You can do whatever you want with the skulls to make them old and scary looking.

So basically something kind of like these going through a heart that you can design. Don't forget that the needles are hollow :)

When you send me a concept we can discuss a price ^_^

ohh I just googled hollow needles >_< they look painful xD

Anyways I'm working on it now. I'll have you a WIP screenshot soon and you can let me know if there's anything you'd like to change :)

[edit] Here we go~ I tried to go with flat colours to make it look clean. I haven't done skulls before, and it took a real long time xD Plus I had some schoolwork I needed to finish. Sorry If it's taking pretty long, but let me know what you think :)

ooooh. me likey! and don't worry, i'm in no rush at all so take your time. my only request, can you make the needle look a lot more sharp? they are actually razor sharp in person :) i'm worried about the heart looking too childish, but i'm sure you'll make it look great!

i can pay you 3mil for the final square product in .png format (transparent please) and the monotone version, which i want to basically be like >this<. is that cool?

edit: not sure if this will help but here's my original concept on a sticky note :P click no need to copy it exactly but just to help you get the gist of what i'm looking for

I need to let you know a few things >_<

1. I actually have more than one design, and from one design I have a few that differ in postioning as well, so that you can put the logo almost anywhere.
2. I'm really sorry but I have to let you know this because the client and designer both have to know. Logo designs actually cost wayyyy more than that..
3. All the images in the logo are self-made and the fonts are for free commercial use, so you and I don't have to worry about trouble with any sort of police xD

[edit] It's all done! The ones on the black background are in case you need to print it on any dark background(though they all view nicely on dark backgrounds). I'll give you all the files without the watermark after payment.
