As part of my project I came up with a logo based on what we had initially. In the beginning I just had the sun and moon in the corners. I looked at giving the sun and moon some faces, but it's just so boring and done before. And I thought that doesn't even say Battle of the Gods, it says nursery rhyme. Then I had the idea of hands holding the sun and moon, as this invokes the imagery of Gods much more. I suppose I was thinking about the Creation of Adam by Michelangelo.
Also who else can hold the sun and moon in their hands but a God? So I did some sketches and then vectorised them.
I knew about the limitations of the laser etcher when I designed these, so I focussed solely on line art rather than any fill. In the case of the moon this means that it looked filled anyway in the smaller version, but it pays off in the larger version.
