I refined FixedFun's mascot design for Kbin. Thoughts? Feedback? (More pics/alts in post!) (media.kbin.social)

I really loved @FixedFun 's idea for the kbin mascot, so I decided to refine it a bit and make some color alternatives. All credit to them for this wonderful idea! I merely refined it. Note, the circles beside the logo are just a color pallete swatch, not actually meant to be apart of the logo.

Here is some alternatives as well as a phone screen mockup
Here is Fun's next to mine

As the kbird, maybe his name could be Ben, or Bin, or Binny the bird? Binjamin is pretty hilarious

details: font is poppins. program is adobe illustrator.

UPDATE: Thoughts on this one?

Lovely!

Regarding the name: In a lot of languages, cockatoos are spelled with a K, e.g. German „Kakadu“, Dutch „Kaketoe“, so a name starting with K would make sense, and there’s quite some Germanic names start with K, e.g. Karl, Klara, Katharina, Konrad, and many more. I personally like Klara, sounds like something a cockatoo would say on repeat. Just an idea.
