Concept:
FundMine is a website that provides funding for small businesses, entrepreneurs, and individuals. Due to our geographical location and background we have themed our brand as "mining" money.
Visual Themes:
A miner, pickaxe, money(Examples: gold, gold coins, $)
Keywords:
Resourceful
Friendly
Diligent
Versatile
Overarching Theme:
Cartoony
Closing Thoughts:
We are looking to replace the miner from the attached .png, it needs to work with the same green colored font(00FF00 we will do the text mockup ourselves), we are wanting an entire cartoon figure (head-toe). You are the artist, we are interested in seeing your creativity, please do not feel bound to our mockup. We do want a character with a face, we will be using it like the company mascot, as well as the logo.
Thanks,
-FundMine
