Hello. As you can see, I finished my symbol! My theme is Future Generations. Why did I choose this topic? I want to give an impact the world about what our children, grandchildren, children of our grandchildren about their suffering towards global warming if we don't stop it soon.
What is my symbol suppose to be? A candle-shaped baby being lit up. You can see by the melty-ness of the candle, as if the candle is fading, going extinct soon...
The hidden message? The meltyness is suppose to represent how our future generation will melt off - extinct, poof, melt away and be gone forever - in the future if we don't do something. The baby's hands were clutching together tightly as if trying to fight off the global warming, and the legs looks like they're about to stand up and fight off. Be shameful, you're letting your children, children's children, grandchildren's children to take care of our mess! And what if they fail to get up, and fail to go on? Let go, fall onto the floor and begone, forever? What if, just what if...
Our future generation WILL extinct if we don't stop this madness!
Explanation ;
SYMBOL DRAWING
Baby - To represent the future generation
Girl - Well, girls are the one who produce/nurture our future generation, a mother, so I chose a girl.
Hand clutching together - To show their suffering/struggling for the world, usually humans will tend to clutch and shut themselves up when they're afraid or scared, eh?
Flame - Global warming, the heat from global warming, right on top of our future generation. Well, the sun is above us, thus the heat comes from above us too.
Flame shine - The sunshine, or the sun in general. Global warming are somewhat caused by the heatness of the sun in some way, right?
COLORS
Red, yellow, orange - colors of the flame; color mixture of anger, fear, hatred
Grey - Grey is the colour that means unworthiness. The baby is unworthy and unhelpful, hopeless against the global warming and heat torture.
White - Color of innocence, in some way, the baby is innocent, it didn't cause global warming ; we did, and guess what, it has to suffer for what we're doing! Shameful.

pretty neat concept you have there. graphically it looks appealing as well. but i think the shape of the baby should be a bit more deformed.. the position of the baby looks like that of a foetus, is it intentional? if it is then i think it should be stronger too.
i once saw this image of two human figures having a candlelight dinner. the interesting part was that those figures were made of paper and the fire from the candle at the centre of the table was burning them away,slowly. kinda reminded me of that image when i saw your logo design.
hope you dont mind me giving all those comments uninvited haha. was on eddy's page when i saw your link
Ohnonono, i dont mind at all! :'D
Yeah, i guess you could say it looks foetus-y and baby-ishly shaped, haha. Come to think of it, it should've been deformed since it was melting away xD; But meh, i bet if i did that, it wouldnt look like a baby anymore XD;
Thanks for the comments, do come by more often! ^3^ You're eddy's cousin right? I heard about your architecture stuffs from him xD
