Hi Guys,
So I wanted to get your thoughts on a logo that was designed for a start-up company that I have a hand in. The target is automotive but I can’t say anything more than that. The project name is GearHead, we wanted a simple design that we would make into vinyl decals with.
It’d be great to see what you guys think.

Thanks!
I think it's good, the gear and the letter G are both obvious. Nice and simple. I like it.
I agree - it looks good, even though it's simple and obvious. So many logos don't make any sense, or use letters that are so stylized you don't know what they are.
Looks cool but i swear ive seen something very similiar before
I’ve created a few logos myself, and I think it is good. The other advantage of simple is that is translates well to light and dark for different backgrounds. You can also do easy outline and color variations.
I might play with bring the top of the G around a bit more to see what that does, but it’s pretty damn good as is.
Looks a little like an AR15 bolt face, but only a little. I appreciate the clarity in branding and legibility. That's a yes for me dawg.
The proportions are a bit odd. I'd lower the right hand side from approx 3 o'clock to 4 and have a look.
He worked at Gizmonic Instutite, just another face in a red jump suit.. he did a good job cleaning up the place, but his bosses didn't like him so they shot him into space!
That said, yours is different enough and clean enough that I like it.

I agree with this assesment given above.
What most bothers me is that the "fulls" and "voids" of the gear are not the same in proportion or similar. Said another way, it appears that your gear design will not do very well at actually turning like a gear.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Love the comments.
I had to bring down the image, the designer was a little sensitive. :(

Well tell the designer we said "you're welcome, jeeze!" And roll your eyes for us.

In reply to Nis14 :
Sensitive about what? The concept was good and what was shown was good. But there is always room for improvement...And growth.
If hes that sensitive.......a creative field is not for him.....
I wondered where the image went... Makes sense now
