@Jared Granger Thanks, Jared!
@Jeff Jenkins Yeah, it's lovely when that happens. They kind of took parts and pieces of some other concepts I did and pieced them together. I tried hard to push this. Thanks, Jeff.
Thanks so much, everyone, great to hear from each and every one of you!
@saurabhj Thanks! Well, heh, that is what I was hinting at in my comment above about them piecing together my concepts into a design. I had a concept that was centered around little pine tree arrows which inferred an "alliance" and a separate concept that involved the shape of the state of California. Well, they decided they liked both and wanted to join the concepts together which I thought was a bad idea. They passed up a lot of quality concepts I gave them. I won't link you to their web site but what the Alliance came up with is up there in all it's glory.
This is really good, the idea is really clear and I love how you've executed it. The consistent line weight throughout helps everything feel really cohesive and clean, I love that. Great use of inverted colours too. Sorry to hear what happened in the end, but wonderful work regardless.
