Thanks for the comments guys, I really appreciate them. I will try and reduce from the bevel of the band member icons, definitely sounds promising or, I can try and set the blend mode of the symbols to "Overlay" and see how that works out. Thanks for the comments.

And Bazza, I definitely get what you mean about the varied styles. This is simply a phase where I'm trying out different styles, it all adds up to the final portfolio but rest assured I will be posting some new work for you and the rest of the community to look at.

Thanks again for all the comments. All are appreciated
