comments/critique my logo!

[Ika]

So I've been building an amp at work in my spare time, and turns out we have a laser engraving/cutting/burning machine at work. My boss mentioned that I should put some kind of cool graphic on my amp (which is housed in a 2x4x6 black anodized aluminum case) but I didn't really know what to put. I decided to design some kind of personal logo that I'd use for avatars or whatever other kinds of stupid things I could do with a personal logo.

So after some drafting and photoshopping, I come up with a basic design, but wasn't quite sure how exactly to flesh it out. Here are my three drafts:

clean logo

logo with lines

logo with lines and a diamond

Sorry for the size of the pictures, I made them in 256x256 and reducing the size kills some of the features (like the center line).

I'm not sure I'm quite satisfied with any of these, so if anyone can come up with ideas on how to make the detail look better I'm all ears. The last one (with the diamond) looked good on paper, sketched, but didn't translate so well to pixels.

TIA

How about something along the lines of this?

Ditch the logo. As soon as I saw it I thought of this:

Having a logo that makes people think of anything other than you or your company is foolish. Everyone knows this.

i noticed that, but I've always liked the imagery of swept wings on a tapered body. I based the logo mainly off of two things - the code geass eye wings thing and the Phoenix from Starcraft 2. It's also not going to represent anything like a company, so it's not particularly important.

also bump.

Of the 3, I like the last one best

I like the first one...the last one isn't bad either.
