My vote goes to Xcessive. Again lovely bit of artwork, great plastic 3d effect and a love the logo, reminds me of a spider for some reason The colours and background match perfectly. Jye has a good piece but the colours dont attract my eye as much as Xcessive's. The logo isnt quite as appealing either in my opinion.

Urm, both are very well done tbh. Sleek, simplistic and have chosen a stark background which makes the actual feature stand out more than if they had used a heavy textured background. X's - I like the complexity of the arms? (It looks like a spider to me lol) and the depth added to them with highly contrasting high/low lights. I like the limited use of colour, the red stands out and gives the whole piece a bold, almost sinister feel to it, like a android/cyborg arachnid with glowing red eyes. The slight texture behind it though kinda ruins it a little for me - I like the fact that there is little to the background, but by having just that slight smoke/marbling type thing close around the object, it looks like a bad Microsoft Paint blend. It would have been better with no texture at all or a very thin red glow eminating from behind the whole design/logo, like an eclipse with just the light all around it. Jye's - I like the border around it, gives it a frame which makes it look more complete I think. Don't like the line cutting the background in half - I think it would look better if it had bissected the background in half exactly, rather than off centred. Not as much depth to the metal objects, even though there is just as much contrast from light to dark, overall it looks very light so looks slightly more flat than X's, The bottom orb is too light along the base, seems an unrealistic direction from light to come from, and would have liked some shading between/below the 2 shapes so it doesn't appear as though it's just pasted on top of a flat background, it would have been good to make the background seem more involved with the whole design concept. I like the use of colour and really great blending considering it's made of 4 basic colours and overall, more feminine which would appeal to me as a girl lol. So sorry I can't end this battle but I go for Jye's design this time
