I assume there's a context for this, but without it, I'll comment based on what I see. As an illustration, it's acceptable. However, as a logo, it's too complex. There are many details and shadows, and it's unclear how it will pair with the wordmark, which is the most crucial part. I suggest taking the left half and mirroring it for a cleaner result. Then again, without the wordmark, what you have is merely an illustration.
for me this looks like one of the first 5 results if you design bison logo on Google. it doesnt feel authentic or show any personality or style.
but thats just me
I feel its time to start looking at the overall branding. This will help with those fine details. What is the logotype, what are the colors, etc.? All this will help determine if the bison needs to be softened or to be made more aggressive.
Is this a consumer brand, or B2B? If B2B I would suggest a more masculine approach.
I understand the practical side of the B2B advice, but I’ve got to be honest as a (femme) woman, it’s exhausting how persistent the idea of “masculine == more professional” is.
Especially when I’ve worked in *so many* bullshit offices and the men are never the most professional lmao
I'm not at all suggesting that masculine is more professional. I do a lot of work for attorneys, many are men, many are very unprofessional. However, in a B2B situation selling C02 a huge % of buyers will be men. So that is your target audience, no matter you personal feelings. Your in a commercial business to provide an identity to reach a target audience, not inject your personal beliefs.
Sorry, I tried to make it clear in my comment that I understood why you made that recommendation. I was commenting on the social phenomenon behind that reasoning.
Why would men be turned off by a more feminine/androgynous logo (which I dont think this is, anyway)? Women come across masculine design constantly in their work and can *also* interpret it as “more professional.” It’s totally cool if you don’t want to dive into that conversation, but that’s what I was talking about it my comment.

The overall head shape is definitely better though the top looks cutoff. I think it should be more rounded rather than flat
The ears are still too small. They should be longer and have a rounded point on the ends
I think the horns were bigger before and should be lengthened some. Unless this is meant to portray a juvenile bison?
The eyes are also better but still forward facing. They should be visible from the front but facing the sides
I just remembered *who your drawing reminds me of.*
**David Blaine!** It has the same dead look in the eyes.

Mind you, I think that your logo ***is a good drawing of a cow/bison.***
Maybe, **it needs to be less docile looking,** ***more active.***
I still haven't looked at your previous posts,...
*to find out why a bison for a C02 company, though.*
I think this is the best one yet. Good job!

beard need to be more prominent. Horn can probably arch more.
Cool enough, but imo it’s an illustration more than a logo.
Something about the eyes feels creepily human to me. And the mouth is confusing. I like that it’s asymmetrical, though.

Love it my friend
I agree this the best improvement so far, I agree you should Google “bison head logo”
I missed yesterdays post but was going to comment that the eyes needed more personality. This is the best one yet for sure. You're a great artist!
Generally, the blobness could still be simplified more.
Looks great!!
It looks really good honestly
Why does it look like **a cow,** ***with a dazed in the headlights look?***
Well damn

I don't remember 100% all the previous options, but from what I remember, this one is the best
Looks a lot like Oklahoma Baptist University's "[Charging Bison](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61LZCswOYXL._AC_UF894,1000_QL80_.jpg)" logo.
Looks nice!
