In creating this design, I wanted to put emphasis on the character (the guinea pig in a space suit), at the same time building a balanced composition in which all the elements fall into place to obtain a dynamic, bold (iconic even) image. To this end, I designed the character in strong, modulated lines complemented by slick detail lines that give it a sense of volume without unecessary intricate details, thus avoiding cluttering the design as a whole. I depicted the logo in the form of a simplified planet, with a little glow around it and a simple suggestion of a shade; by doing this, I wanted to make it an organic part of the composition by putting it into a specific context and making it communicate with the rest of the elements.
