If you invest in early-stage education companies do you really want the aggressiveness put into your logo that is portrayed in your examples? What kind of Early-Stage education companies are you dealing with may I ask. Is it wings and growth of children you are looking to portray? Bit confused here!

Those are the logos for Charlie's and Hell's Angels, that I'm trying to take off from. If we used the Charlie's Angels as a starting point, I'd want the figures to be holding something other than guns--perhaps a #2 pencil, notepad, and cell phone....

Thanks for the clarification. That make more since. If you add that to your brief you will have a better outcome for you logo.
Regards

Feedback Please

The last two are great. If you can give me that with men instead of women, we're all set. And thanks!

Again, you've got it if you can make either of the 5-Angel designs (whichever you like better) into guys....
