Contest $25 - Native American Tribal Style Logo / Emblem Design

I'm looking to have a tribal version of the Seattle Seahawks logo designed. I would like the design to be in the style of this: http://i.imgur.com/KwjMPAE.png
The design should be completely different then the above image, just in the same tribal style that it is in.
Preferred colors are:
#002244 - Navy
#69be28 - Green
#a5acaf - Light Gray
#818a8f - Dark Gray
#002c5f - Blue
You do not have to use all of these colors in your design. If you would like to step away from these colors, you should keep the color scheme basic with few colors, likely of the same tone. Ideas for other color schemes would be: black and white, green / brown (nature).

If you're looking for visual design inspiration, do a Google Images search for: native american tribal art
That general style and those colors are pretty awesome.

My general thought was to have the design be that of a bird / flying creature.

Beyond that, I would like to see you guys use your imaginations. You're the artists, so I would like to see what you can come up with. If you have different stylistic ideas, and wish to step away from the tribal style that I've requested, feel free. I'm looking forward to seeing what you guys can come up with.

The number 12 (in digits or text) can be worked in stylistically if desired, but not mandatory.

A few words of design encouragement:
- Native American tribal art
- retro
- distressed
- sheek

Design must be in vector format.
I will select a winner on Sunday evening 11/24 (US).
Payment will be made via PayPal.
If you have any questions, please ask.

 

What text is needed in the logo? "The number 12"? Native american tribal art style is a quite challenge, but definitely one of the best styles ever (My No.1 is Swiss).

 

No text is necessary, I can add that in myself. The number 12 (in text or numeral format) can be added at the designer's discretion.
I would be interested in seeing some examples of Swiss art. Google Images search didn't clarify that style well enough for me.

 

my try

 

I like your design quite a bit, pehulz. Would you mind making it larger and adding a bit more detail to the feathers? I'm thinking a gray accent line / mark on them?

 

Hi again,

here are my designs.


The first with the number, outer glow and shadow, second one is sitting, the last one is in move. Visit this link for greater resolution:

Hi,
Thank you for your feedbacks.
Here's the revisions

 

DenisaFrisk: These look great. The legs look a little ill positioned to my eye. Could you move them back a bit on the body and rotate them a little? Beyond that I like this quite a bit, good work!

 

pehulz: That was exactly what I was asking for. Perfect.
