Here is my entry to : Slothicorn Logo Contest: Best Design is Rewarded 30 SBD

Slothicorn is getting a total rebrand. We are looking for a simple, futuristic logo, icon (for steemit, Twitter and Discord) and profile header, as well as some footer graphics. We are looking for a futuristic font and a simple design for the logo.

So, what is Slothicorn ?

Slothicorn is an artist collective on the Steem blockchain whose mission is two-fold:

1. To help artists become educated in the new crypto economy.

2. To help cryptocurrency go mainstream through art.

Before I started to work at any logo idea for @slothicorn I needed to have a better understanding who they are, what they do, and most important how the Slothicorn idea started.

After few searches I found out that an Italian chef made "World’s most delicious Pizza ever" and "on top of its sublime crust, a mystical creature was born… this was the birth of the Slothicorn."

PS: If you want to read the whole story and find out what this community is about, I invite you to read this post.

After reading that post I understand few things.
The logo need to include :

A cute sloth.
A unicorn horn on the head of the cute sloth.
Pizza ! (initially I had no idea how to insert a slice of pizza into the logo)
Space ... Why space ? Because the second picture in the post I mentioned above there is with a sloth on a pizza floating in space. So I was thinking it will be nice to add one space element.
Simple and futuristic.
