Logo for independent project

To make my logo for the independent project I first started by creating a cloud shape with a soft blue-grey colour.
 I then added the title, in white, which is "Wandering dream" I came up with this working title because both clouds and dreams have a sort of wandering quality to them since you can't really fully capture or contain them and they often have a mind of their own. 

Therefore I wanted to include this cloud motif and to make the text a bit cloudlike I experimented with a negative space technique by trying to add a white cloud under "wandering" which I could put the word "dream" in made from the same colour as the cloud however this didn't really work. Instead I opted for just having the white text on the cloud which still is sort of negative space, since I used a textured eraser to make the text seem sort of like gaps in the cloud. 
I also textured the cloud to make it look a bit realistic.

Since this logo might be too complicated for some uses I tried to make a more simplified version. I tried making a version with just the "WD" letters on a simple cloud background but I didn't really like how this looked since it looked like a logo that might already exist and also didn't really explain the idea I am aiming to convey in this project.

Therefore I made this simplified version which I think looks a bit cartoon like. This logo would probably be used in cases where the other cannot since I prefer the more realistic logo since it conveys the sort of imagery I am aiming for in this project, which is a calming and relaxing sort of environment and the imagery of a soft cloud is quite comforting but also quite simple. I do think the logo could be more unique/interesting but I didn't want to overcomplicate it. Another thing I think the logo is missing is some sort of connection to VR, I guess in a way the shape of the cloud could represent this but I think that would be a bit of a stretch and not really noticeable.
