Creating a badge to accompany the promotional material for Authentic Jobs' 5-year anniversary. The celebration kicks off in a few days. Please critique.
(And allow me to thank many of you reading this who have helped make Authentic Jobs what it is today: Thank you.)
Love the unique shape of this. In fact, everything about it. Only thing I would experiment with is 'Authentic Jobs, Inc.' text being a little bolder, and and 2px inner shadow on the main shape that's somewhat inline with the drop shadow of the '5'. Great work
Reminds me of 1950's automobile emblems. Could be the shape of the badge itself or the vertical stripes within it, or both.
Regardless, very clean.
I should also add that if you're going with this design, you should probably have belt buckles made. :) Surely I can't be the only person who's thought of this.
Love the buckle and emblem comments/ideas.
To me, when i saw it in thumbnail view, i instantly thought of black-imprinted aluminum machine plates, but those have been on my mind a lot lately, so…

Very regal, sharp and clean — per usual Cameron.
'INC' strikes me as unnecessary pretty much every time I see it, but that's super minor.
Diggin' the pinstripes & glow, a lot.

The one thing I'd say is to increase the brightness of the years. They kind of get lost a little. Not much, just a really little bit.
Otherwise, it's great!
