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?

Good work mate, personally I'd like it more with black eye though.

I like this, but I'd prefer a solid background (just personal taste but the color crossfade backgrounds always remind of WordArt).

though it does stand out more, i felt like adding a stroke makes it look more unrelated and pasted on if that makes sense? like someone took a random bird icon and threw it on a gradient bg. so i wanted it to feel a little bit more integrated. i dont mind the stroke as much as i thought upon seeing your version, tho. i added a stroke to mine just to see and i dont think its too bad
